Assignment 9 Modern Latin America Andrew Elsey
The document discusses several topics related to Latin America's wars of independence from European colonial rule in the 19th century, including:
1) The Haitian War of Independence from 1791-1803 began as a struggle between white planters and mixed/black races and became a race war dominated by blacks.
2) Latin American wars for independence from 1810-1824 were driven by political, economic, and social grievances against European colonial powers like Spain and Portugal.
3) Internal conflicts in Latin America continued throughout the 19th century, driven by factors like ideology, territorial disputes, the rise of caudillos (strongmen), and foreign intervention.
Guatemala Presentation
Guatemala declared independence from Spain in 1821 but has experienced significant political instability since, including a long civil war. Poverty is widespread, with over half the population living below the national poverty line. A key factor contributing to Guatemala's problems has been the influence of the United Fruit Company, a U.S. corporation that came to dominate the country's economy in the early 20th century and had ties to dictatorships. The company was accused of exploiting workers and influencing politics to its benefit until its land holdings were nationalized in 1952, leading the U.S. to back a coup that overthrew the government. Guatemala's history since has been marked by continued violence, human rights issues, and uneven
Latin america
Latin America contains many different cultures that were impacted by the slave trade. In Bolivia, indigenous groups like the Quechua and Aymara were forced to give up their land and work under Spanish rule. In 1952, Bolivia granted full citizenship to indigenous peoples, but some faced discrimination if they abandoned their heritage. Haiti established itself as the first independent black nation in 1804 with 90% of the population being black.
Modern Latin America
The document discusses the history and current state of Latin America and Venezuela. It describes how Britain and the US came to have economic and political influence in Latin America in the 19th century. It then explains that Venezuela has immense oil wealth but suffers from poverty, violence, and a repressive government under Hugo Chavez, who maintains power through propaganda instead of addressing the country's problems. Despite grounds for revolution, the people continue supporting their leader.
Modern latin america
Britain sought to expand its influence in Latin America following the independence movements of the early 19th century. It supported the Portuguese royal family in exchange for trading privileges. However, failing mining companies and saturated markets led to defaults on loans from British financial centers. Latin American governments then instituted free trade policies to boost exports and renegotiate debts without foreign intervention. Between 1870-1914, Britain's focus on Latin America peaked, but World War I and the rise of U.S. power diminished British presence and changed it from a creditor to a debtor status in the region.
Assignment 7
Britain successfully advanced its economic interests in Latin America during the period of independence in the early 19th century. This marked over 200 years of efforts by British privateers, merchants and officials to break into the Spanish and Portuguese colonial monopolies. Britain negotiated preferential trading privileges with Brazil in 1810 in exchange for support during the Napoleonic Wars. British exports of goods like wheat expanded and more British firms offered services to Latin American producers and consumers. Political outcomes varied across Latin America, with some countries experiencing more instability than others in the early independence period.
Guatemala 1
Guatemala is a Central American country with a population of over 13 million people. Spanish is the most widely spoken language, though over 40 indigenous Mayan languages are also recognized. The majority of Guatemalans are either of mixed indigenous and Spanish descent or European descent. The ancient Maya civilization flourished in Guatemala for over 2000 years and their ruins can still be visited today. Guatemala endured a long civil war and human rights issues, but has worked to improve healthcare, education, and living standards since peace agreements in the 1990s.
Human Rights and Banana Agriculture in Latin America
This document discusses the history of human rights violations related to banana production in Central and South America. It describes how indigenous groups were enslaved by Spanish conquistadors to work on plantations. It also discusses how in the 20th century, democratically elected populist leaders who aimed to improve workers' rights were often overthrown in coups backed by the US and replaced with dictators friendly to American business interests. Even today, working conditions on banana plantations have seen limited improvement, while pesticides used on the plantations have been linked to health issues in nearby villages with little internet access.
Modern latin america
The document discusses several topics related to Latin American history and politics:
1) The Haitian War for Independence from 1791-1803 began as a conflict between white planters and mixed-race affranchis but became a race war as black slaves joined and came to dominate. Some planters fled to Cuba, spreading racial tensions.
2) Latin American wars for independence in the 1800s stemmed from political, economic, and social grievances under colonial rule, which privileged Europeans and peninsulares over criollos and other classes.
3) Newly independent nations faced the challenge of whether to unite or separate as geographical barriers and sparse populations had kept colonial territories isolated under royal authority. This
Modern latin america
1) Britain wanted to increase trade with Latin America after their independence in 1824. British merchants exported goods like cotton and invested in the new governments, but this led to a financial crisis that hurt merchants.
2) Economic interests between Britain and Latin America peaked from the 1870s-1890s as Britain provided loans, infrastructure, and banks for countries like Argentina. After World War I, relations deteriorated as Britain went from creditor to debtor.
3) There were several causes for 19th century wars in Latin America, including ideology of independence from Spain/Portugal, boundary disputes, and fights over territories like Texas.
Colombia notes
The document provides information about the location, government, environment, economy, and history of Colombia. Colombia is located in northern South America, bordering several other South American countries as well as the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean.

