Liberation of the Argentine
The Liberation of the Argentine refers to a historical movement focused on achieving independence from Spanish colonial rule in the early 19th century. Leading figures such as José de San Martín and Manuel Belgrano sought to establish a sovereign nation by uniting provincial efforts against colonial authorities. This process involved military campaigns, political negotiations, and social change, culminating in the declaration of independence in 1816. The movement was part of the broader Latin American struggle for self-determination and laid the foundation for modern Argentina's national identity.
