Why are there so many latinx states like whats the difference between them they're all just a hodgepodge of different native people african slaves and a catholic spanish speaking mestizo ruling class. I dont mean this as an insult its just suprising that these random administrative divisions developed into countries despite fundamentally all being the same.
>>18475217>mestizo>ruling class.
>>18475217The mestizos are not the ruling class in any of those nations lol, unironically it is jews, each of those nations their richest families are jewish-mixed
>>18475217The elites of each de facto city-state fiefdom didn't want to share power with the elites of the other de facto city-state fiefdoms
>>18475217Retard tries their hand at worldbuilding then calls it Latin America, episode #54,789. I'm starting to think authentic knowledge of the area is impossible unless you do a PhD or come from there.
>>18475217Before the rise of the US enforced peace in the western hemisphere there were hard limits to the size any latinx state could achieve before it inevitably imploded into violence because the leader of one party deflowered the cousin of the largest oligarch or something
>>18475232>>18475246yes they are, even elite latin americans are mutts not to mention spaniards themselves are moor rapebaby mutts

>>18475217It's actually surprising that there are so few of them, if anything.
>>18475217The various latin american nations have their origins on the various subdivisions of Spanish America, which included the four viceroyalties of New Spain, Peru, New Granada and La Plata, that also included the Capitancies such as Chile, Venezuela or Guatemala, and bellow those were various Audiencias and Intendencias such as Charcas or Upper Peru in modern Bolivia, each with their own political elite, military cadres and hacendado aristocracy.
latams are often intimately familiar with masonic history as it pertains to them because of people like Bolivar specifically causing apocalyptic wars in South America after their independence and balkanization with direct British assistance for a very long time with ramifications lasting to this dayThe wars of independence themselves alone, to say nothing of things which happened later, between these new "nations", were so harmful that latam didn't actually develop economically at all for almost the entire 19th century and suffered from major instability which lasts to this day.Basically, the economic protections Spain afforded it's native subjects from foreign encroachment vanished. Foreign imports displaced and stymied native industries, to the profit margins of the British and to the marked detriment of natives.It also induced new states like Mexico notably among others to take on enormous and crippling loans from, again these bankers.Basically this had the effect of turning them into vulnerable markets for the burgeoning and industrial US and British economies to export finished goods and to procure raw materials from. Extractively. Which eventually became United Fruit and the like.This devastation of what was once a unified trade bloc had many downstream effects. One was ensuring continued US economic dominance over the entire continent which again is very relevant for reasons.In fact, new national identities had to be fashioned out of essentially nothing. To facilitate these new "Bolivias" becoming something people could actually identify themselves with, newspapers were employed to spread nationalist propaganda.
>>18475333I’m not the guy you were responding to, but I wanted to weigh in. Mestizos really aren’t the ruling class, though. It may seem that way to most of us outsiders, but a disproportionate amount of the ruling class in Latin America is Castizo and Criollo, as well as what I like to call neo-Criollo or pseudo-Criollo, that being not people who are pure white, but instead pure Japanese (Fujimori in Peru) or pure Levantine (Latin American billionaires like Carlos Slim, also Nayib Bukele and Claudia Sheinbaum), people from non-white immigrant groups that didn’t mix and are perceived as being “above” the mestizo and indigenous population. A quick exercise for you, go look at the Wikipedia page for the governor of each Mexican state, then go look at the portrait of every serving Mexican president. You can do this with Brazil as well. In both cases, you will find SOME people who are not Castizo, Criollo, or what I called neo-Criollo, but a disproportionate amount, if not a majority l, will fall into one of the three categories I mentioned. So, don’t get me wrong, it’s not like Mestizos and Indigenous people are disenfranchised to the extent of like, blacks in Apartheid South Africa, but they are underrepresented in government, business, and media compared to the percentage of the population that they constitute.
>>18475217The viceroyalties we're never allowed to trade with eachother so there was very little existing infrastructure or political frameworks that would allow them to easily organize into a larger bloc. The best attempt was under Bolivar but that didn't last.
