An inaccurate statement about America's decision to go to war in 1812 is that it was solely motivated by a desire to expand territory into Canada. While territorial ambitions played a role, the war was primarily driven by issues such as British interference with American shipping, impressment of American sailors into the British navy, and the desire to assert national sovereignty.

What factor is most closely associated with the decision of the United states to declare war on Spain in 1898?

The most closely associated factor with the United States' decision to declare war on Spain in 1898 was the explosion of the USS Maine in Havana harbor, which was widely attributed to Spanish sabotage. This incident, combined with growing public sentiment fueled by sensationalist journalism (often referred to as "yellow journalism") that portrayed Spain as a brutal oppressor in Cuba, galvanized American support for intervention.
