Why did Simon Bolivar get a country named after him? |
[Edit]
Simon Bolívar returned to the land of his birth, Venezuela, in 1807, and, when Napoleon made Joseph Bonaparte King of Spain and its colonies in 1808, he participated in the resistance juntas in South America. The Caracas junta declared its independence in 1810, and Bolívar was sent to Britain on a diplomatic mission.
