On April 19, 1810, a group of Caracas aristocrats, backed by a crowd in the Plaza Mayor, deposed the Spanish captain general and formed a junta that claimed to rule in Fernando VII's name. But within months, that junta was issuing declarations of human rights, abolishing the slave trade, and sending ambassadors to London and Washington. This episode walks through the single day that ignited Venezuela's independence — the meeting at the Cabildo, the role of the mantuanos, the undercurrent of popular pressure, and the figure of Vicente Emparan, the captain general who asked the crowd if they wanted him to govern. His famous walk to the church and back sealed the fate of Spanish rule. We also look at the broader context: the French invasion of Spain, the vacuum of legitimacy, and how the events in Caracas echoed juntas across Latin America. This is the pivot point — not yet war, but the moment the old order cracked open. #Venezuela #History #Independence #April19 #1810 #CapitaniaGeneral #Caracas #Cabildo #VicenteEmparan #Mantuanos #JuntaSuprema #FernandoVII #SpanishEmpire #LatinAmerica #Revolution #FexingoHistory #Podcast #SouthAmerica Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
