IOTL Chile was one of the most sucessful south american states but still fell victim to the revolutions and economic troubles they all suffered. Dispite this it was prosperous the briefly be a major naval power and own a colony (Easter Island). What I want to know is how could they be made stronger ? Chile had plenty of minerals and potential for rapid development - surely they could have managed more.
Could they perhaps have gained more land of their neighbours in the wars - perhaps all of Tierra de Fuego or more of Arica ?
