A war fought between the Philippines and the United States from 1899 to 1902. Since August 1896, an independence revolution to overthrow Spanish colonial rule had been underway in the Philippines. At the same time, an independence revolution against Spain had also begun in Cuba in February 1895. The United States, which had huge economic interests in Cuba, declared war on Spain on April 25, 1898 (Spanish-American War) on the pretext of Cuban independence, and intervened in the situation in the Philippines. The United States initially claimed to support the Philippine independence movement, but the American forces that occupied Manila Bay on May 1 of the same year refused to cooperate with the revolutionary forces and voluntarily surrendered Manila on August 13. Peace treaty negotiations with Spain began in late September, and the two countries signed the Treaty of Paris on December 10. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
1899‐1902年にフィリピンとアメリカの間で戦われた戦争。1896年8月以来フィリピンではスペインの植民地支配を打倒する独立革命が進行していた。おりしもキューバでも95年2月からスペインに対する独立革命が始まっていた。キューバに莫大な経済権益をもつアメリカは,キューバ独立を大義名分に98年4月25日スペインに宣戦布告し(米西戦争),フィリピン情勢にも介入した。アメリカは当初フィリピン独立運動支援を唱えたが,同年5月1日マニラ湾を占領したアメリカ軍は,革命軍との連帯を拒否して8月13日に単独でマニラを開城,9月下旬よりスペインと講和条約交渉に入り,12月10日両国間でパリ条約に調印した。
