a. Independence

Explanation:

Most of the Spanish colonies in Latin America gained their independence in the first half of the fourteenth century, when several rebellions against Spanish expositions broke out in those countries, led by leaders such as Simon Bolivar and San Martin. In 1817, San Martín conquered the freedom of Chile. Argentina and Peru proclaimed their independence in 1816. Brazil, the Portuguese colony, acquired its independence in 1822, when Dom Pedro I declared that the country became independent of the kingdom of Portugal. In 1825, all the countries of South America were independent.
