Answer:
The absence of armed fight against the mother country (Spain and Portugal), and the result of each independence.
Explanation:
The main characteristic of the independence movements of the Spanish colonies is that in almost all there was a war between the colonists and colonizers that dragged on for some years and ended with the victory of the colonists. It was like that in Chile, Uruguay, Argentina, and Bolivia. In Brazil, <u><em>there were several conflicts during the Independence process, but none directly influenced the Declaration of Independence.</em></u>
The main difference between the Independence movements of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile is the result achieved by each country. In Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, declarations of Independence took these countries directly to the republican regime, while <u><em>in Brazil there was only a political break with the metropolis maintaining the entire system that was in force during the colony.</em></u>
Answer: William Jennings Bryan
Explanation:
William Jennings Bryan was a Nebraska politician who was nominated by his party, the Democratic party, to be their Presidential nominee in 1896 after he gave a rousing speech which today is known as the Cross of Gold speech in support of the bimetal/silver standard.
The standard called for the use of both gold and silver to back the American dollar as opposed to using just gold and was strongly supported by the lower and some middle class. The standard however would have brought high inflation as well as making it harder for the US to trade with other countries.
William Jennings lost the election and the US continued with the gold standard.
