How would acquiring new land provide benefits to the country

When Puerto Rico became part of the United States

after the Spanish-American War, many Puerto Ricans

feared that the United States would not give them the

measure of self-rule that they had gained under the

Spanish. Puerto Rican statesman and publisher Luis

Muñoz Rivera was one of the most vocal advocates of

Puerto Rican self-rule. Between 1900 and 1916, he lived

primarily in the United States and continually worked

for the independence of his homeland. Finally, in

1916, the U.S. Congress, facing possible war in Europe

and wishing to settle the issue of Puerto Rico, invited

Muñoz Rivera to speak. On May 5, 1916, Muñoz Rivera

stood before the U.S. House of Representatives to discuss the future of Puerto Rico.

Because acquiring new land brings people that are not from that country interested in land, so they would most likely move there knowing there is added land so they can raise a farm, or buy the land. (This was my own words so dont judge im bad at talking/texting)
