Summary of CHILE A PRINCIPIOS DEL SIGLO XX

00:00:00 - 00:05:00

Chile experienced a number of important events in the early 20th century, including the establishment of its first republic in 1891. However, the class of people who knew and analyzed these events at the beginning of the 20th century did not detail the various epochs and events that have occurred until now. The social issue in Chile in the 20th century was the inequality of wealth and the increase in migration from the countryside, which created poor working conditions and inadequate housing. These conditions were exacerbated by inadequate hygiene and safety in the workplace, and child labor. This led to a number of strikes and protests, the most well-known being the Santa María de Iquique school massacre in which over 3000 students were killed by the military and police.

However, the class of people who knew and analyzed these events at the beginning of the 20th century did not detail the various epochs and events that have occurred until now. We will now complete this task with the Chilean parliamentary republic, which began in 1925. Remember a little of what happened in the 19th century during Chile's century of transition, during which we were dependent on our country who had organized themselves as a nation. There were many attempts at constitutional reform and notable personalities who helped promote this idea, such as Diego Portales. The first laws of our country were created under his leadership, and two political groups were always in opposition - conservative and liberal - even leading to a civil war in 1891. This was an era of cultural, technological, and intellectual development, as well as military conflicts. Chile ended the 19th century with its civil war of 1891, after which the president Balmaceda transferred government authority to the National Congress, which began the parliamentary republic. This system of government had a limited participation of the public, as only men over the age of 18 could vote. This led to rampant corruption and electoral

These conditions were exacerbated by inadequate hygiene and safety in the workplace, and child labor. This was called the social issue, and due to it, the grandchildren of the original protesters organized and demonstrated their discontent. They attempted to find solutions through labor laws, health benefits, and better wages and conditions. Strikes took place in different parts of the country, the most well-known being the Santa María de Iquique school massacre in which over 3000 students were killed by the military and police ordered by the government despite the church's attempts to organize the workers and the organizations of the working class. This situation continued and worsened in the future years. The ideas, forces, and power of this class are the political system that prevails in Chile - a parliamentary system dominated by the National Congress. The power of the oligarchy and economic elites is greater than ever, and the classes of the popular majority, made up of peasants from the countryside and workers, are integrated by migrants from the countryside and businessmen. The bonanza of salitre, a major economic activity in Chile, was invested in public works and urban
