B Day Period 9-10: Latin American Revolutions

Hey Period 9-10! Today we began to talk about how the success of the American and French Revolutions spread to colonies in Latin America. For homework, you are going to read about several revolutions against Spanish rule in South America. Please read pp. 682-686 in your textbook (starting with the section entitled "Creoles Lead Independence") Please take brief notes on the 4 main countries that you learn about (Argentina, Venezuela, Mexico, and Brazil). Please focus on why the revolution started, who were the major leaders, and what was the impact of the revolutions.

Please email me if you have any questions. Remember that your test is going to be giiven on next Thursday (February 17). Have a great weekend!