A brief history outlines Colombia's time as a Spanish colony, independence as part of Gran Colombia, and periods of political instability and violence in its early republic.
Modern Latin America
Britain's interests in Latin America grew in the early 1800s as Spain lost control over its colonies. Britain invested in Latin American governments and mining ventures. However, Britain's interests and investments declined in the 1920s due to lack of foreign investment from the US and financial crises caused by World War 2. Internal civil wars and conflicts with Spain and the US also increased political instability and debt in Latin America.

These included racial tensions from the Haitian revolution, the struggle between centralist and federalist political factions, boundary disputes between newly independent nations, conflicts over resources like nitrates in the War of the Pacific, the actions of authoritarian leaders known as caudillos who sought to consolidate power, and religious conflicts. European interventions were also a source of war as colonial powers sought to protect their commercial interests in the region.
28-3 Powerpoint: US Economic Imperialism in Latin America
1. After gaining independence in the early 1800s, many Latin American countries struggled with poverty, political instability, and dependence on foreign nations for economic investments.
2. The U.S. came to dominate affairs in Latin America through policies like the Monroe Doctrine and Roosevelt Corollary, which allowed them to intervene militarily.

Modern latin america
- 1. Modern Latin America By Emily Sandford
- 2. Latin American Wars ď‚— Unity â—¦ The people in Latin America struggled to stay unified. Race wars divided white planters and the indigenous people, while the transfer of power from away from the king threatened to create disparity between parts of the population separated by topography.
- 3. Latin American Wars ď‚— Territory â—¦ Latin America has always been at war with the United States over territory. Not only with the United States, but Latin America has been at war with itself like in The War of Triple Alliance. In this war Francisco Solano Lopez planned to conquer parts of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
- 4. Latin America ď‚— Filibustering â—¦ Both America and Latin America participated in filibustering. Land like Baja and Cabo San Lucas were captured using this method. Filibustering happens when a member of parliament delays a decision in order to obstruct legislation.
- 5. LATIN AMERICA The United States Latin America has always been the prime target of the United States. The competition for Latin America is stiff and only heightens the means by which countries acquire it.
- 6. THE SECOND WORLD “BRAZIL” A struggling country due to incompetent leaders, Fernando Henrique Cardoso and Luiz Inacio da Silva, have put Brazil into economic perils. Despite these perils Brazil is rising above them and monopolizing on the resources it possesses, the environment. Brazil is desperately struggling to maintain the Amazon rainforest and with its new environmental energy strategies seems to be doing this.
- 7. THE SECOND WORLD “COLOMBIA” Colombia is well known for its drug trade, rated number one in the world. Clashes between drug lords and the government have made it difficult for Colombia to regain control of its economy, but slowly it has started to. The government has started to improve roads, tunnels, and increased the police force; all of which have helped to crack down on the drug trade.
- 8. THE SECOND WORLD “MEXICO” The only country under with US agreement is at war with itself and its people. NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) was meant to propel Mexico into the first world, but it has yet to happen. Internally drug traffickers and poverty rates are controlling Mexico.
- 9. The Second World “Venezuela” Venezuela is filled with despair. Like other Latin American countries poor leadership has left the Venezuelan people poor and homeless. Hugo Chavez, a left-wing nationalist, has depleted Venezuela’s oil wealth on anything but necessary hospital repairs and affordable housing projects leaving cities in disrepair.
- 10. Alvaro Uribe Velez Velez was the 58th president of Colombia. His career as mayor of Medellin in 1982 then Governor of Antioquia and finally graduated to mayor. When he took presidential office in 2002, Colombia was in disarray. Uribe drastically changed the Colombian peoples’ economic status building schools, housing, creating a welfare system, and reducing unemployment.Velez truly changed Colombia’s future for the better. His presidency ended in 2010 and he was later appointed vice chairman of the UN for the Gaza flotilla raid.
- 11. The Pan-American Highway This highway stretches over 23 countries from as north as Canada to as south as Argentina. Because it passes through so many countries roads are not always accessible due to rain or simple deterioration. The section called the Darien Gap is located between Panama and Colombia and is impassible to ordinary vehicles. This stretch has yet to be developed due to its negative effects on the rainforest, control of forest diseases, and benefits to drug traffickers. This highway is North America’s direct connection to all Latin American countries and holds great power if developed and maintained.
