William McKinley was the 25th president of the United States serving from 1897 until his death in 1901.

McKinley was able to get the United States back on track in the economy, and was an imperialist. He was president during the entirety of the Spanish-American war. While he was a president that was able to prepare America for the 20th century, there were a lot of shady sides to his administration.
