What is a major natural disaster or anii disater that happened in 1890s to 1899??
look up the volcano KRAKATOA in indonesia, this had global impact for the next ten years,, the winters were colder, snow was deeper, summers hotter, and wetter, the summer storms much more severe, little difference in local or domestic political considerations, would be called real global warming by todays standards.
Reply:Spanish American War started in 1898. It wasn't really set off by the explosion of the Maine, but you can use that as a disaster.
Reply:I agree with robert r. The greatest natural disaster during this period was the explosion of the Krakatoa volcano on August 26, 1883, and the resultant tsunami which drowned 36,417 people.
Reply:The Johnstown Flood of 1899 was the biggest disaster in the United States of that era.
