“But virtually the same conditions that were giving impetus to the separatist movement in Spain’s North American viceroyalty, were also widening the breach between the mother country and her subjects on the southern continent.”
Let’s go rebels let’s go

Interesting section spotlighting the injustices of the Spanish crown:
- They did not pay the tobacco planters the full price for their tobacco; in fact they paid an extremely low price and then manufactured it or resold it from there (presumably at a higher price)
- They however did not impede the cattle business (because it wasn’t up to par with Spain’s at the time anyway).
- More notes but character limit

Lovely to see that faculty of UT Austin assisted with this book :)
