Causes of the Spanish American War

Cuba Spanish Colony In 1868 a rebellion against Spain began. A second rebellion began in 1895.

Harsh treatment of Cubans New Spanish Governor, General Verliano Weyler was sent to Cuba to punish Cubans. Cubans were placed in detention camps 100,000 Cubans died.

The U.S.A. is Concerned Cuba is only 90 miles from Miami. Our trade relationship with Cuba was worth over $100 million. Should the U.S. get involved?

Yellow Journalism A sensational reporting style that stirs the emotions of readers, and stretches the truth. Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst used this style to sell more newspapers.

Jingoism A strong sense of patriotism is created due to yellow journalism

Example of Yellow Journalism “Butcher’ Weyler has left Cuba awash in blood, blood on the roadsides, blood in the fields, blood on the doorsteps, everywhere blood.”

“Remember the Maine!” The U.S.S. Maine was a battleship that was sent to protect American businessmen in Cuba. This ship mysteriously exploded on February 25, 1898 260 American sailors died. This was the immediate cause for the start of the war.

The SPARK that ignited a war! U.S.S. Maine The SPARK that ignited a war!

No, Not John Maine, NY Mets Pitcher

WAR! The United States declared war on Spain on April 25, 1898
