The
southeastern region of South America we now call Uruguay was occupied
by Britain for a few years in the early 1800s, and then it was the
site of fighting and sieges in a four-way struggle between Spain,
Portugal, Argentina, and Brazil.
Enough
was enough! Uruguay declared its independence from Brazil in 1825 and
finally became a recognized independent nation in 1828.
The
new nation had a legislative group that crafted a constitution based
on the relatively new constitutions of the United States and France.
Like the U.S., the government was divided into three branches
(legislative branch making laws, executive branch enforcing laws, and
judicial branch interpreting laws). Unlike the U.S., Uruguay had an
official religion, Roman Catholicism. (Now the nation has no official
religion. Like the U.S., church and state are officially separated,
and religious freedom is guaranteed.)
Uruguay's
constitution was put into use on this date in 1830.
Here
are some cool things about Uruguay:
An
artist named Carlos
Páez Vilaró created a place that served as his home, his
studio, and a hotel. Called Casapueblo, this building is billed as
“livable sculpture,” and people visit it from all over the world.
It now functions as a museum, art gallery, café, and hotel.
That
sculpture is on the beach...and Uruguay's beaches are pretty
gorgeous!
Uruguay's
capital city, Montevideo, is an interesting mix of modern and
historical, Europe and Latin America.
