    At the end of the conflict that took place between Spain and the United States around 1898 the most outstanding thing is that, with the defeat of Spain, the island of Cuba was proclaimed in an independent republic, but it was under the tutelage of the USA. Puerto Rico, the Philippines, and Guam became colonial dependencies of the United States.

    All the remaining possessions of Spain in Oceania were sold to Germany for 25 million pesetas.

    It is also important to note that since this war, the US increased its interest in advancing imperialism over Central America, unleashing a great discussion inside and outside the country for this advance. It is an important fact that in 1903 they tried to acquire Panama, which was achieved through direct purchase.

    The Spanish economy took a good profit from the capital that came back to Spain in the form of investments that modernized the Spanish industries, but from the political aspect a great malaise and a political turmoil stirred up this country, which fell into a great conflict known as "the restoration". Spain turned its eyes toward its possessions in Africa.
