Pretend you are President McKinley,
in the space below write an answer to
Spain's request.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

This would be the answer to Spain's request.

To her Royalty Majestic Government,

It is with the utmost respect that I answer your previews letter regarding the shameful incident of the sinking of the USS Main on the coast of the Island of Cuba, on February 15, 1898.

The United States has deeply researched the case and the version is totally different from the information you are sharing in your letter.

As you would understand, the United States is in a state of shock after that terrible incident. We consider this as ad direct aggression to the US Navy and a flagrant act of war against the United States of America.

Regretfully, the United States government has to make some difficult decisions concerning this incident and at this very moment, I am about to address Congress to make a final decision on this case.

As soon as we have concluded on a final decision we will be accordingly informed.

the fact that could also be added to column b is that during world war ii, specifically between the years 1941 and 1945, japan expanded its territory towards the indonesian territory in what was known later as part of the "pacific war". in that time, japan could conquer the philipines, singapore,   borneo, central java, malang, cebu, sumatra and various other islands of the area, therefore expanding its territory for a brief period of time.

honestly i love the walking dead, mainly the quotes. “well, pardon me young man, excuse the [insert bad word here] out of my gosh darn french, but did you just threaten me? ” sksk (of course it's not the exact words)
