The destruction of the USS Maine in Havana Harbor in February 1898 was a pivotal event that escalated tensions between the United States and Spain, ultimately leading to the Spanish-American War. The explosion was blamed on Spanish sabotage, though investigations later suggested it was likely an accident. This incident galvanized public opinion in the U.S., fueled by sensationalist journalism, and prompted calls for intervention in Cuba's struggle for independence from Spain. As a result, the U.S. declared war on Spain in April 1898, marking a significant shift in American foreign policy and leading to the U.S. emergence as a global power.
