When I was a child I remember my teachers always putting him up on a pedestal but one so high up that years later I questioned as I came to read about other military leaders. Now as an adult I came to understand and see Bolivar not as a tyrant but as a man with a hard-headed grip on his core principals and so proud of them that for that reason he is seen as a tyrant. Plus just like Julius Caesar, he was a formidable militant commander but not great in politics. The difference being that Caesar became in love with his own successes that turned him into a tyrant willing to only satisfy his own needs. Bolivar wrestled with compromising his beliefs and principles with those of wanting to grasp power for themselves and so he declared himself dictator as a result.

[@herrero4270]

A very fair comment. The only thing that can usually keep countries together that have just been decolonized, is a dictatorship that manages to maintain cohesion, in the midst of so many ambitions and local caudillismo. Bolivar's problem consisted in the fact that his power depended precisely upon those military constellation of caudillo that did not support his purposes because they put their personal interest above the nation. Bolívar's political genius consisted precisely in creating a confederation of caudillos and members of all social classes to achieve independence, but that was also his weakness.

[@omarivanmayorgaalvarado860]

I am not pretty sure what your assesment of bolívar means about being a dictator or tyrant. On the other hand I think caesar was much better at whatever you can name (above all else politics) and can't be compared with bolívar. For example one of caesar's final reforms was the roman grain dole to ensure it was granted to the poorest romans and reduce it from 300k People to 150k and the People were pretty satisfied considering you cut the free grain supply by half and must've been a great success so far because the roman People were happy and chased his assasins months after this event and even some of his enemies were happy to see that caesar pulled a conservative reform instead of a populist reform ( this is in some Letters of cicero writting to other senators) i could name many more examples but you could hardly find a politician in history Who cut a free something and not only the People were satisfied but also your enemies that is quite a deed

[@herrero4270]

@@omarivanmayorgaalvarado860 I didn't say Bolivar was a dictator or tyrant. And I was not comparing Boliver with anybody else. I find useless that kind of comparisons, since the context and circumstances of every figure are different. nobody does whatever they can and want, since they are determined by the possibilities provided by their historical circumstances. Masybe Cesar was a better politician, so what?

Very ineresting. I am just about to watch the last episode of "Bolivar" produced in 2019. In comparison to that production, this does clear up some of what I missed in the series. The series is dubbed in English, and trying to watch the video with the Spanish audio and reading the text, you do miss some of the details. It appears to me the man was a product of his time, and in the end, I would have to say I see him more of the "saint" than a villian. Washington, Jefferson, and Jackson are now being condemned by many of my coutrymen here in the U.S., as these people are being subjected to comparison by contemporary standards. Having read many books on Napoleon, I also no longer see him as the monster dipicted in teachings by teachers in my youth.

Fair resumee of what the faight of Bolivar was like two centuries ago. But he was not only a great commander in chef of the Colombian liberation army, but also an exceptional statesman, the leading creator of the six northeast southamerican states, who was also the Founding Father of a world-class national identity the Colombia's one, as was then recognized by the State Secretary, John Quincy Adams when the US recognised the new emerging nation-state in 1823, in an epoch of blatant upsurging of colonialism worldwide, a faight that compelled him to ride on horseback a territory as vast as that rided by Tamerlan in the Mongolian steppes, and which of couse, was defied by all kinds of setbacks and traissons. Therefore he is considered by many Historians and geopolitical specialists, as did the Frech Hispanist Gilette Saurat in the presentation press note by Paris-Mach of her monumental biography on Bolivar in 1979, among the greatest leaders that has marked Humanity as a whole, with Caesar, Alexander the Great, Tamerlan, Napoleon and Washington, i.e., among those greatest leaders who by their very actions have marked and improved humankind conditions forever. Thanks for remembering him with fairness and clarity now that we are celebrating the Bicentennial of his exceptional accomplishments. This year will be, by december 24th, that of the final liberation of Peru in Ayacucho, and it remains still his final consacration as stateman with the creation of Bolivia next year and his convocation to the Panama's Anphitionic Congress for the following 2026.

