What country did Puerto Rico get its independence?
Although Puerto Rico is a country, it is not an independent country. Puerto Rico is a US territory, officially known Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Estado Libre Asociado in Spanish). There are some who believe that Puerto Rico was on its way to independence when Spain granted the Island an Autonomic Charter (Carta Autonómica) which granted many political and administrative privileges, but all this came to a halt in 1898. In 1898, Spain lost the Spanish-American War to the USA. Puerto Rico was part of the war booty that Spain had to turn over to the USA government. Until 1952, the Island was considered simply a territory. In 1952, the United Nations pressured the United States until it granted Puerto Rico its own Constitution, and permitted its citizens to vote for their own governor instead of being governed by an appointed governor.
