- At first, Uruguay seems like just any other Latin American country, however, it hides a history filled with conflict for the control of its territory! But why?

yes, we live in a dictatorship being tracked every movement by government ;)
This video is going directly into my "videos that mention Uruguay" playlist. Bringuing the total number to a waping 4.
I am glad to be part of the top5 :D
thank you for covering this war. Uruguay is a very overlooked country, heck you are lucky if someone is bothered to cover the Paraguay-Brazil wars.
You're welcome! I actually wondered about talking about that war when paraguay lost 60% of its population! I don't know much about it, but from what i've heard sounds incredibly interesting!
@@KnowHistory Paraguay lost 90% of its male population in that war, in Brazil we learn that the Paraguayan were becoming the most influential and industrialized country in South America so was in need of a port, but the only way was to get land from Brazil with this they invaded Brazil's territory claiming part of it, but Brazil allied with Argentina and Uruguay beat the Paraguayan army pushing them back to their borders, BUT the Paraguayan general didn't stop with their claims, so Brazil alone invaded Paraguay and marched trough almost all the Paraguayan land slaughtering all the men until it found the general and "put an end" to the war.
@@FWU100 Que burro do crlh, ninguém ensina isso em lugar nenhum.
Another vote for covering the Paraguay wars
@@FWU100I now question much of what I learned in history classes during the 70s/80s in Brazil, when that was so controlled by the military regime of the time. Brazil was very meddlesome in Uruguay and Paraguay internal politics at the outbreak of the war.
You got a suspicious British accent but got a Portuguese thumbnail... i am getting nervous now man.
Great videos. Your videos are valuable my friend..
Quick note: JD de Solís was eaten by natives along with a bunch of sailors in the coast of river plate. It happen in sight of the ships and the rest crew promptly sailed back from were they came, totally shocked.
You always do an amazing job, keep it up!!
I try my best! Thank you for your words and support!
@@KnowHistory you deserve it!! Best history Channel
Bro please make more videos soon I fucking love these
Love your channell, wish you best
Cool a Latin American video, a very underrated part of the world.

Love your vids dude!
great video mate!
Thank you!! :D I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Im ethnically uruguayan in America and this video Rly helped me understand my ancestors. Thank you brother
You're welcome!! I'm glad it meant that much to you :D
@limon ysal ancestorally i am From Uruguay, If u take a dna test Uruguay will come up so there is clearly identifiable genetics from there
@limon ysal there’s no natives in uruguay dumbass it’s like .5% of the population they all got genocided literally to a man. The last three charrua were sold to a zoo in france a century ago.
@limon ysal 2% of uruguayan identify as native, and almost all of them are mixed race. That is ridiculous to say that “most natives assimilated” simply not true historically speaking
@limon ysal do you think having a native name makes the place native ethnically? I come from a state in america called “Connecticut” it’s a native word, and many of the towns have native names” yet there’s little to no natives in ct, I’ve never met one ever here in my whole life
interesting, I never really knew much about this war
Good a new vid!👍
Hopefully there will be another one by January :D
@@KnowHistory Good👍
How do you create maps? Can you make a video about it or reply in a comment?
Good vid. As far as i know the British also had a part to play in the independence of Uruguay.
Always, they were the rulers those days. They prefered a small country between Arg and Brazil to balance power and to secure free navigation of the rivers. Arg had to signed because it was a poor country on those days. Arg couldn´t affort a new war against Brazil. It was getting out from the independence war against Spain and the treasury was empty. Besides, the federal war was about to start... The Uruguay issue was solved for them stopping the advance of the powerful Brazil. From the uruguayan side they didn´t want to belong to the United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata if the not federal fans took goverment in Buenos Aires. It is a little messy, isn´t it?
Yes, as the Brazilian empire's war against Argentina remained in a military stalemate, the United Kingdom mediated Uruguayan independence from Brazil. And in 1828, Uruguay became an independent country. But in the north of the country, Portuguese is still spoken, Uruguayan Portuguese or DPU, Portuguese Dialects of Uruguay. A Portuguese dialect strongly influenced by Rioplatense Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.

