Jose de San Martin and Argentina Ja’lynn Smith, Rafael Gonzalez, and Michelle Marcial

Jose De San Martin Early Life - was born in Yapeyu in the area of Corrientes, Argentina, in José de San Martin was the youngest out of the five children - his father being the governor was sent to Spain and therefore jose left argentina and went to spain when he was 7 -He joined the army as a cadet when he was 11 - San Martin took part in a Spanish campaign that took place in Africa. In 1791 San Martin fought against the Moors in Melilla, Africa also in Oran, Africa with others. Later on in 1793 San Martin was promoted to Sub-Lieutenant.

-At nineteen he served with the Spanish navy, he fought the British on many occasions. -One time his ship was captured, but he returned to Spain in a prisoner exchange in which he proved to be a skilled, loyal soldier. -When France invaded Spain in 1806 he fought against them and earned the rank of Adjutant-General. - Britain attacked buenos aires (in argentina) twice in 1807 Using the alliance between Spain and Napoleonic France as an excuse, attempting to weaken Spain and gaining valuable New World colonies Military Career with the Spanish to Joining the Rebels

- spain suspected and were correct of British wanting buenos aires for its rich land but were unable to send any help to them - buenos aires fought off the british on their own and made them wonder about spain’s loyalty. to them spain was only interested in taking the taxes but did not hold up their deal when it came to protection.. - As Napoleon’s armies conquered Spain, leaders in buenos aires knew that they couldn’t depend on the spanish crown to protect them -they declared a temporary independence 1810 and wasn’t permanent until 1816

-san martin seemed the most unlikely person to leave his country and join the insurgents (armed rebellion against a constituted authority) in South America because of his success as a soldier and war hero. - September of 1811, San Martin got on a British ship to Argentina and joined the Independence movement there. - He was the highest ranking Spanish officer to leave to the patriot side in all of Latin America. - He arrived in Argentina in March of 1812 and was doubted by Argentine leaders, but soon proved his loyalty to them. -San Martín accepted a modest command, but made the most of it, harshly training his new soldiers into a good fighting force. - January of 1813, he defeated a small Spanish force that had been messing settlements on the Parana River. -This victory (one of the first Argentines vs the Spanish) gave hope to the patriots, and soon San Martín was head of all of the armed forces in Buenos Aires.Buenos Aires

Argentina Independence - In 1814 Ferdinand VII came back, but by then Argentina was tired of the Spanish rule. -On July 9, 1816 Argentina officially declared independence from Spain, and with the military leadership of José de San Martín,José de San Martín was able to defeat Spain's attempts to retake it. You go Argentina!

Jose De San Martin Legacy -San martin also took leadership for the liberation of chile and peru - San Martín is considered the greatest national hero of Argentina, Chile and Peru - he soon retired despite his leadership being needed in politics. - In Argentina, there are statues, streets, parks and schools named after him wherever you go. - History was made out of his decisions and today his military choices are held up as examples of military wisdom rather than giving up at the sight of danger.
