| YouTube: TODAY IN HISTORY - Independence Day of Uruguay - 25 Aug 2010 Today, August 25, is the Independence Day of Uruguay, commemorating its sovereignty attained in 1825. It is situated in South America between Argentina and Brazil, adjacent to the South Atlantic Ocean. The wetlands in the eastern part of the country make up the Marshlands of the Eastern Biosphere Reserve, which is part of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Man and Biosphere Reserve Program. It consists of 10 sanctuaries and is habitat for approximately 300 species of wild birds, including flamingos and black-necked swans. One of Uruguay's most significant literary figures is writer José Enrique Rodó. His book "Ariel, " published in 1900, emphasizes the paramount importance of maintaining spiritual values. We wish a memorable Independence Day to the fine citizens of Uruguay. |
| It is very important in my point of view if any country like Uruguay to actually not just celebrate their independence day but to also look back on what had happened in the past and what had been the fruit of so many years that gone through. We should also pass the legacy to our children so they would continue remembering that very moment that we stand for our independence. |

Its a bit more complicated than it seems at first sight.In fact we have at least three independences. The first was when the British withdrew from Montevideo and Colonia in 1807 after being defeated in Buenos Aires, the next was when local forces expelled the Spanish in 1813 and the one celebrated on August 25th was when the Brazilians were expelled and the ROU was recognised as an independent buffer state by Brazil, Argentina and the British who brokered the agreement. General Artigas (our great liberator) didn't care for the idea of independence at all as he favoured the concept of a federation with the states which now comprise Argentina so he left in disgust and was only returned after he was dead. |
