Tuhia tētahi tohutoro mō tēnei wāhanga - I riro i a Roosevelt tētahi whenua i wahia e te tautohetohe mō ngā rohe i riro i te Pakanga Paniora-Amerika. I whakapono a Roosevelt me tere te whakawhiwhia ki a Cuba te mana motuhake me noho tonu a Puerto Rico hei mana motuhake i raro i nga tikanga o te Ture Foraker. I hiahia a ia kia noho tonu ngā hōia o U.S. ki Piripi ki te whakatū i tētahi kāwanatanga pūmautanga, manapori, ahakoa i te aroaro o tētahi whakakeke
i arahina e Emilio Aguinaldo. I wehi a Roosevelt ka tere te wehenga atu o te US ka arahi ki te koretake i nga Philippines, ki te whakauru ranei o tetahi mana nui penei i a Tiamana, a Japan ranei.
