**Latin American Revolutions:** The Spanish American Revolutions were a time when the colonists wanted to preserve their natural rights. The Spanish American Revolutions were influenced by Enlightenment ideas and the lower class people, who weren’t born in Spain, started to not like the idea of Europe controlling them.

This is very similar to the American Revolution because the Americans were gaining liberty from Britain, but the Spanish colonists were gaining liberty from Spain. (Camille L)
