CLEP US History II

Answer: B - In 1898, American political activists founded the Anti-Imperialist League to oppose the nation’s imperialist foreign policy. The anti-imperialist sentiment was primarily the result of the United States’ involvement in the Philippines, which it purchased from Spain (along with Guam and Puerto Rico) through the Treaty of Paris of 1898, following the Spanish-American War. The island nation was not granted its full independence until 1946.
