Latin American Wars

Like in most other(a) histories of excites, colonialism and control of the natural resources be the chief(prenominal) reasons why Latin- American wars happened. Aside from colonialism, the fight down for physical power over the strategic River Plate (a large utuary betwixt genus Argentina and Uruguay, Rio de Plata in Spanish) regions is also one of the master(prenominal) reasons. The ambitious sinkership of Franciso Solano of Paraguay also lead to the Latin American wars. For this, Paraguay is always lead off of the history when we ar talk to the highest degree Latin American wars. Two historical events argon best quoted when we are talking about Latin American War. These are the events that lead to the conflict in Latin American countries in mis- late 1800s.War of the three Alliance or Paraguayan Wars ( 1864- 1870) agree to most history books and to Wikipedia, this started when Argentina announced its independence of Spain in 1810. Paraguay refused to be nether Spain and declared its own independence. El Supremo, Gaspar Rodriguez Francia started a political dynasty in the country of Paraguay. later his death, his kins (nephew and son to be specific)Carlos Antonio Lopez and Francisco Solano Lopez succeeded his regime, and followed his implementation of totalism over Paraguay. Carlos Antonios son, Francisco Solano, built an imperium and the led the country into a war against an alliance of Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay.This war ended with the wipeout of Paraguay. Diseases and deaths occurred and manipulated almost the entire population of the tell country. The following statistics presents the number of casualty in these Latin American countries (http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_of_the_Triple_Alliance ). Brazil had 28, 000-30,000 volume killed in exertion, 30, 000 died due to other causes, others are even missing. In Argentina, 18, 000 killed in action and 12, 000 died of other causes, mainly of diseases and others are missing. In Paraguay , 120,000-160,000 got killed and died. But the conflict is stopped with his death. The revival was started through the initiative of around Brazilian armies who stayed in the country afterwards the war. It took Paraguay long years to recover from chaos and demographic imbalance War of the PacificThe Salpeter war, which is almost other term for War of the Pacific, as referred to its accepted cause started when Chile had a fight against the joint force of Bolivia and Peru. Accroding to the Wikipedia, the war between and among these countries arose when they had an argument over the control of the differentiate of Atacama Desert that lies between the 23rd and twenty-sixth parallels on the Pacific coast. The territory has worth(predicate) mineral resources which were exploited by some companies in Chile and British interests.The Bolivian government took advantage of this situation and inflexible to add and increase taxes to these companies and interests and this led to misund erstand and commercial dispute. This is the reason why is it called Salpeter War. Salpeter is one thousand nitrate, a chemical compound, a by nature occurring mineral source of nitrogen and a good source of black catalyst powder. It may sound funny except we always perceive that in a war, winners are determined by who are right, but who are left. However, as we analyze it as a whole, in any war histories, both parties always have the appearance _or_ semblance defeated with the lost they had after the war.
