To this day, neither the Indians nor the Negroes in the New World have had a decisive political influence, even when they were the majority of the population, as was the case with the Indians in Central America, because the Indians or Negroes have never occupied a dominant position in any of the larger countries in the New World. Everywhere, they accepted the political rule and culture of white Europeans. It was only after the Second World War that they began to organize, effectively assert their rights, and participate in the worldwide awakening and resistance movement of the colonial nation. In South Africa, the black majority has a very different meaning. Although this majority did not enjoy equal political and social rights from the beginning, their attitude was quite different from that of the Indians and blacks in the New World. Black South Africans feel supported by 17500 their more than million fellow blacks now living in other parts of the continent, most of whom have won their independence. In other words,digital signage kiosk, they have confidence in blacks because they live on a continent where blacks dominate. The Negroes and Indians of North and South America were much less confident because they lived in a new world in which the white people were far superior in numbers and strength. Second, political Europeanization The European colonies in the colonial period had various political systems from the beginning. This variety of political systems is due to the different political backgrounds of the mother countries. Spain, for example, was ruled despotically by the Madrid court,thermal imaging camera, and naturally the Spanish colonies were ruled in the same way. The officials sent to the colonies had virtually absolute power, so the colonists had little choice but to take orders. The colonists were rarely given administrative positions. Of the 672 governors, commanders-in-chief and magistrates who served in the Latin American colonies, only 18 were long-term residents of the colonies, while the remaining 97. Four percent are long-term residents of Spain. The French colonies were also ruled despotically, as power there was concentrated in the hands of the governor and the magistrate; the governor was responsible for the defense of each colony, and the magistrate dealt with economic matters. On the contrary, the British colonies had elected representative institutions, smart whiteboard price ,interactive whiteboard prices, reflecting the thriving parliamentary system of government in the mother country. The precise nature of these representative institutions varied somewhat from colony to colony. In Virginia, settlers were allowed to elect local councils as early as 1619. The power of this body grew, and by the time of the American Revolution its influence exceeded that of the royal governor. In New England, instead of individual settlers venturing out into the wilderness, groups of people migrated to outlying areas and founded new towns. There, they developed a kind of municipal Council, which held regular "town meetings" at which decisions were made and officials were elected. Despite these differences in the exact form of political power, all thirteen colonies had one thing in common: popular participation in public affairs, which led to constant friction between elected members and royal officials. In 1774, an official named William Knox ruefully contrasted the recalcitrance of the British colonies with the good discipline of the French colonies: The administration of the French colonies is particularly noteworthy and worthy of emulation; they have taken every precaution of a wise and prudent state to ensure good order and government; they have appointed governors with due authority, and they have established parliaments not only to maintain the rights of the crown, but to assist the governors. The people are happy without the arrogance of the popular government in which our countrymen are proud. If such a plan is adopted to govern our colonies, our kingdom will be happy. Knox's concern at the time of the Revolution about the "arrogant thinking" of the inhabitants of the British colonies proved to be entirely justified. These ideas led to the call to arms in 1776, which led to the establishment of the independent United States of America. In addition, the revolutions in the Thirteen Colonies caused a succession of similar uprisings that swept all the colonies in the New World for 60 years from 1776 to 1837.
The example set by the Thirteen Colonies, whose successful revolutions were immediately sympathized with and emulated, was one of the factors that contributed to the resistance in Latin America. Latin Americans are as familiar with what they call the philosophy of Philadelphus as they are with the teachings of the French philosophers. The so-called "ship of the Enlightenment" sailed across the Atlantic to smuggle the works of French philosophers to America in large quantities. According to one historian, Venezuela acquired so much of Rousseau's "Social Contract" that in 1807, shops tore out its pages and used them to wrap food. Spain's colonial policy, especially economic exploitation and lack of autonomy, was another obvious factor leading to the revolution. Because of the concentration of power in the hands of officials from Spain, the Creoles (Spaniards born in the Americas) and Mestizos (mixed Spaniards and Indians) were very unhappy. The long years of the French Revolution and the wars waged by Napoleon I also promoted revolutionary ideas, because during the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars, Spain in Europe was occupied first, leaving the Spanish colonies to fend for themselves. The Spanish colonies were unwilling to give up the new freedoms they had tasted and enjoyed, and they were supported by foreign powers interested in the dying Spanish colonial empire. Napoleon Bonaparte's rule of Spain and the ascension of his eldest brother Joseph to the throne of Madrid were the direct causes of the Latin American revolutions. The Spanish colonists refused to recognize Joseph and declared their allegiance to Ferdinand VII, whom he deposed. Their declaration of allegiance did not convince the Spanish authorities,touch screen digital signage, and in 1809 full-scale war broke out between the patriots and the loyalists. In this war of independence, which lasted until 1825, the help of the British was as decisive in the victory in Latin America as the aid of the French had been decisive earlier in the victory of the Thirteen Colonies. hsdtouch.com
