In my time, when I finished the 12 years, 2001, we must studied chilean history if you wanted go in the university, the PAA examen required it, especially if you wanted study humanities or human ciencies or Right. Maybe in the schools this was explained in general, with a little of descriptions, but, if you needed a good exam, you prepared with several books, very popular in this times. Today there are less chilean history, because the goverments needs a citizen without roots.

The chilean falange didn't supported future coups, at least until 1973, because this movement only had the same name to the spanish falange, but they are conservatives involved in social christian ideology and with the time become in a reformist popular movement of left center.

My grandfather saw all these events from his office window. He worked at the Caja de Crédito Prendario (Pledge Credit Fund), right in front of the Caja del Seguro Obrero (Workers' Insurance Fund), where the nacistas entrenched themselves. More than for the political motivations of the uprising, the event is remembered for the mass murder committed by Carabineros, and is called the "Seguro Obrero Massacre." In the end, the "nacistas" were few and irrelevant, and if it weren't for the massacre, surely no one would remember them now. Arturo Alessandri was a tremendously impulsive and violent guy. He once slapped a police officer because he had not cleared a parking space for the presidential car in time. His son, also president Jorge Alessandri, never married or had children, so two rumors circulated; that he was homosexual or that he was impotent because of a kick in the testicles he had received from his father. There are also witnesses who heard Alessandri shout out of control "Kill them all!" I cannot affirm it with the certainty of a historian, but it seems very difficult to me for a simple police general to order the shooting of 60 people and finishing them off with swords 20 meters from the Government House without an order or approval from the president. After the event, the press was censored and there was no investigation. Even the Carabineros Hospital is named after General Arriagada, who ordered the massacre. Chile never declared war on Germany! It only declared war on Japan, almost when the atomic bomb was already falling.

Señor Fernandez; el odio del presidente Arturo Alessandri, , proviene del hecho que los pacos, son un engendro de ibañez, su némesis, ese odio se acrecentó y perpetuó en la familia Alessandri, por el actuar en el congreso de Chile, en su 2ª gobierno , en donde los partidarios de ibañez, le bloquearon leyes y lo peor, lo obligaron a soportar a los pacos de guardia de la Moneda(por eso es que existía la puerta de Morandé 80, entre otras cosas, que el infeliz de lagos en su gobierno , desconoció). Lo otro, respecto al presidente Alessandri Rodriguez, hasta donde yo se, no era homosexual o pédofilo; sólo era un hombre que lo pasó pésimo en su juventud con las mujeres que amó y eso a que era el hijo del "León de Tarapacá", le "cagó" sus afectos. En este último punto se debe recordar la "intima" y pública, amistad que Jorge Alessandri, mantuvo con una mujer casada , posteriormente viuda hasta su muerte(que habría sido el amor de su vida). Respecto al odio a los pacos esto se vió y conoció públicamente en su gobierno, el problema es que es de "mal gusto" recordarlo por la prensa en el 2024.

The president wasn’t on a mood so he just said something like “Just kill them all (plus some cursing)” but not literally, he just meant “do your work and leave me alone”. Then the military proceded to kill them all. I don’t know if that’s true but it’s still interesting if true

The chilean nazi party had 3 diputados (representants in the Parliament) and the 3,6 % of the votes of the all in his best moment 1938. After the failed putsch, for the presidential elections, they supported the candidate of the popular front in revange of the liberal goverment of Alessandri, and his candidate Gustavo Ross. In the other side, Aguirre Cerda, a radical (center left) won with the votes of radicals, socialist, comunist (popular front) and "nacistas", the ancient enemies. The nacistas were chilean nationalists and they broke with some hitlerian nacistas. After the war some ex nacistas were importants, like Guarello Fitz Henry, a lawyer that worked in the declaration of the 200 sea miles (Declaration of Santiago), with Perú and Ecuador. The politics in Chile in the age post 1938 until 1973 was nationalist, in the right and left side, in the sense of to protect the national resorces and the little national industry, with huge taxes for the international trade.

Hi, another Chilean comment. This episode of our history is little known. I myself learned about it at the University, when a right-wing teacher told us about it. Later, in the 1990s there was a TV report about the Matanza, done by Informe Especial. More recently (2017) a book by Chilean journalist Emiliano Valenzuela was published, titled "La Generación Fusilada". I think this video is very accurate, and I'm suscribing to your channel. 😊😊

BR Tragic, but very interesting story. In Brazil we had the Brazilian integralist action (AIB), equally fascist-inspired, but with some black members in its ranks (the history is complex as always). After the coup that occurred, if I'm not mistaken also in 1938, by Getúlio Vargas, the integralists and their leader Plínio Salgado hoped to have some participation in the Government. Instead his party was also dissolved, like the communist party :/ So they tried to carry out a treacherous coup, trying to invade the Palácio do Catete (government headquarters), but they had to face the Palace guards, the police 🚨, and God almighty 🙌. The Coup failed, some members were executed, Plínio fled the country to Portugal, returning after redemocratization (in 1946 I think), and during the military dictatorship of 64 he was one of the deputies and supporters of the dictatorship.

