Modern Latin America		 A PowerPoint: By Ben Ely
Britain and Latin America The first real concession between Latin America and Britain happened in Brazil roughly around 1810 where British government negotiated preferential trading privileges in Brazil in return for its support for the Portuguese royal family  Merchants with cargoes of manufactured goods, particularly cotton textiles, established themselves in large numbers in ports along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts While in London citizens invested their savings in loans to young governments and the mining facilities promising a new “El Dorado” British and European continental markets were tied in with Latin America, as the shipping rats between them began to fall, their economic dependence on each other intensified greatly British interest thus came to focus more on Brazil and the three southern republics, Argentina, Uruguay and Chile
Britain and Latin America Between 1870 and 1914 British relations with Latin America reached their peak The First World War permitted the United States to gain ground in Latin America at the expense of the European powers By the 1940’s the majority of Latin America’s market was funneled through New York The second world war reduced further trade and put Britain into noticeably significant debt to the Latin Americas Over the next few years many of the pre-1914 investments, which had become almost worthless, were surrendered to Latin American governments in exchange for a cancellation of Britain's debts.
Britain and Latin America Mexico on the other hand faced numerous simultaneous  problems and obstacles  an invasion from Spanish forces in 1829  the secession of Texas in 1835-3 A French intervention in 1838, and war with the United States in 1846-47. Mexico, Peru and Bolivia all provided extreme examples of instability. Between May 1833 and August 1855 the Mexican presidency changed hands thirty-six times ,[object Object]

“The Second World” On January 1st, 1994 The North American Free Trade Agreement to propel Mexico into the first world was put into effect but ironically proved that Mexico and America will continue to suffer until they find better ways to pull Mexico out of the second world Mexico’s joining of NAFTA represented the release of any privilege of leading an independent Latin America This resulted in an exposition of a rural-urban split of mexico revealing four mexicos: Northern region where pesos and dollars intertwine Central region the capital and central breadbasket Isthmus region being economically Distute “New Maya” region being overwhelmingly poor
“The Second World” It will take more than “NAFTA-nomics” to save Mexico and make a country out of it, the U.S. even bailed out the peso during a Mexican financial crisis With all of this in mind, the reality of the situation is that Mexicans are the only immigrant group with a historical claim to U.S. territory, the waves of Hispanic migration to the United States have been dubbed the “Reconquista” This is no one way trade has elderly Americans have been known to migrate to Mexico for it’s affordable health care Only through schemes like Mexico’s “Puebla to Panama” that Central America can take advantage of its geographical location and become a significant corridor on intercontinental globalization
“The Second World” If any country of Latin America represents a relative powerhouse as the united States does, it Is defiantly Brazil Taking up about half the continent with no pretensions to being a military power brazil’s role in the world is based entirely on its environmental resources and massive economy With exports nearing $100 billion per year. Agriculture actually only accounts for 10 percent of Brazil’s economy ,[object Object]
Brazils domestic and incredibly diplomatic evolution separates it from any other Latin American country and prevails it as a natural leader of the worldHalf of Brazil’s exports actually now go to developing countries and boosts trade with all Chinese and Arab nations.
