Revolución de Mayo Argentinista

The Revolución de Mayo was a pivotal event in 1810, marking Argentina's move towards independence from Spanish rule. It began with protests and political unrest in Buenos Aires, driven by local leaders' desire for self-governance amid Spain's weakening control during the Napoleonic Wars. The revolution led to the formation of a local government called the Primera Junta, initiating a process of political and social change. This event is celebrated as Argentina's birth of national sovereignty and the start of its journey to become an independent nation.
