Answer 1

The answer is option D.The false statement is that the Spanish-American War had no impact on the Philippines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The false statement is D. The Spanish-American War had no impact on the Philippines.

After winning the Spanish-American War, the United States fought the Philippine-American War against rebel forces. The rebels had helped the United States defeat the Spanish, but they wanted independence from American rule.

The United States did not purchase the Philippines from Spain. It was actually sold to the United States for $20 million as part of the Treaty of Paris, which ended the war.

The Spanish-American War had a significant impact on the Philippines, leading to the Philippine-American War and ultimately the colonization of the Philippines by the United States.
