The portuguese Prince declared independence from his own father
In some way, all of us do the same
Well his father became a puppet of the Portuguese court after he signed the Constitution. In fact the Brazilians tried to get Pedro I to declare independence since King João returned to Portugal, and the only reason why Pedro l did not declare war, was because he didn't wanted to betray his father. He only get into the independence vibe after his son died following the tensions between Portugueses and Brazilians in Rio de Janeiro, who force the Royal family to leave the city and made the boy already weak health became worse. Pedro was so furious that he write to his father "It was your soldiers who killed my son."

Since the 1755 Lisboa Earthquake, the idea of changing the capital of Portugal to Brazil was growing among the government as by that time, Gold had already been found in Brazil and it had become the most profitable land owned by Portugal.
@@ericksousa911 Actually the capital only became in Rio because the monarchs had to flee from Mainland Portugal due to the Peninsula Wars and the French Invasions of 1808, 1809 and 1811. And the golden years of Brazil were actually before the earthquake of 1755, in the times of D. João V, the Louis XIV of Portugal.
Brazil had four annexed territories, in its edges, that became a state in the 80s/90s… Rondônia, Amapá, Roraima, and Acre. No one talks about it but would be interesting to cover it.
It also lost some unfortunately, including cisplatina and French Guiana

Actually, the issue was more political than anything else: Paraguay supported the Uruguayan White Party and Brazil supported the Uruguayan Crimson Party. The Crimson Party staged a coup against the White Party and took control of Uruguay, then the Paraguayan Government wanted to help the White Party, but had to cross Argentina to get to Montevideo. They asked the government of Argentina for permission, but they refused to avoid getting into trouble with Brazil, which was a powerful empire back then. Anyway the Paraguayan army crossed the Argentinian border causing the war.

@@kamranmisri2366 Well, Mexicans are natives lmao.
As an Australian, it sounds weird because we're taught the seven continent model with North America and South America as separate continents, and that "America" is a shortened version of the United States of America. However, it doesn't phase me too much because I understand that other people refer to things differently and that's perfectly fine. With that being said, it does sound weird having an American (US citizen), someone who probably would've been taught the same thing as I, referring to the Americas as a single "America".
Actually, the Americas are divided into "South", "North" and sometimes "Central" for geopolitical reasons (mainly because the North do not want to mix with the "underdeveloped" and "not white" South). But, it is a unique continent if you consider what a continent is.

All that room, and it still wasn't enough. can you imagine the vast areas involved and the time it takes to even figure out where your boarder is, where the enemy is and how to get your army into position to meet the enemy. It amazes me that anyone knew what was going on prior to the invention of telegrams and powered transport.
Both of those started soon (less than a generation) after the beginning of this video, though the point is still applicable of course since they were implemented in Europe first.
Great video. Not easy to explain such borders movements in that continent. Thanks for your videos, it's the second one i m using for my teaching in écons. Will be great, although takes time, to regularly update the videos by adding to the end, latest.
For those who are interested in knowing more about the subject, the independence of the Spanish-American colonies differs greatly from the independence of the United States, on our side it all began as a consequence of a power vacuum generated by the intervention of Napoleon Bonaparte in Spain. Due to this, neither the Spanish nor the colonists accepted the authority of Joseph Bonaparte as the new king of Spain and began to organize on their own, in the case of Spain the Court of Cadiz was formed as the main opponent of the French occupation, but his authority was not recognized by the Colonies either, this was because the colonies appealed to the "Siete Partidas del Rey Alfonso X" which were the body of laws that had prevailed in Spain since the Middle Ages during the times of The Reconquista, and according to these partidas, the king's power came from the people and without the king the power returned to the people once more, added to this, it was understood that the American colonies were not part of the Spanish state as is normally thought, on the contrary they were literally the personal lands of the kings of Spain since 1492, united to peninsular Spain only by their figure and authority, without the king at the head, the colonies saw themselves with the right to govern themselves until the monarch returned. So at first, the colonies did not want independence, but while the Napoleonic wars continued and tyrannical actions were taken by the colonial authorities in order to maintain control, radical factions and groups of patriots influenced by the ideas of the Enlightenment, Freemasonry and the rejection of the absolutist reforms of the House of Bourbon, began to take activities to convert the colonies in independent democratic republics, this is how the independence of Hispano-America was largely gestured
Absolutely the Spanish Colonies wanted their independence from Spain, even before the whole "power vacuum" that you speak of. The"Criollos", the Spanish descendants in the Americas were the main reason for independence from Spain. The Criollos wanted independence because they were not treated fairly by the Peninsulares, the Spaniards in mainland Spain. The Criollos were considered second class citizens, and were constantly overruled by the Peninuslares in the Americas, which made no sense since it was the Criollos who understood life in the Colonies better. The Criollos had a good point for complete independence, they were the ones who were expanding the Spanish Empire, conquering territory, controlling vast territory, governing the locals, and defending the Spanish Colonies from other European powers, like defeating the British in Rio de la Plata in 1806 and 1807, without the help of mainland Spain. The Peninsulares always tried to impose on the Criollos, like forcing the Criollos to give the Eastern Part of Hispanola to the French because of a Spanish mistake in Europe in the 1790s, the Criollos in Santo Domingo were not consulted, not considered, nor were they happy about it. There was a reason why almost everyone in Latin America, especially those with full Spanish ancestors like Bolivar, San Martin and Jose Marti later on, wanted Spain out of the continent. It was because Spain was unjust and ungrateful to those who expanded and defended her Empire for so long. The Criollos had no reason to be loyal to Peninuslares who was unfair to them. The Criollios did MORE for the Spanish Empire than anyone. It was them and their ancestors who conquered mighty empires like the Aztec, Inca, and Mayan Empires. It was them and their ancestors who crossed, mountains, deserts, jungles, and tundras in unknown territory to expand the Spanish Empire. It was them and their ancestors who defeated other European powers like the British, French, Portuguese and Dutch, keeping the bulk of the Spanish Empire for the Spanish. Then the Peninsulares want to go ahead and treat Criollos like second class citizens, ignoring their rights and opinions and not caring if they consent to treaties or not. Loyalty is a two-way street. It is not the Criollos have to be loyal to Spain, but Spain does not have to be loyal to the Criollos. No, the Criollos were not having any disloyalty, especially not from Peninsulares who never even stepped foot in the New World. The ultimate disloyalty was the Spanish being disloyal to the Criollos with Santo Domingo. In the 1790s, Spain lost a war to the French Republic fought in Europe, but in order not to lose territory in Europe, Spain gave France the Eastern part of Hispaniola, which included Santo Domingo. Do you know how hard the Criollos had worked to keep Santo Domingo a Spanish Colony for centuries. Every other European power was always trying to take Santo Domingo, and the Criollos successfully defended it. So now the Criollos in Santo Domingo were French subjects (until they fought off the foreign invaders without help from Spain, like in Rio de la Plata in 1807). So for Spain to just give France Santo Domingo, without consent or approval from the Criollos in Hispaniola, that sent shockwaves to all Criollo Nation in the New World. From California to Patagonia, from Santiago de Cuba to Santiago de Chile, every Criollo thought if it was their home that Spain would give away next. No, the Criollos were not having it. Mexico would not be British, Rio de la Plata would not be French, Nueva Granada would not be Dutch, if Spain wished to give it away. Because Spain no longer controlled the destiny of the Criollo lands.They took their chances to be on their own, because Spain did NOT have their best interest, independence was the correct result.

