The times surrounding the beginning of the 20th century were both turbulent and exploding with technological development. In 1892, Grover Cleveland was elected to the first and only nonconsecutive 2nd term as president; in 1902, William McKinley became the third president to be assassinated, making Theodore Roosevelt the youngest president to serve in the country’s history. In February 1898, the USS Maine was blown up in Havana harbor, precipitating the Spanish-American War.
