He called it Haiti, mountainous land, in the language of the native Arawak inhabitants. Became first emperor of Haiti; later assassinated in a revolt. 1820: Haiti became an independent republic
9 SPANISH COLONIES REVOLUTIONS AGAINST SPANISH RULE
10 LATIN AMERICAN SOCIAL CLASSES Peninsulares - men born in Spain held highest offices Creoles - Spaniards born in Latin America officers in army, but not in government often resented power of the peninsulares Mestizos - mixed European and Indian Mulattos - mixed European and African Indians
11 EUROPEAN BACKGROUND: NAPOLEON Napoleon invaded Spain in Removed Spain s King Ferdinand VII and made Joseph (Nap s brother) king of Spain. Creoles used it as a reason for revolution rebellion across Latin America. 1814, Napoleon defeated and Ferdinand returned to power, but creoles cont d their movement.
12 SIMON BOLIVAR Wealthy Venezuelan creole. The Liberator
13 VENEZUELAN INDEPENDENCE, 1821 Venezuela declared independence, Bolivar s armies unsuccessful at first. 1819: Bolivar marched armies over Andes into today s Colombia, defeated Spanish army. 1821: Venezuelan independence. Marched north to Ecuador to meet Jose de San Martin.
14 JOSE DE SAN MARTIN Simple, modest man. Born in Argentina, spent time in Spain as military officer.
15 ARGENTINEAN INDEPENDENCE Argentina declared independence in San Martin led army across Andes to Chile, joined by Bernardo O Higgins, and freed Chile. Ecuador, 1822: San Martin met with Bolivar to decide how to remove remaining Spanish forces in Lima, Peru.
16 San Martin Bolivar
17 GRAN COLOMBIA, Bolivar s vision of a united South America. Present-day Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela and Panama. Short-lived due to dissension amongst various factions. Bolivar resigned in In 1830, Bolivar s Gran Colombia divided into Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. Panama later split from Colombia with US assistance, 1903.
18 MEXICO Indians and mestizos, not creoles, played the key role in independence movements. Creoles sided with Spain to avoid violence of lower-class rebellions (until 1820).
19 MIGUEL HIDALGO A village priest, believed in Enlightenment ideals. 1810, called for revolution. Hidalgo s Indian and mestizo followers marched to Mexico City. Spanish army and creoles acted against Hidalgo and defeated him in 1811.
20 JOSE MARIA MORELOS Took leadership after Hidalgo s defeat. Defeated by creoles.
21 MEXICAN INDEPENDENCE, revolution in Spain put a liberal government in power. Mexican creoles feared loss of influence, so they united against Spain. Agustin Iturbide declared himself emperor, but was overthrown. 1824: Establishment of the Mexican Republic. Compromise between conservatives and liberals Presidential system, bicameral legislature
22 MONROE DOCTRINE, 1823 US watched with interest as new independent countries were forming in Latin America Concern arose when Britain and France began to try to influence struggling democracies James Monroe, 5th President, issued doctrine to protect Latin America No new colonies allowed in Western Hemisphere Attempts to recolonized would be seen as an act of war USA would step in to aid Latin American countries Could the USA interferr????
23 ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA A caudillo, strong military leader. Fought for independence from Spain in 1821 and again in 1829 when Spain tried to reconquer Mexico. Between 1833 and 1855, president four times switched sides to keep himself in power Was Emperor for a short time until Texas defeated Mexico in its War of Independence, but never really had control of his empire Remember the Alamo
24
25 BENITO JUAREZ Poor, orphaned Zapotec Indian; law degree and local governor. La Reforma: reform movement redistribution of land, separation of church and state, education Set up a liberal government, but plagued by conservative rebels.
26 FRENCH RULE Conservative rebels plotted with France to reconquer Mexico. Napoleon III sent armies to Mexico. Cinco de Mayo, 1862: Zaragoza won the Battle of Puebla against the French, but the French won the war. Napoleon III appointed a relative, Austrian archduke Maximilian, as emperor of Mexico. Juarez resisted, US sent troops to Mexico - French gave up in Juarez continued reforms. Can you say Monroe Doctrine????
27 PORTUGUESE RULE Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494 divided the Atlantic between Spain and Portugal. Portugal was mostly focused on routes to Asia in the 15th and 16th centuries.
28 BRAZILIAN INDEPENDENCE In 1807, Napoleon marched on Iberian peninsula, forcing Portuguese royal family of King John VI to escape to Brazil, Portugal s largest colony. From 1807 to 1815, Brazil was center of Portuguese empire.
29 BRAZILIAN INDEPENDENCE With defeat of Napoleon in 1815, Portugal wanted Brazil to become a colony again. By 1822, creoles demanding independence signed a petition asking Portugal s prince, Dom Pedro, to rule Brazil. On Sept 7, 1822, Dom Pedro agreed, and declared Brazil s independence Constitutional monarchy 1889, Brazilians overthrew Pedro s successor and declared their country a republic.
30 UNITED PROVINCES OF CENTRAL AMERICA Several other Central American states declared their independence from both Spain and Mexico to create the United Provinces of Central America.
31 PERIOD OF CONSOLIDATION, Breakdown of original nations and groups: Gran Colombia an original union between Bolivia and Peru United Provinces of Central America Instability of internal politics Bolivia experienced 60 revolts and coups. Venezuela experienced 52 revolts and coups Liberals - free trade, representative government, federal government system Conservatives - protect church and upper classes controlled most regimes between 1830 and Independence movements and new governments run by Creoles Spanish administrators had excluded Creoles from political leadership, so few leaders could actually run a government.
32 RESULTS OF LATIN AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE MOVEMENTS Political/Social: Continued battles between liberals, conservatives and the military over how to best rule. Tensions between articulate political forces and the separate masses. Economic: Unable to free itself from dependence on Western-controlled economic patterns. Cash crop economies Banana Republics Cultural/intelligent: Distinct cultural entity combination of Western styles and values plus its racial diversity, colonial past, and social structure of a semi-colonial economy.
