This is more looking forward into the 1900s, so I've decided to post it here. What would have become of Cuba, the Philippines, and Guam if Spain hadn't lost those territories in the war? Would they eventually be able to break away from Spain, or would Japan, Imperial Germany, or another power possibly acquire them through purchase or invasion? What kind of impact would there be on Spanish politics? What about American interactions with the Philippines and Cuba, and the crucial role of Guam as a Pacific base for the United States?
