According to the Treaty of Paris, which ended the Spanish-American War in 1898, the United States acquired Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines from Spain. In exchange, the U.S. paid Spain $20 million. This treaty marked a significant expansion of U.S. territories and influence, signaling its emergence as a global power. Additionally, it effectively ended Spanish colonial rule in the Americas.
