美国陆战队登陆关达那摩湾 (Guantanamo
Bay) 1898年6月10日
西元1898年，古巴独立运动导致古巴人与西班牙统治者间的冲突。美国要求西班牙从古巴撤退，并且让岛民能够自治，但是西班牙却拒绝美国的要求，甚而向美国宣战。这场战争也使西班牙在西半球的殖民统治地位宣告终止。
In 1898, an independence movement in Cuba led to conflict between Cubans and their Spanish rulers. The U.S. demanded that Spain withdraw from Cuba and allow the islanders to rule them, but Spain refused and declared war on the U.S. This war would result in the end of Spanish colonial rule in the Western Hemisphere.
