A proposito di questo titolo

In 1898, the United States fought a brief war with Spain that would transform it from a continental republic into a global empire. This episode opens with the explosion of the USS Maine in Havana Harbor, an event that ignited public fury and led to war. We explore the tensions in Cuba, the expansionist ambitions of figures like Theodore Roosevelt, and the key battles—the charge up San Juan Hill and Commodore Dewey's decisive victory at Manila Bay. But the war's aftermath was just as consequential: the US annexed Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, leading to the Philippine-American War and a fierce national debate over imperialism. Lucas and Luna discuss the contradictions between America's founding ideals and its new colonial holdings, the racist rhetoric used to justify expansion, and the legacy of this pivotal moment. Future episodes will trace how this empire evolved through the Panama Canal, World War I, and beyond.