It's important to notice Pedro of Brasil entered in conflict with the burgeoise, lower mobility and clergy of Portugal, not with his father, the King. Pedro became Emperor of Brazil but remained heir to the Portuguese throne. In fact a few years later, he returned to Portugal, deposed his usurper brother Miguel, having the support of a large part of Portuguese population and army (despite Brazilian independence), and put his eldest daughter, born in Brazil, in the Portuguese throne, while his son became Emperor of Brazil, ruling until 1889, and considered the greatest Brazilian of all time

empress Leopoldina was the daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor.

And she was largely responsible for fostering German colonization in southern Brazil, starting in 1824
True decolonization is, when all european culture dominated states disappear and the Aztec, Mayan, Inca and so on Empires are reborn, including tribal lands (if the tribes still exist at all). People of european origin might live then in reservations.

@@johnnyappleseed4930 Actually this is my fault, I meant to respond to someone else, not here, lol. I was talking about Napoleon and the false history that most people use to make him appear great, instead of the incompetent, delusional warmongering military dictator who ended in total defeat that he was. Never mind, I have no further comment here.
The more dramatic tone of this voiceover, compared to the previous video’s tone (friendlier), is more fitting of the channel’s identity.
IMO, this dramatic tone makes it sound like one of those clickbait top 10 channels who have no idea what they're talking about
@@Fred_the_1996 Drama is rather misplaced in a Top 10 Doritos Flavors of All Time video, but when used in describing historical events that shaped civilizations.... some dramatic effect seems apt.
@@dphone7521 well, I'd rather have a calm tone but everyone has their opinion

I am glad they made this I wanted to know more about the independence of the Spanish colonies
There weren't spanish colonies. There were viceroyalties. Nowadays they were part of a federation. No colonies

The Pacific War (Bolivia & Peru vs Chile) was not over minerals, but guano (bird poop). Back then guano was a great fertilizer and was wanted by many countries.
Not
It was because of saltpeter, not guano
La gran guerra del sorete 😱😱
Too minerals
Great summary. I like to add that Argentina was ruled by a militar dictatorship during the war with the UK, it's not like people voted to go to war.
People wanted it but not losing it
Venezuelan independence was declarated on 1810 and stablished on 1811, then they agreed to be part of the gran colombia in 1819, but venezuelan and independence indeed was way earlier than the video shows (as it was regained later on 1830 after gran colombia collapse)
We were never colonies, we were Viceroyalties, New Spain, New Granada,Peru, Río de la Plata. Spanish provinces, spanish cabildos. We rebelled against the French occupation, a lot of people fought against independence, even many indigenous nations, that were terrible treated by the new republics.
То чувство, когда вы рассказываете интереснее, чем в моей школе на уроке по географии

Nicely done! My only criticism is the short shrift you gave to the transfer of Louisiana from Spanish to French control. That seems like a pretty big land swap. I would’ve loved to learn more about that topic.
Wonderful Video

I lowkey like the other guys voice more, like this guy is good but the previous one is great, i like the accent
Great video very educational.. can you do decolonisation of Africa next :)
pretty cool. there were many things that would made the video too long if mention it or dont fit into "decolonization in america". also i think is more complicated than just decolonization
