War breaks out In Spain!
Coming of war
Event that occurred to war.
On February 15, 1898, an explosion RIPPED through the American battleship Maine, sinking the ship and killing 260 sailors. Americans responded with outrage, assuming that Spain, which controlled Cuba as a colony, had sunk the ship. Two months later, the slogan "Remember the Maine" carried the U.S.
Americans, what were you thinking?
American's felt that it was unnecessary because of the fact that the Bond Warship and the Maine was destroyed in terms for the Cubans.
Yellow Journalism.
They put fake interviews in the papers, and also put misleading headlines into the papers as well.
Why war broke out.
What pushed us into war was the fact that the Spanish Government blew up the ship, “Maine”.
