Best Answer

The Phillipines. The US had just acquired them from Spain in 1898 and there was some resistance to this. The main resistance came from indigenous tribal peoples whose land was being seized by US settlers for cattle and fruit production. The US sent in troops to crush these tribes and successfully exterminated about 500000 of them between 1899 and 1902. This is why there are no native aboriginal tribes left in the Phillipines-the genocide was 100%.
