Rex Ziak (pronounced "zeek") is a writer, historian, tour guide, and documentarian, who lives in Naselle, Washington, United States.
 Known for his Lewis and Clark studies, he is the author of "In Full View."
 After careful study of the expedition's journals and of the geography of the Columbia River estuary, Ziak discovered the previously unknown fact that from November 7, 1805 to December 6, the Lewis and Clark expedition stayed in what is now Pacific County, along the Long Beach Peninsula.
 This finding took six years for Ziak to piece together, using the comments in the expedition's journals to find the locations the explorers stopped at on their trip.
 A controversy arose between Oregon, long considered the end of the expedition, and Washington's historians over Ziak's findings, with many historians in Washington and elsewhere supporting his discovery and many in Oregon opposing it.
 In 1999, soon after his announcement, Ziak and David Nicandri, director of the Washington State Historical Society, began petitioning to give the newly found ending location, a camping spot called Station Camp, National Landmark Status.
 In addition, that year, US Representative Brian Baird had an amendment passed that changed the "federal designation of the Lewis and CLark National Historic Trail as ending not in Oregon but in Oregon and Washington."
The Republic of Cuba (Spanish: República de Cuba) of 1902 to 1959, refers to the historical period in Cuba from 1902, when Cuba seceded from US rule in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War that took Cuba from Spanish rule in 1898, until the Cuban Revolution of 1959.
 Cuban independence from the United States was guaranteed in the Platt Amendment proposed to the United States Congress in 1901.
 It was officially a representative democracy though at times it became controlled by a military junta.
 The Cuban Revolution of 1959 massively changed Cuban society, creating a socialist state and ended US economic dominance in Cuba.
Tomás Estrada Palma (July 9, 1835 – November 4, 1908) was a Cuban political figure.
 Estrada Palma helped gather assistance from the United States and was a participant in the Spanish–American War.
 He served as the first President of Cuba between May 20, 1902 and September 28, 1906.
 During Estrada Palma's presidency, he improved Cuba’s infrastructure, communication, and public health.
 In Cuba, he is remembered for allowing the Platt Amendment to be enacted in the country.
 The Platt Amendment would ensure American political and economic dominance over Cuba.
The Enforcement Acts were three bills passed by the United States Congress between 1870 and 1871.
 They were criminal codes which protected African-Americans’ right to vote, to hold office, to serve on juries, and receive equal protection of laws.
 Passed under the presidency of Ulysses S. Grant, the laws also allowed the federal government to intervene when states did not act to protect these rights.
 The acts passed following the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution, which gave full citizenship to anyone born in the United States or freed slaves, and the Fifteenth Amendment, which banned racial discrimination in voting.
This article includes information on actions described as terrorist acts in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1992-2003), Serbia & Montenegro (2003-2006) and The Republic of Serbia (2006 onwards).
 In the former Yugoslavia, terrorism was prominent and stemmed from anti-royalist and anti-communist sentiment.
 With the breakup of Yugoslavia, civil war erupted in the former socialist republics of Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
 In the period post 1991, terrorism related to anti-communist sentiment was now shifting to terrorism relating to Kosovo separatism.
 With the formation of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1992, Kosovo kept its status as an autonomous province of the Republic of Serbia.
 Starting in the 1990s.
 The KLA began committing widespread terrorist attacks in order to destabilise the region, hoping the United States and NATO would intervene in order to aid in creating an independent Kosovo .
 US, British and German secret services subsequently began arming and training KLA terrorists from 1996 onwards.
 The KLA cemented itself as the main terrorist organisation operating in the province of Kosovo in order to achieve independence for Kosovo.
On March 2, 1901, the Platt Amendment was passed as part of the 1901 Army Appropriations Bill.
 It stipulated seven conditions for the withdrawal of United States troops remaining in Cuba at the end of the Spanish–American War, and an eighth condition that Cuba sign a treaty accepting these seven conditions.
 It defined the terms of Cuban–U.S. relations to essentially be an unequal one of U.S. dominance over Cuba.
The Teller Amendment was an amendment to a joint resolution of the United States Congress, enacted on April 20, 1898, in reply to President William McKinley's War Message.
 It placed a condition on the United States military's presence in Cuba.
 According to the clause, the U.S. could not annex Cuba but only leave "control of the island to its people."
 In short, the U.S. would help Cuba gain independence and then withdraw all its troops from the country.
National Affairs is a quarterly magazine in the United States about political affairs that was first published in September 2009.
 Its founding editor, Yuval Levin, and authors are typically considered to be conservative.
 The magazine is published by National Affairs, Inc., which previously published the magazines "The National Interest" (1985–2001) and "The Public Interest" (1965–2005).
 National Affairs, Inc., was originally run by Irving Kristol, and featured board members such as former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, former ambassador to the United Nations Jeane Kirkpatrick, and author Charles Murray.
For most of its history, Cuba was controlled by foreign powers.
 The country was a Spanish colony from approximately 1511 until 1898.
 The United States governed the nation from 1898–1902, and would intervene in national affairs until the abolishment of the Platt Amendment in 1935.
 The struggle for independence and a national identity was a complex and prolonged affair that began in earnest during the late 18th century and lasted well into the 20th century.
The succession to the Crown of the United Kingdom is determined by the Act of Settlement 1701.
 This Act provided that, should William III and Anne both die without issue, the Crown would be settled on Sophia of Hanover (a granddaughter of King James VI and I) and her Protestant heirs.
 At the time the Act was passed, it was highly likely that both William and Anne would die without issue, and this indeed proved to be the case.
 This law has applied ever since, except for an amendment passed in 1936 that any descendants of Edward VIII would have no claim whatsoever to the Crown.
 This amendment proved academic, as the abdicated King Edward VIII died without issue in 1972.

Question: United States governed Cuba from 1898–1902, and would intervene in national affairs until the abolishment of an amendment passed on what date?
Answer: March 2, 1901
