Before Venezuela nationalized its oil industry in 1976, there was iron. In 1975, President Carlos Andrés Pérez signed the nationalization of the Orinoco Iron and Steel Corporation, taking control of the massive Cerro Bolívar iron ore deposits from U.S. Steel and Bethlehem Steel. This episode explores how that earlier nationalization served as a test case—a dry run for the much bigger prize of oil. Lucas and Luna discuss the history of iron mining in the Guayana region, the role of the Corporación Venezolana de Guayana (CVG), the engineering feat of building Ciudad Guayana from scratch, and how the iron nationalization revealed both the ambitions and the flaws of Venezuela's state-led development model. They touch on the tensions between foreign companies and the government, the promises of sowing the oil, and the unintended consequences of rapid industrialization. A story of steel, sovereignty, and the seeds of decline. #Venezuela #Nationalization #IronOre #CerroBolívar #CVG #CiudadGuayana #CarlosAndrésPérez #Orinoco #U.S.Steel #BethlehemSteel #Guayana #1970s #OilBoom #SembrarElPetróleo #History #FexingoHistory #LatinAmerica #StateCapitalism Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
