This Day In History:
The U.S. Navy Ship USS Maine exploded in Havana Harbor, Cuba, sparking the Spanish-American war.
260 American sailors were killed and Spain had been acting cruel towards the Cuban natives so war was inevitable.
Turns out it was likely an accident that one of our biggest warships blew up in not so friendly waters but anyway the U.S. wiped the floor with Spain and gained some useful territory🇺🇸💥🦅
