Between which years did the USA occupy Cuba as a result of the Platt Amendment?

The Platt Amendment, passed in 1901, established the terms under which the United States would end its military occupation of Cuba following the Spanish-American War. While the amendment did grant Cuba nominal independence, it also reserved the right for the U.S. to intervene in Cuban affairs and maintain a naval base at Guantanamo Bay.

The correct timeframe for the U.S. occupation of Cuba that stems from this amendment is from 1906 to 1909 and then again from 1917 to 1922. The first occupation occurred when civil unrest erupted in Cuba, prompting the U.S. to intervene militarily in 1906 to stabilize the situation. This occupation lasted until 1909. The second occupation began in 1917 due to instability and the threat of German influence during World War I, persisting until 1922.

This context highlights the U.S. approach to Cuban sovereignty and the influence of the Platt Amendment, which essentially allowed for extensive American involvement in Cuban governance and military affairs during these periods.
