Annexation to Spain and the Restoration WarAnexión a España y Guerra de la Restauración · 1861–1865

President Pedro Santana engineered re-annexation to Spain in 1861 during the US Civil War. American newspapers tracked the fierce Dominican Restoration War (1863–1865), Spanish casualties, and Spain's withdrawal as a triumph of anti-colonial resistance.El presidente Pedro Santana gestionó la reanexión a España en 1861.

SummaryResumen

Based on the provided newspaper excerpt, the Dominican Republic has ended and been annexed by Spain, though Spain finds the acquisition less than a bargain and is constrained by Castilian pride from backing out. No great powers have recognized the island as a Spanish province, while the consulates of France, England, and the United States maintain a modest presence. Spain is proposing several measures—including a new tariff, making Samana a free port, exercising religious tolerance, and encouraging global emigration—while the city has materially benefited from the change in government.

A tenor del extracto periodístico, la República Dominicana dejó de existir y fue anexionada por España, si bien esta última encuentra la adquisición poco provechosa y se ve refrenada por el orgullo castellano para desistir de ella. Ninguna de las grandes potencias ha reconocido la isla como provincia española, en tanto que los consulados de Francia, Inglaterra y los Estados Unidos mantienen una discreta presencia. España proyecta varias medidas —entre ellas un nuevo arancel, habilitar Samaná como puerto franco, garantizar la tolerancia religiosa y fomentar la inmigración internacional—, mientras que la ciudad se ha beneficiado materialmente con el cambio de gobierno.