One very telling aspect of this event was the lack of support in any form from Germany and the NSDAP. It should never be overlooked that Hitler was extremely suspicious of overseas versions of the NSDAP. In general Nazi Germany was reluctant to say the least when it came to supporting overseas versions of National Socialism. Also, as you poInt out, Chile did not want anything that could possibly encourage a coalition of others, notably Argentina, Bolivia & Peru. All of whom they had territorial issues with.

Also, Von Maares dissociated himself from the NSDAP because he rejected any kind of racialist thought in his own corpus. In his vision, the Nazi racial thinking made absolute no sense in the reality of Chile and Hispanic America. That's why nobody here in Chile calls them 'Nazis' but 'nacistas'. In practice they were both different kinds of movements, the only thing in common is that both are fascist movements. South American fascist movements before the cold war are a very interesting topic. They're different beasts compared with their European counterparts.

British and Russians bankrupted Iran and never paid a single penny for all they used, damaged or stole.

Nacis and MNS its a bit more complicated than that. Von Marees was known to be a megalomaniac (he was very enfatic to tell everyone that they where not close to germany. actually he was more of a fan of Mussolini)...hence why students from the universidad the chile, law school, started their own parallel group and planned the "toma del seguro obrero". When they arrested the young protesters von marees rattled them in the underground and when into hiding. Alessandri gave the order to murder them even with the carabineros having the coup totally controlled. Alessandri was a known Facist. Pedro aguirre cerda and others like Allende had their ties with the Nacis. Its been well documented. MNS tho...was a nazi group that had quite a following in the mid 90ties.

Now I need to check what my grandfather was doing in 1938. ... He was nine. His father was AWOL and drinking in Punta Arenas. Guess we are safe. It is interesting to know, though, the role that earlier immigrants had in this. Had this come out successfully it would have triggered a north-south civil war, and perhaps a later struggle between Ibañez and von Mareés. The 30s were already crazy enough in Chile. The country was struck quite strongly by WW1 and the depression, with saltpetter, the spoiles of the War of the Pacific, becoming effectively worthless. Up to that point, the proletarian class had been growing as more and more people immigrated to northern cities, leading to tensions and even massacres, sich as the one in 1907 in Iquique. We then had a "socialist republic" that lasted a couple of months in 1932 and before that Ibañez had staged a coup and implanted corporativism in the country, plus an uprising right after Ibañez left power. By the time Alessandri returned to power in late 1932 he seems to have made every bit of effort to restore some stability. I can only imagine he must have felt justified to use ruthless force when the nacistas attempted to interrupt the unstable stability. In the aftermath of Ibañez's withdraw from the presidential ballot he called his suporters to vote for Aguirre Cerda, who won by a margin below 1%. Cerda ushered in a decade of Radical rule in Chile, in which the country faced WW2 and the opening years of the Cold War, and arguably set the stage for the political polarization leading to Allende's victory in 1970 and Pinochet's coup in 1973. Hope you enjoyed your visit to Chile.

The bar and restaurant downstairs, adjacent to the lobby were 5-star venues, even with live music in the prime hours. I experienced two earthquakes in that hotel. The staff had to clean up the lobby floor underneath the grand mosaic artwork above the check-in desk after one of the quakes.

I was born in Chile and my grandfather was a Carabinero. He was a sergeant at the time of the Seguro Obrero massacre, he was posted at the main Comisaría in the northern city of Coquimbo. In times of emergency, he became the secretary of the Jefe de Plaza, or City Commandant, so he was privy to all communications between the political, military and police commands. When the uprising happened, all police were placed on maximum alert and all armed forces were recalled to barracks. I was reading about this when I was a kid and, when I asked him about it, he said that many thought the execution of the young nazis was an overreaction, but the police were not in a position to disobey orders and, besides, the order came from the highest government authorities. The President, it was said, was watching the proceedings from La Moneda palace and he was outraged that these young men would dare try to depose him and wanted a deterrent to future coups d'état. There were some incredible survival stories though, of men with multiple bullet and bayonet wounds not only surviving, but making a full recovery. Somebody must've put them up to it, because I doubt they would've tried (unless they were incredibly stupid) without an absolute certainty that the armed forces were going to join in the coup.

Is intersting that the nationalist and the comunist and the left in general sometimes had worked together against the liberal economy and conservatives politics. In 1938 Molotov Von Ribbentrop pact and in the presidential election of 1938 in Chile. Today the southamerican left work with the idea of nation, but the different way. Today defends the idea that exist several nations and nationalisms inner a country (plurinational state), and fight against the unique nationalism in each country that defend the right (one Nation, one State). With this idea they has tried broke the traditional concepts of Republic, the liberal heritage and the equality under the law, that in these countries exist since the independence or come of the XIX century.

