The USA gained control over the Philippines by inserting their army and navy into their ocean and ground. They kept control between the years 1895 and 1898.
The USA granted the Philippines independence in 1946 after 11 years of establishing approval and electing the first president.
The USA contributed to relief efforts after the typhoon by giving $87.5 million, evacuated over 21,000 people, including citizens of the Philippines, the United States, and many other foreign nationals, and deployed the United States Agency for International Development and Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance crisis response teams to oversee military operations, and coordinate the US government response with the government of the Philippines.
