- This video recounts Peruvian history starting from its first peoples all the way to Dina Boluarte's regime. It looks at its politics to explain why it is that Peru has struggled to construct and maintain democratic rule and looks at the Inca empire, independence under José de San Martin, the aristocratic republic, the Fujimori years and the recent political crises.

Modern political history of Peru > game of thrones
Small correction on the last part, the protests arrousing from Dina boluarte's ascencion where very different from teh 2020's one, mostly in the kind of people and the amount of them that participated, by comparison, while 2020's protest was absolutely massive in lima and other cities, the most recent one had a very unnatural and reduced atendance, being more known for the more agresive actions of the protestors, who were mainly peasants and rural folks in very particular southern parts of the nation, who felt represented by castillo, corrupt as he was, and knew nothing of why coups were, well, bad, nor of impeachments, nor any other sort of legal happening, they jsut perceived their " representation" had been done dirty, and a good chunk marched for it.
The protest grew dire when attempts to take strategical infraestructure (aka, airport, gas plants, highway, what not), was answered with an unmeasured show of force by the military, with plenty dead.
Of course, the sad reality of peru is that a 100 dead in the provinces dosen't even amount to one death in the capital, by comparison, it didn't help that most of the citizenship looked at these protest extremely unfavorly, and took the protestors, no matter who tehy truly were, as mere vandals and thiefs using the pretext to sack and destroy(wich, truth be told, had some base, many a ilegal miner and druglord used the protest to sneakily burn police stations and justice department locals were the registers of their wrogndoings were stored or managed.)
Tanta pobre gente que se come la propaganda del comercio doblada
Protests were massive in the south and they were brought to Lima a month after the illegal deposicion of Castillo, by then 40+ citizens were executed by the army and the police. No protestors were tried nor convicted for vandalism or extreme violence to this day, leading to suspect attacks on judiciary institutions were false flag operations as the pattern repeated in many cities in the south. Ties to illegal mining activities and drug trafficking had been discredited as no proof was provided by gov officials to this day. Some people particularly in Lima keep regurgitating whatever they hear from media corporations monopolizing opinion in tv and newspapers
Genial!!!! Gracias por compartir esta información, 🙏😃
i have been binging on your channel for days- this is the best source of information about all the countries you cover! I have always wanted to understand these countries and tried books and documentaries but honestly your information is the only one that i can retain and understand with some clarity
I very much appreciate this comment. Thank you.
@ you are very welcome! I think I have now watched all of the political history videos- you are the best! Now I wish I could understand the middle east and africa and southeast asia
@@justaname935 I have to do an India video for my class at some point. But the Middle East and Africa would take a while.
@ whatever you choose to do i am sure it will be golden! Do you ever consider collborating with another creator? It might be fun
great vid! thanks for the update!
Awesome video, thank you!
Thank you for such a useful and interesting video!
Thanks for watching
Very interesting! I've learned a lot of things in 20 minutes.
Really happy to hear that!
Good video!
Excelente!
great video.
Excelente
Muy interesante lo de Sendero, poco se habla ahora de los desastres y gente mu3rta por culpa de ellos
¿deveras? pense que estaría más presente.
yes indeed
El mejor PRESIDENTE no hay otro
Y ese cuál es???
The only Peruvian president I've ever met was Alan García. All I remember from him was his big smile.
This may be the single most crazy political history of any country ever!
Not so sure that it is of any country, but it's definitely wild.
I think in 12:50 you meant 1986 and not 2007
The graph is from 2007, but that was confusing because I did mean the Alan period with the arrow.
covering political parties and the army isnt very useful if we dont understand the economic powers and structures they represent. The question of who owns and controls the country's resources is a good place to start.
Hooooo🥱
Good video, but there's a correction on the ideology of the Shining Path movement. Their ideology was Marxist-Maoist. Not Marxis-Leninist
Not Marxist Maoist, Marxist Leninist Maoist
17:30 this is simply not true he is alive and well somewhere including but not limited to Hawaii
Nice joke dude
Show the documents for a longer time so that we can read them and show yourself less.
I don’t show myself at all. Do you mean the hand?
I mean yourself.
Who is the lady we see? Isn’t that you?
No.
Then show her less.
Thanks for this video
thank you for watching

Glad to see you leave 😌
What’s up with Peru like wanna do a coup so bad
It is something part of our essence 🗿. It is not for nothing that the largest popular and most powerful party (which is not saying much, really) is the party of the daughter of Alberto Fujimori, the last dictator, and her release from prison is popular (or at least it did not generate a strong reaction against him)
@@paologutarra2708if there's something that Peru's history has showed us, it's that Keko will inevitably become the president of the country one day
@paologutarra2708 that's what happens when you let an elite that built an apartheid state stay in power after you emancipate the indigenous peasants. Her supporters are all rich white guys who want to introduce another complete overroll of the countries economy. Same reason castillo was couped.
