: They occupied the Phillippines
After the Spanish-American War the US required Spain to sell the islands to the US for $20,000,000. There followed a local war called the Philippine-Ameircan War in the Philippines and the Philippine insurrection in the US, in which Filipinos tried to obtain complete independence. The US prevailed and governed the Philippines (except during the Japanese occupation during World War 2) until 1946 when full independence was granted.

A war fough by the US in the 1900s?
The Philippine Insurrection, which may have been renamed in the 21st century as the Philippine-American War (1900-1902). This conflict, was properly named and in reality, an "insurrection" against the US government; as the US had won the Philippines from Spain during the Spanish-American War of 1898. Which is an ironic twist...as the Philippine Insurrection (or Philippine-American War) was far bloodier, and lasted much longer, than the Spanish-American War that had spawned it.