The chilean fascists has always been quite particular, but the event of the mass killing of the nacistas, are quite interesting mostly over their consequences: - 1: It separated almost forever the chilean right wing with the more corporativists/fascists nacistas, and the only event that will bring them together again, was the fear and hate to what they called "communism" of Allende, staging, preparing and actively supporting Pinochet's dictatorship, but the deep division among them persists until today,. - 2: All the nacistas voters, both with sympathy for "don TInto" (Pedro Aguirre Cerda), but mostly with hate against the liberal right wing -which killed all those people without hesitation- that voted for "Don TInto", giving almost exactly the votes for his wictory over the right wing in the fiollowing presidential elections,, opening the way for one of the most regarded and best government we ever had,. Their motto was "to govern is to educate" and makes a significant progress for both the poorest people and also majority of chileans.

Von Marees was a very interesting guy When this party was born, it was made up of two ideologies A nationalist (that of Von Marees) and the national socialist Nazi (Carlos Keller) The Nazi party in Chile was curiously a good party, since Von Marees was like Enver Hoxha and communism; He liked it, but with many limitations (one of those was his admiration for Hitler; Von Marees did not share it) Thanks to Von Marees and the Nazis, institutions like CORFO existed. What's more, Salvador Allende's Copper nationalization project was Von Marees' project that lay dormant in the Senate for decades (and then Allende promoted it) As a Chilean you may not share Von Marees' ideas (I do not share them personally), but I do not deny his legacy at the legislative level either.

Maybe they simply didn’t see the need to get into a war that didn’t concern them. And only joined at the last hour as a symbolic gesture. The US has done nothing but bring bloodshed to foreign shores ever since it dropped its non interventionist foreign policy, which was the wisdom of the Founding Fathers. This right side of history nonsense, is the smug ill thought ramblings of those who typically don’t actually know a thing about history.

Chilean here! Great video! Came to refresh my knowledge of this event after seeing it in my feed. It's interesting to see the influence of German military on our country, to the point it could be said that this was just part of the Nazis operation here. Years later there were officers and their decendants through-out the whole power (Economic, Politic and Military), where Dictator, General Pinochet, and his council received instructions from them on intelligence, torture and propaganda, as well as recent Parlament represants (Republican Party, UDI and RN) like José Antonio Kast (son of Michael Kast, Nazi soldier) who has run for presidency last two elections. Keep up the good stuff! I'll check your video on Argentina next!

Chile has never had a "huge" German population. The number of German immigrants and their descendants has been and still is sizable in some areas of southern Chile, particularly in the Los Ríos and Los Lagos regions. However, even in those regions German immigrants and their descendants have probably never been more than 30% of the population at their peak, at the turn of the 20th century. Overall in Chile, people of German descent are perhaps about 5% of the population.

The nacistas where a long term political current in chilean politics. After the matanza del seguro obrero Ibañez and his party, including former nacistas, experiment a turn to the left that try to establish relations with the socialist and comunist party. The movement was decreasing in force the following years but lots of small groups continue working the following years. Some of them form the Partido Laborista that support Ibañez campaign for the presidency in 1952. Other continue in small fractions like Partido Nacional Sindicalista (and the papper Bandera Negra) o Movimiento Nacional (with the papper cruz gramada). This last grup was active till the 60's The relation between the chilean nationalist movement in general and the left what full of violence and blood during the first years. Street clashes between nacistas and the other milicias (mainly left ones) was a daily thing of the period 32-37. However, after the seguro obrero incident the nationalism undestood that the movement they where looking for was already organizing around the left. They main current of the nationalism follow ibañez in his attemp to use a privilege political position in the space of the "anti imperialist" and "national" left in times of the popular front and beyond. This is a really good video. Full of good facts and using the best references. Well done!

Hello, your videos are good, I understand it, but you have made the same mistake twice, I think that in your previous videos I had told you about it, but in this video you say it again...Chile did not declare war on Germany In February 1945, where did you get that information? Chile declared war on Japan in April 1945, but not on Germany nor on Italy or any other Axis country (Finland, Hungary, Romania, etc.) """In April 1945, the National Congress authorized President Juan Antonio Ríos to declare war on the Axis, which became official on April 13, specifically against Japan. However, given the imminent defeat of the Japanese country , no military measures were taken to participate in the war."" My great-aunt, born in 1911, was a member of the TNA or assault troops, until the day she died in 2005, all those who did not love Pinochet were evil-born communists for her. Her brother (my grandfather) and her father (my great-grandfather) were soldiers, but both Masons, so in the house there was a big fight between them, since my great-aunt treated them as traitors for not being Nazis. like her.

Este rincón del planeta, para lo único que serviría sería para esconderse, pero, salvo algunos, muy poco, lo usaron, el resto prefirió a la Argentina. Los alemanes que llegaron a Chile, con propósitos militares, fue antes de la aparición de la aparición del nazismo, por lo que la influencia lo era nazista, era prusiano...igual que, por coincidencia, el ejército alemán. ¿Nazismo en Chile?...lo dudo....aquí existe el clásismo, no el racismo
