Answer:

The local elites, the <em>criollos</em>, had wealth, lands and social position, but they lacked political power and were discriminated because they were born in the colonial territories; their families were of Spanish origin, but as they were born in the colonies, they were seen as socially inferior to the <em>peninsulares</em>, Spanish born in Spain and who were the only eligible to the top posts of the colonial administration.  Besides, Spanish restrictions and Madrid monoply of trade impeded increased trade and its benefits with other economies. They  also got inspired by the fight of the American colonies and the independence of the United States, as well by the French Revolution and its ideals. Many heroes of Latin American independence fought with the Napoleonic armies in Europe convinced they were fighting to spread the libertarian ideals of France. Besides, the decadence of Spain added another reason to dream about independence.  The leaders of Latin American revolutions were <em>criollos.</em>

solong [7]

Answer:

(Véase explicación abajo para mayores detalles/See explanation below for further details)

Explanation:

(This exercise is written in Spanish and for that reason explanation will be held in such language)

1) Los países de Europa Oriental que quedaron bajo la influencia de la Unión Soviética son Polonia, Checoslovaquia, Hungría, Lituania, Letonia y Estonia.

2) Ninguno de estos países se adhirieron en forma voluntaria, sino con coacción militar por parte de los ocupantes soviéticos y con el desarrollo de elecciones públicas amañadas que incrustaron a los partidos comunistas en el poder de los citados países entre 1947 y 1949. Un ejemplo de esta situación puede encontrarse en la Checoslovaquia de 1948, cuando Eduard Benes murió en extrañas circunstancias y los comunistas ganaron unas elecciones amañadas que sellaron el destino de ese país.
