Battles during the spanish-american war took place in the philippines as well as the caribbean. true or false

The answer it TRUE.

The Spanish-American War was war fought between the United States and Spain in 1898 that put an end to Spanish colonial rule in the American Continent and resulted in American acquisition of territories in the western Pacific and Latin America. The battles of this war took place in the Caribbean and the Pacific, as Spain held territories in these areas. One of the major battles that took place in the Caribbean was the Battle of Santiago de Cuba in which the United States defeated Spanish forces, sealing American victory in the Spanish–American War and leading to Cuban independence from Spanish rule. One of the battles that took place in the Pacific was the battle in Manila Bay in the Philippines, which constituted one of the major battles of the Spanish-American War and the end of the Spanish rule in the Philippines.

hi how are you doing today? if you ever need just tell me

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
