After what late 19th century war did the Philippines, Puerto Rico, and Guam become U.S. territories?
NO. Imperialism and subjugation of other peoples is almost never justified. The crimes and atrocities that the US committed in Cuba and the Philippines are innumerable.
It is thought that Chinese came to the Philippines beginning with the 9th century. Chinese in the Philippines comprise one of the largest overseas Chinese cultures in Southeast Asia.
If I understand the question, the answer is no. Spain acquired the islands in the 16th century and held them as an imperial possession until the Spanish-American War in 1898. The only fighting in the Philippines which I am aware of was the Battle of Manila Bay. It was fought entirely between the US and Spanish navies. After acquiring the Philippines, the US then fought a three-year war against Filipino insurrectionists. Later, the Philippines and US fought together against Japan in World War 2, and the Philippines gained its independence from the US after that war ended. Cuba did help in the Spanish-American War because Cubans were already engaged in a fight for independence from Spain.

At the turn of the 20th century, Americans did have an interest in the Philippines, having just acquired them following victory in a spectacularly short war with Spain and being involved in military pacification of the nationalists there. At the turn of the 19th century, most American had no interest in the Philippines because the country was focused on expanding into the American continent.
