Interesting clip contrasting colonial treatment between North America under Britain and South America under Spain. Despite independence movement, Infrastructure, terrain and lack of shared political vision greatly differed. Video explains why we have "United" States of America and multiple South American countries.

Watch the video. Their burden was greater. American colonies included infrastructure and educational development for the people. Spanish colonies were mainly about exploitive extraction of resources.

LTC Eugene Chu - a great little video - no impetus to rock the boat, so they didn't. The world would certainly be different if the America's were united.