Hi! Im a native from the north of Uruguay. I most point out that portunhol is influenced by class too. Usually poor poeple from the outside of the city as poor people speak it. Also historically like my ancestors did it was more common back in the day. Because many of our ancestors were portuguese rural workers who were pushed down there in order to expand portuguese influence in the region. Is a dying tongue in my point of view. It can be saved but Im not sure...
Aguante Uruguay papá!
The Uruguayan map you show is wrong. Until 1851 Uruguayan territory was almost double (until Ibicuy river, instead of Cuareim river, from 1851 on - until today)
NH in português is the same sound of Ñ .
What Programs do you use to make videos like this?
Uruguay mentioned!
I thought this would be about the Uruguayan War (1864), in which Brazil invaded the country and put the Colorado party in power. That war is the whole reason for the much more famous Paraguayan War that followed when Paraguay contested this move.
No acordo de indecência o Uruguai cedeu ao Brasil 55% do território a província do rio grande do sul

Where you at?
Comment on Uruguayan Portuguese, spoken by 15% of Uruguayans. The dialectal variety is also called DPU, Portuguese Dialects of Uruguay, which is strongly influenced by Rioplatense Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese.
That uruguayan map wit a complete lack of the Rio Negro is cursed.
The Rio Negro today is extremely big... but that's because it has 3 dams, Palmar, Baygorría, and (the biggest) Rincón del Bonete.
Those big lakes in the middle of the country did not exist prior to the 1930s.
There was no Kingdom of Brazil. Brazil became an empire in 1822 (until 1889, when it became a Republic).
Na verdade existiu sim, já que oficialmente o Brasil passou a ser um reino em 1815 ( ou seja deixou de ter o título de colônia ) parte integrante do Reino Unido de Portugal, Brasil e Algarves
@@ClaudioPereira222 let me rephrase then, Brazil was never an independent kingdom so there is no such a thing of Kingdom of Brazil that was mentioned in the video. During a few years Brazil was part of the Kingdom of Portugal, Brasil e Algarves, but all control came directly from the Portuguese king D. João and Brazilians had zero power over their own land
One country would be very interesting for a video. Only communist country on Arabian peninsula - the south Yemen
Thank you for the suggestion!! I don't do contemporary history, but talking about the past history of Yemen, is something I plan to do, especially in ancient times!
The video is not technically wrong, but it emphasizes the portuguese side of its history, neglecting the spanish one. Someone who doesn't know about the region may end up thinking that uruguay is a former portuguese colony, snatched by spain and later argentina, unjustly taken from brazil. The first permanent settlement wasn't even colonia, it was Villa Soriano, a spanish settlement.
You didn't mention the tordesillas treaty, and how portugal ignored it most of the time, yet you mention how spain took land from portugal while under the iberian union. You also fail to mention how uruguay and the neighboring provinces of argentina are culturally indistinguishable, yet you mention the portuguese minority (which is not unique to uruguay, as it also exists all along the border between brasil argentina). I don't think you have ill intentions, but the video feels strangely biasaed.
Uruguay didn't even revolt as a part of argentina, it formed its own country (Liga de los pueblos libres) opposing buenos aires centralism, and THEN portugal conquered it.
The conclusion, that uruguay is still closely linked to brasil is also a weird one. It is equally linked to argentina (and the rest of south america, for that matter), yet you don't mention it.
Thanks for your comment. The creator of this video seems to pay more attention to the product that he is advertising and selling than to the content of the vídeo
The Portuguese never respected the Treaty of Tordesillas, it is no wonder that Portugal snatched the Amazon and Brazil inherited it. Not to mention that the Charrua Indians were influenced by the Portuguese Jesuits and traded with the Portuguese. Remembering that the city of Durazno was founded by the independence dragons of D Pedro I, in 1821...not forgetting the influence of Portugal in the north of Uruguay with the foundation of the Santa Tereza fort, in the department of Rocha, founded in 1762. And a fifth of the Uruguayan population until the Uruguayan civil war, was of Portuguese-Brazilian origin. And Uruguay only had a definitive and current border in 1851.
To be fair, he is Brazilian and his profile picture is of the Portuguese flag. ITs no surprise he views the history through a brazilian lense...
