The Spanish-American War was fought between Spain and the United States over control of Cuba and the Philippines. US troops landed in Cuba and defeated Spanish forces, establishing US control over Cuba. The US navy blockaded Santiago de Cuba and defeated the Spanish navy, either sinking or stranding their ships. As a result, Cuba was placed under US protection and the Philippines were purchased from Spain for $20 million.

11. Spanish-American War
The war was fought between Spain and the United States over the Spanish
colonies of the Philippines and Cuba. On June 22, 1898, the United States landed
15,000 soldiers south-east of Santiago de Cuba. The troops engaged and
defeated Spanish land forces on July 1 at the city’s outer defences at El Caney,
Kettle Hill, San Juan Hill, and Las Guásimas. Meanwhile, US naval forces
blockaded the harbour of Santiago de Cuba. When the Spanish ships tried to
cross the blockade, they were pursued by US naval vessels and either sunk or
run aground. At the end of the war Cuba was placed under US protection and
the Philippines were bought by the US for $20 million.
