Question

How did economic depression after WW1 affect governments in latin america

Answer 1

Latin America was suffering greatly from their decrease in exports. World trade was also decreasing. This meant that Latin America was not getting the money they needed to run their countries and keep stable governments. People began mass protests against the governments, and military coups were attempted and many were successful. These newly formed governments found it very difficult to run their countries as a result of the state of instability the countries were already in.
