Following the Trend started by my own precedent, 1001 Arabian PODs (about the muslim world) now I bring you this.
I'll start with Argentina, then move on with other countries...I'm sure Gonzaga would like to start with Brazil.
Anyhow, some of the PODs:
What if...
...Jose Fernando de Abascal had Become Viceroy of La Plata in 1804? The reactionary man, IOTL Viceroy of Peru, might not have prevented the revolution in Buenos Aires, but him not being there in Peru almost guarantees earlier successes for the revolutions in Alto Peru, Ecuador, Chile and Colombia 1809-1810;
...The British Invasions had Succeeded? Either through military means, which was possible, or by presenting themselves as Liberators rather than Conquerors. The Later was the basis of Dan's TL When King Nimrod
...A Monarchy had been created in La Plata between 1809 and 1819? the candidates being the Infanta Carlotta de Borbon in 1809-1810, the Infante Pedro Carlos in the same time period; the Infante Francisco de Paula in 1816; the French Louis Philipe, Duke of Orleans, in 1819 and the Prince of Lucca, in the same year.