❤❤❤❤❤
We want the viking video
The Macedonia of South America.
I know
Banda Oriental Province (still not Uruguay) was military invaded by Brazil Imperium for 7 years.
Banda Oriental Province never belonged to Argentina, but to Provincias Unidas.
Please lets be accurate.
Greetings from Montevideo
The United Provinces WERE Argentina.
@@sergueiignacinskybenitovic3025 Uruguay started his Independence process in 1825, just before Provincias Unidas changed name into Argentina with the Constitution of 1826. So Uruguay never belonged to Argentina, but to Provincias Unidas my dear.
@@sergueiignacinskybenitovic3025 Thats only with 1826 Consitution. 1 year before (25th of August, 1825) Uruguay had already Decleared its Independency. Im sorry...
@@pipaapartments2763 Argentine National Hymn original lyrics (1812):
"A vosotros se atreve argentinos
el orgullo del vil invasor.
Vuestros campos ya pisa contando
tantas glorias hollar vencedor. (bis)".
I'm sorry, my little princess.
@@pipaapartments2763 Yes, Uruguay never belonged to Argentina, but the Banda Oriental, my princess.
But the northern region of Uruguay speaks Portuguese, especially in regions close to the border with Brazil. Around 15% of Uruguayans speak a dialect variant called DPU, Portuguese Dialects of Uruguay. During the Hispanicization process of the northern region of Uruguay, at the end of the 19th century, idiomatic resistance gave rise to DPU, Portuguese Dialects of Uruguay. Mainly in sister cities like Rivera in Uruguay, and Santana do Livramento in Brazil. In Rivera there is a binational technical school and also a binational airport in partnership with Brazil and only one avenue separates these two border cities. The marks of the disputes between Portugal and Spain can be found even in the interior of Uruguay, such as the Santa Tereza fort, founded in 1762 by the Portuguese and disputed with the Spanish on several occasions. And there is also the city of Durazno, founded by the royal guard of D Pedro I, in 1820. And not to mention that the north of Uruguay has always had a strong Brazilian influence, with Uruguay having a border in 1851.
All begins with Tordesillas Treaty. Current South Brazil and Uruguay were Spanish territories since the beginning. Portuguese settlers craved for Rio de la Plata, so it was not the Spanish who took advantage, but the Portuguese. Uruguay indeoendence is the result of British mingling affairs in the area, to ensure hegemony after supporting 'independence' logias throughout the continent. The rest is inane bable.
Heya same thing with Spanish disrespecting the treaty colonizing filipines
@@mistery7893 Focus on the subject:
this video says things all the way round.
If shitty talk against Spain and its civilisatory work in not stopped, unreal stupid fake ' history' will continue to damage us. Stop it, Portuguese have a better support from English speaking authors, just for being UK's allies against Spain for a long time.
Wanna talk about Phillipines? Tell me, Exactly what part of the Spanish discovery of the islands granted them to the Portuguese?
@@Argenbiz Filipines was on portuguese side on the treaty of moluscas,so the Spanish broke the treaty way before the First portuguese city on Uruguay,Plus spain literraly invaded and tryed to conquest Portugal,After 1640 the Tordesilhas treaty doesnt had more vality
@@mistery7893 Portugal swapped Philippines for Amazon and Santa Catarina 🤓
@@Renatoxxxxx541, GOOD swap!
É bom ser brasileiro. O mundo criou uma imagem de um Brasil passivo e neutro (o que é bom!), mas na realidade, nós temos uma tendência a conflitos, eu acredito que esteja no sangue do brasileiro. Aliás, se um brasileiro do período colonial fizer uma pesquisa genealógica da família, encontrará grandes figuras que participaram das guerras e da administração das províncias. E outra, aqui no Brasil temos uma mania de ficar falando "aaah, bora invadir à Argentina; aaah pora pegar a a Venezuela", não fosse pelo barulho que essas guerras causariam no mundo, nós ja teríamos pegado metade da LATAM.
One more country to add to the 5th empire...
Its a joke
Unrelated to this Brazil was mere months of invading Uruguay a final time (they also did it in 1854 and 1864) in 1972 if the candidate they didn't want got elected President, in the end he did tho, so the invasion was aborted.
