alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

El 25 de mayo de 1810 es la fecha patria mas importante de la historia de la República Argentina, pues en dicha fecha se conformó el primer gobierno patrio, iniciando la Revolución de Mayo que comenzó el proceso independentista del entonces Virreinato del Río de la Plata, el cual culminó el 9 de julio de 1816 con la independencia de las Provincias Unidas del Río de la Plata, hoy en día Argentina.

En esta fecha, patriotas rioplatenses depusieron al gobierno de la corona española comandado por el Virrey Cisneros, estableciendo una junta de gobierno criolla a cargo de Cornelio Saavedra y dando inicio a la Guerra de Independencia de Argentina.
