    If I recall correctly, the Spanish ceded PR, Cuba, the Philippines, and Guam to the United States following their defeat in the Spanish-American War. Cuba and the Philippines eventually became sovereign nations while PR and Guam have not.
    where did i deny that we're NOT a sovereign country? quote me

    i said that we're a country, contrary to what several people in here said

      as long as i don't have to risk my life to live away from my country, i'm a happy camper

      i'd be happier if we were able to prosper without the US, but hey, better to be a dependent country legally than being a dependent country illegally

          Cool.

          Because of my age and the constant tries of americans to make us forget about our history, I dont even know why the La Borinqueña was made our hymn.

          I swear, when I was in ninth great we had a reunion of schools, they played La Borinqueña and one of those schools didnt even know the first verse.

          Really painful and embarrasing to watch.

              So what we're actually arguing here is the definition of the word "country?"

              The meaning I was using was "sovereign nation." Obviously that isn't the meaning you are using. We're on the same page now, right?

                  they were off topic and i went through ever single one of them and singled them as so

                  did the US SUPREME COURT forgot that the US president is out president?

                  did the US SUPREME COURT forgot that PR uses US currency?

                  did the US SUPREME COURT forgot that we have the same passport as you guys?

                  somehow, i really, really doubt it

                  like i said, i NEVER denied that we're a territory, but you denied that PR is a country. i posted proof of this, but you insist on going against the US SUPREME COURT. not my fault

                  anyway... didn't you say you were done here? be consistent on what you say

                      yeah, we were arguing here whether PR is a country or not

                      i never denied us not being free of sovereign. there's a famous song in the PR title "i want for my Borinquen to be free and sovereign!"

                      lol trust me, we have that part of our reality very, very clear
