The US acquired several different pieces of land outside the continental US between 1867-1906. This includes:

1) Guam

2) Puerto Rico

3) Phillipines

4) Hawaii

Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Phillipines were all taken over by the US after the Spanish American War of 1898. This war saw the US helped free Cuba from Spanish control. Along with this, the Spanish agreed to relinquish control of the rest of their colonies in the Western Hemisphere.

Besides this, the US also took over Hawaii. This was done by helping Hawaiin citizens overthrow their queen and establishing a democratic system similar to the one the United States has during this time.

mamaluj [8]

Southern states wanted to decide for themselves if slavery was to be legal;they were not allowing northern states to make such decisions for them. People from the North found the practice to be so reprehensible that they wanted to force the South to stop the practice. While slavery was a significant <span>reason for the civil war, states’ rights divided the nation.</span>
