Answer:

Cuba was not received by the United States as a result of the Spanish-American War.

Explanation:

The Spanish-American War was a military conflict between Spain and the United States in 1898. In the course of hostilities, the United States captured Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines, that belonged to the Kingdom of Spain since the 16th century.

Cuba, although it was one of the battle scenarios, did not fall under American sovereignty at the end of the war, but instead gained its independence from Spain, becoming a sovereign nation.
