Bolivia became independent in 1825. As you can see it existed long before that date however. Read on.
Bolivia was once a part of the ancient Incan empire. Spain, the European colonizer,
defeated the Incas in the 1700s enslaving the indigenous people as conquerors.
Geographic remoteness and mountains shielded the people from diseases the
European colonists brought to the new land. In surrounding countries, less remote
and mountainous, great numbers died from diseases Europeans brought across the
Atlantic. This pool of Bolivian natives, allowing the practice of slavery, and minerals
Contributes still to the economic inequities present in Bolivia today.
Bolivia gained independence in 1825 from Spain. By 1825 mineral deposits were
no longer of interest to the Spanish since all economic benefits (accrued to the
Europeans) had been exhausted. The land mass that was acquired from Spain in
1825 as Bolivia was much larger than the present country.
The Bolivia of 1825 was not land-locked as the country is today. The War of the Pacific (1879-1884) settlement between Chile and Bolivia saw Chile acquire a huge chunk of
Bolivian land and its access to the Pacific. Eight years later, 1903, Bolivia ceded
land along with the economic benefits of vast rubber plantations to her Brazilian
neighbors. Paraguay gained the area known as the Gran Chaco in 1938 as victors
of the Chaco War (1932-1935).
