The Wrong Hero - San Martin

[@samirpetrocelli6583]

As an argentinian, i have to say this is very accurate, objective, and also well presented . Congrats!

[@asdrubalanibal6853]

San Martin was not ‘dispatched’ to the Uruguayan border, neither ‘to take care’ of the Royalist stronghold. The ‘royalist stronghold’ was the city of Montevideo, in what is now Uruguay, which was under land siege by the independentist forces of General Artigas. The Royalists forces were sending raiding parties seizing supples from population centers along the Paraná River, deep into enemy territory. San Martin was sent to fight against, and to stop, these royalists raiding parties. The Battle of San Lorenzo happened over 200 miles away from the Uruguayan border, almost 400 miles from Montevideo, the Spanish royalists troops failed in the attempted raid, and retreated by the river they came from. So yes it was the first argentine military victory in Argentine soil.

I appreciate your attention to this under-treated subject. (You could work on your pronunciation of certain words such as Bolívar--pretty important.) Thank you for your efforts.

Quizás te faltó leer una parte de la historia. You should read more about San Martin. Saludos desde Argentina.

[@inunionandfreedom4843]

@@brunogalvez9644 La guerra civil que llevó San Martín al exilio al no querer luchar contra sus "hermanos" y que las ideas de San Martín para una monarquía constitucional en el Peru no eran antiguas, eran el mejor cambio para una sociedad que vivió con una monarquia absoluta por 300 años, y que las republicas solo llevarían a un caos como pasó en la vida real.

[@el_Contra]

Nice effort, but very superficial and full of personal opinions... thanks anyway.

Constitutional monarch like UK may be better for Argentina and other SA countries.

[@mariadelrosarioacevedo6858]

Los monarcas están al pedo, eso de que son elegidos por dios es un cuento, la democracia total y la sinceridad política es lo que cada país necesita

[@matute93]

As an Argentine I completly agree, our country has everything to be a rich one, but almost half of the population is poor because of selfish populist politicians and political inestability, having the figure of a constitutional monarch could have reduced the dissasters our regular politicians did to our economy, being completly free to destroy the future to "buy" an election.
