Posting this here because I'm not sure where else it would go.
I'm trying to do research for future updates on my timeline (link in signature [/advertising]); however I'm running into a brick wall when it comes to researching the history of South America in the mid-19th century. It appears that, asides from a few very specific events, most online sources describe the period in as few sentences as possible; usually something along the lines of "(Country X) was characterized by a period of political instability and a declining economy."
Could anyone, please, point me towards some more informative sources for research on and period? Specifically the late 1840s to early 1860s.
