Puerto Rico became a U.S. territory as a result of the Spanish-American War in 1898. Following the war, the Treaty of Paris was signed, leading Spain to cede Puerto Rico, along with Guam and the Philippines, to the United States. This marked the beginning of U.S. governance over the island, which was formalized through the Foraker Act in 1900, establishing a civilian government. Today, Puerto Rico remains a U.S. territory, with its residents being U.S. citizens since 1917.