Uruguay NEVER belonged to Argentina.
When the United Provinces declared independence from Spain the Banda Oriental remained loyal to Spain.
After the siege of Montevideo Artigas resisted Buenos Aires goal of asserting control over the region and formed the Federal League.
However the Federal League was invaded by the Luso-Brazilians and annexed. The cabildo of Montevideo approved the annexation as Cisplatina in 1821.
When Brazil declared its independence from Portugal in 1822 the Brazilian patriots defeated the Portuguese and the province remained Brazilian as it had de facto been since 1816.
In 1825 the natives of the province rebelled against Brazil, later receiving aid from the United Provinces, as they had declared their independence from Brazil and their union the United Provinces, which was approved by the United Provinces congress.
This sparked the Cisplatine War.
United Provinces wargoal: annex Cisplatina.
Empire of Brazil wargoal: keep Cisplatina.
Neither side achieved its wargoal.
In any case, the video is factually WRONG when it says the Portuguese invaded in 1816 (it was a Luso-Brazilian invasion, not just Portuguese) and is also wrong when it shows Uruguay as part of the united provinces when it declared independence, as I said before the province remained loyal to Spain because of the Viceroy Javier de Elio.
But good video nonetheless.
In fact, the Brazilians fought the Portuguese in Uruguay until 1824 (for almost 2 years), as Portuguese troops entrenched themselves in Sacramento and Montevideo (where they held out last).
Such military resistance by the Portuguese to the Brazilians undermined the incipient budget of the imperial government and the Brazilian troops in Cisplatina ― which certainly led to the "Disembarkation of the 33".
It's not wrong, it's partial, but it's also partial your post. In 1811, uruguayans rose in rebellion against Spain and declare themselfs for United Provinces (including Artigas who was himself name gobernador by Buenos Aires). From 1811 to 1813 with the exception of Montevideo the entire country was aligned with Buenos Aires.
In 1814 Buenos Aires captured Montevideo but Artigas started another rebellion against Buenos Aires.
To be noted that Artigas considered himself as one side in a civil war and never declared independence or alignment to a different country.
Again in 1825 uruguayans rose in rebelion and after achieving control of all the territory besides Montevideo in 1825 they vote to join the United Provinces.
Also while Brasil invade Uruguay in 1816 it only achieved control of the entire region by 1820.
As a conclución, legally the region was argentinian for some years, the facto the status of Uruguay was disputed for most of the 1810-1825 period.
First!!!!!
Lucky for the Uruguayans to be freed from the Brazilian extension. If it were still part of Brazil, it would be in a bottomless hole like all other Brazilian states. Like it or not. Uruguay is an example of the same small country that works. 👏👏
O Brasil é a maior economia da América latina e 9° maior do mundo. Por mais que tenhamos alguns problemas sociais estarmos bem longe de ser um poço sem fundo 😅😅
Uruguai belonged to Brasil and was called Província Cisplatina until Argentina start the war of Prata/Plata and then Uruguai become a buffer state to stop the war .
Banda Oriental (still not Uruguay) was military invaded by Brazil during 3 years. Never belonged to it. Please study.
@@pipaapartments2763 The province of Cisplatina was exactly The territory where is Uruguay and was taken by Portugal and kept for Brasil at its indenpendence and lost after The Guerra do Prata, when Cisplatina province become Uruguai.
@limon ysal Não fala merda, o Brasil só desistiu de manter a Cisplatina por pressão de França e Inglaterra. Nunca esqueça, vocês são apenas Buffer-State que existe por mera conveniência. Se somos macaquinhos, vocês são nossos rabos.
@limon ysal você está falando muita coisa sem sentido, O Brasil é um dos poucos países do mundo que nunca perdeu uma guerra e sempre que participou de uma, ele que foi atacado primeiro. A verdade é que o Uruguai seria muito mais próspero e importante se ainda fosse Cisplatina.
@limon ysal nunca fizemos guerra contra o Uruguai nenhuma vez , apenas contra Argentina e Paraguai e países europeus , e em todos os casos, eles nos atacaram primeiro.
