AP US History
Unit 8 – The Postwar Period and Cold War, 1945–1980
Topic 8.7
How could the Spanish-American War end differently, impacting future American imperialism?
If Spain had defeated USA, it could limit American expansion and imperial ambitions in Caribbean and Pacific.
It wouldn’t affect America’s Pan-American policy or subsequent involvement in Asia-Pacific region issues.
Even if Spain won, it wouldn't change much about U.S.'s standing as a world power.
Still Spain would cede Philippines to U.S due to its internal crisis and economic instability.
