During William McKinley's presidency from 1897 to 1901, the United States experienced significant economic growth and expansion. He led the nation through the Spanish-American War in 1898, resulting in the U.S. acquiring territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. McKinley also supported the Gold Standard Act, which established gold as the sole backing for U.S. currency, and focused on tariff reforms. His presidency was tragically cut short when he was assassinated in September 1901.
