With the Treaty of Paris signed in 1898, Spain ceded Cuba, Guam, and Puerto Rico to the United States. It also ceded sovereignty over the Philippines to the United States for $20 million. Now, America, not Spain, was king of the oceans.
But the story didn't end there; in fact, it was just beginning. Trade, money, war, sovereignty, and maps are all part of this story. Most interestingly, cigarettes are also part of this story. And you all know those brands, perhaps even use them every day.
