The Philippine Insurrection, which may have been renamed in the 21st century as the Philippine-American War (1900-1902). This conflict, was properly named and in reality, an "insurrection" against the US government; as the US had won the Philippines from Spain during the Spanish-American War of 1898. Which is an ironic twist...as the Philippine Insurrection (or Philippine-American War) was far bloodier, and lasted much longer, than the Spanish-American War that had spawned it.

: They occupied the Phillippines After the Spanish-American War the US required Spain to sell the islands to the US for $20,000,000. There followed a local war called the Philippine-Ameircan War in the Philippines and the Philippine insurrection in the US, in which Filipinos tried to obtain complete independence. The US prevailed and governed the Philippines (except during the Japanese occupation during World War 2) until 1946 when full independence was granted.
During the 20th century the Philippine-American War was called the "Philippine Insurrection" of 1900. The Philippines were ceded to the US by Spain after their defeat during the Spanish-American War of 1898. US Forces had already been in the Philippines fighting alongside the Philippine citizens against the Spanish. With Spain gone, the US took over and the Philippine people immediately began to resist. Starting in about 1899 the Philippine citizens began to take up arms against the US, by 1900 they were fighting. The revolt was suppressed by 1902.
