Talk:Bernardo O'Higgins
Appearance
On joining the revolutionaries in 1810
The objective of a government junta was to preserve the interests of the king Charles IV of Spain while was imprisioned by Napoleon on the Peninsular_War. That, at least is what's written in the minutes of such meeting. O'Higgins already an educated man saw this opportunity as a way of independence from Spain, which was confirmed later in 1814 on the "Reconquista"(reconquest) period, where Spanish troops were deployed in retaliation for this attempt to emancipate. --Jotaigna 01:36, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
