Spanish-American War The U.S. sent the boat the USS Maine to sail around the island of Cuba to show the Cubans that they support their independence from Spain.

The USS Maine Blew Up!

THE WAR BEGINS! For the first time, the U.S. fought a war as a country outside of the U.S. The U.S. attacked the Spanish in Cuba, and they went after their colonies in the South Pacific Ocean because they thought Spain blew the boat up!

Rough Riders Future President of the United State, Theodore Roosevelt, led a group of soldiers into Cuba. They were really successful. They were called the Rough Riders!

The War Is Over America was too powerful for the Spanish and they won the war in 10 months! President McKinley and the U.S. won their first war overseas. At the Treaty of Paris they got a bunch of former Spanish colonies in the Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico.

Why is this special? FIRSTS! This was the first time America had control of land overseas! This was the first time America won a war that happened outside of the U.S. This was the first time America was looked at as a strong country! European countries started to second guess messing with the U.S.