gracias nunca he oído hablar de el Francisco de Miranda was a Venezuelan military leader and revolutionary who fought in the American Revolutionary War, the French Revolution, and the Spanish American wars of independence.1 He was born on March 28, 1750, in Caracas, Venezuela, and died on July 14, 1816, in Cadiz, Spain, due to apoplexy.0 He is considered the "Precursor" to Simon Bolvar and other more effective revolutionaries. His own plan for the liberation of Spain's American colonies with the help of the European powers failed, but he remains known as "the forerunner" of Bolvar and other more effective revolutionaries.2 He was a dashing, romantic figure, a friend of Americans such as James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, and was the lover of Catherine the Great of Russia.

[@herrero4270]

@@carolinaherreradeangulo6087 And I think Bolívar would be almost the same without Miranda. All Miranda's intents of Venezuela's independece were a failure. And it was Bolívar who promoted the Miranda's arrival in Venezuela, and not otherwise, as commander in chief of the independentist army. Miranda was more an ideological precursor, but the idea of independence from Spain was a common domain in all Spanish America, and not only from Miranda, who hadn´t any influence on the independentist ideas in Mexico and Central America.

I am Argentinian, and I suggest doing a video about our Libertador General Jose de San Martin, he was the true liberator of South America. A genuine military genius, he took part in the Bailen battle against Napoleon and getting back to Argentina he founded the Regiment of Horseback Grenadiers, Regimiento de Granaderos a Caballo, in Spanish. With his regiment he won to the Spaniards the battle of San Lorenzo. Then he created an Army that cross the Andes Mountains to liberate Chile, there in Chile he won the battle of Maipu and later the last and most important battle: Chacabuco, that battle meant freedom for Chile, then he went by sea to Peru to free them from Spanish rule. He was a military genius, and NEVER sought personal glory, he rejected all public offices, having been name President of Peru, and then back to Argentina he was offered the command of all forces, he rejected EVERYTHING, he NEVER sought glory, only freedom for South America.

The most approximate calculations show the chilling figure of TWO BILLION EUROS, the value of the gold and silver reserves that were in the royal estates of Spain in Latin America, which England seized thanks to Simón Bolívar and San Martín. The wealth of the English empire was not gained through trade with the Indians but from the plundering of the Spanish empire after the passage of Charles IV and his son Ferdinand VII. On August 3, 1821, San Martín assumed command and power of Peru with the title of 'Protector'. He renounced the protectorate of Peru on September 20, 1822. His government lasted, therefore, one year, one month and seventeen days. What were the most significant acts of your government? 1. Lord Cochrane (English), the head of the fleet, seized all the funds of the Peruvian government (Treasure of the Royal Treasury), and private funds from Lima, which San Martín had kept in the Peruvian ships Jerezana, La Perla and La Luisa 'to prevent them from falling into the power of the royalist forces in case they took the city of Lima'. Without considering justifications, explanations or excesses, we have the following: such an immense amount of funds placed in three ships were easy prey for Lord Cochrane, who immediately left for London. The same thing happened in Buenos Aires in 1806, where Beresford embarked the Treasure of the Royal Treasury (40 tons of coined gold) on the ship Narcissus bound for London. It is the same thing that happened in Potosí, where Pueyrredón assaults and destroys the Mint (August 1811), sending to Buenos Aires a million pieces of silver that the government delivers through credit instruments to British merchants, who send them to London. . In 1822 the British seized twelve tons of gold coined in Sant Fé de Bogotá (now Colombia). At the same time, the same thing is happening in Guatemala (United Central America) and Mexico. - Dr. Julio C. González, The Hispanic American Involution Origin: CLAMOR: San Martín, England and Peruvian gold

And my father's ancestors not also helped financing the discovery of the new world, also helped financing Bolivar to fight against the Spaniards, really fascinating story about my ancestry

Interesting

[@javierchavarria1386]

Ugh, huge error in your video title, we are not “latin” Americans, we are Americans. Somos Americanos. Our culture is not just a language, culture is more than just a language derived from latin. América 🌎

[@LuDa-lf1xd]

Lo más correcto sería 'Hispano América'. Latino americano se refiere a países que hablan lenguas romance, y eso incluye a Brasil y Haití.

