Junta Grande

Junta Grande was a ruling assembly in Buenos Aires formed in 1811 during Argentina's fight for independence from Spain. It consisted of representatives from various regions and was responsible for governing and making decisions during a transitional period. The Junta was part of Argentina's larger movement toward self-governance, replacing Spanish colonial authorities. It played a crucial role in setting the foundation for the country's future political development, balancing local interests, and managing wartime challenges. Essentially, it was a collective leadership that worked to establish Argentina’s sovereignty and organize its governance during a pivotal time.
