After the Spanish-American War of 1898, the United States took control of the Philippines from Spain. As with Spain's former colonial relationship with Cuba, the United States established a dominant presence in the Philippines, controlling its foreign policy and heavily influencing its domestic affairs. Initially, the US intention was to "civilize" and modernize the Philippines, which is indicative of a colonial attitude similar to that of European nations towards their colonies, including Spain's approach to Cuba before the Spanish-American War.