[@javierchavarria1386]

@@LuDa-lf1xd y porque no tambien la provincia de quebec? Si ellos hablan frances, porque no son “latinos” , no porque latino es sinonimo con pobres, sub desarrollados, eso es ser latino. Tienes razon, hispano america para diferenciar pero yo creo que solamente nos refiramos a nosotros como Americanos

[@LuDa-lf1xd]

Ya somos Americanos. America es el continente. Si queremos hablar de los Americanos que hablan español; pues eso es hispano américa, y si queremos incluir a Brasil, es ibero américa. Somos tercermundistas, es un hecho. Ahora en Estados Unidos, dónde te da superioridad moral el pertenecer a un grupo minoritario, ser 'latino' es 'cool', está de moda y ya no es visto tanto de manera peyorativa serlo.

[@LuDa-lf1xd]

Recuerda que Puerto Rico le pertenece a Estados Unidos, y que es segundo país con más hispanohablantes es : Estados Unidos.

Before Bolívar many parts South America were on the same level as Europe. Fast forward 200 Years poverty and violence.

[@generalbenjaminarrola340]

Fake News

[@xiuhcoatl4830]

No it wasn't

[@malvarez8484]

@ aaa ya it was, the Spanish colonies weren’t even colonies they were provinces and ran on the same political system and had the same institutions as Spain proper. with trade networks and commerce the whole length of the empire before the Napoleonic wars. Spain at the turn of the 19th century was still the largest empire in the world. Although leadership in Spain and in the American provinces was corrupt mismanaged and inefficient, nepotism was a huge problem and lead to a lot of incompetence .

[@franciscoortega7938]

how sad that the only type of government that they could respect was tyranny. succession has always been an issue in our countries.

[@flaviot5226]

Bolívar condujo a Sur América a un legado duradero de conflicto, desigualdad y dictadura, la revolución en Sur América condeno el Continente al subdesarrollo. expresidentes, y la izquierda han glorificado, exaltado, e idealizado a Bolivar, su legado de autoritarismo, centralizacion politica, lamentablemente, Sociedades que comienzan en extrema desigualdad, desarrollan instituciones con alto grado de inestabilidad política, refuerza más desigualdad provocando un conflicto constante; el resultado ha sido 200 años de continua lucha de injusticia, política, social y económica, guerra civil, y naturalmente la proliferación guerrillera

[@kevinnn2083]

Lo que vino después de Bolívar no es culpa de Bolívar, atribuir a un solo hombre toda la miseria desigualdad y dictadura que vino después es absurdo, empezando que fueron los mismos enemigos de Bolívar quienes ganaron al final, siguiendo por los caudillos hambrientos de poder y tierra poco despues, ellos si son los responsables de todo lo malo, si Bolívar lo consideran malo, entonces consideren demonios a los sucesores

[@kevinnn2083]

También La imagen que la izquierda tiene sobre Bolívar es inexistente,no existió esa versión que cuentan, todo es para conseguir personas que los sigan, usarán símbolos patrios para promover el nacionalismo, y la figura de Bolívar no se queda atrás

Simón Bolívar 'El balcanizador'

[@juanguzman1824]

His family comes from what is today the Dominican Republic.

[@kevinnn2083]

No, only one man of his family was born in Santo Domingo, the rest were all born and raised in Venezuela

[@rainydaywoman5758]

He's my cousin

[@cpamacjd]

He reminds me a lot of bill clinton, what a leader

[@mariogutierrezc]

Misinformation. During the Batalla de Junin , Simon Bolivar ordered his army leaving the battlefield, but a group of peruvian cabalry called as Husares del Peru disobeyed the ordered and continue fighting. This group of heroice men won the battle, not Bolivar. The guy who really won this battle is Jose Andres Razuri, but fame and renown was given to Bolivar.

[@oscarberolla9910]

Claro, pero es una biografia a grandes razgos, no desmenuzan demasiado.
