Answer: The Philippines became a US territory while Cuba became independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

After the Spanish-American war, the U.S. gained control of both Cuba and the Philippines. In the case of Cuba however, Cuba gained independence almost immediately even though their Constitution had provisions which allowed for significant U.S. control in the country.

For the Philippines however, the U.S. gained control of the nation as a territory and ruled it with a measure of self governance until 1946 when the Philippines became fully independent.
