It is said that Ferdinand had established a despotic government and exiled the "liberal" figures and founded the "inquisition" of the Catholic Church (Inquisition) once again. However, it is clear that the real cause of the conflict of London with Ferdinand, is the conflict of King of Bourbon with the politics of oligarchy Kingdom and the United States of America in South America, not sympathy of London for "democracy" in Spain. Finally, when Ferdinand sent troops to fight rebels in South America (summer 1820) was met with defiance and disobedience of them. The rebellion, which is known as “the liberal revolution” on Spain, led to the establishment of the "parliament" and constitutional monarchy in Spain and the Spanish colonies’ independence in South America at the same time.
Then king was imprisoned in his palace.
Ferdinand, shortly after the "liberal revolution", in a letter to his cousin, Louis XVIII, to reassert his authority asked for military help. Louis XVIII brought the question to the attention of Metternich and Austrian Chancellor, who knew himself as the guard of reign privacy across Europe, formed the meeting of representatives of the European Union in the city of Verona. Congress of Verona (October 1822) was coincided with the authority of George Canning in England and the activity of Stratford Canning in the United States.
In this congress, Duke Wellington, the British representative, was a strong opponent of military intervention in Spain. Despite this opposition, the majority of members of Congress took the decision to intervene militarily. As a result, in April 1823 the French army commanded by the Duke Nzhvlm, the nephew of Louis XVIII, entered Spanish territory and occupied Madrid on May 2, and restored the autocratic monarchy of Ferdinand and suppressed "liberal" opposition severely.
However, the court of Spain was not in a position to rule his colonies in South America. Court of France also strongly was warned by the UK and it was not able to help in this area. England immediately under the pretext of supporting "Great Britain’s trade" sent his political representatives to the republics of South America. This "was actually meant to recognize their independence."
Events of Spain and the Congress of Verona was very profitable for the Rothschild.
During the Congress, Salomon de Rothschild, with Metternich and Gnats, were present in Verona. Later, James de Rothschild of Paris and Karl Rothschild of Naples joined him. During the Congress, Gnats Salomon announced de Rothschild to the representatives of Russia and the £ 6.6 million loan agreement of Rothschild was signed with the government.
News of Verona Congress in stock markets of Europe was extremely helpful and once again, such as the Battle of Waterloo, the private post of Rothschild had the stock markets in his hands.
At this time, James Rothschild take advantage of spreading the confidential news of Congress as an effective tool to manipulate the Paris stock market. It was effective to the extent that Cont. Dovileh, the French Prime Minister, in a letter (November 18, 1822) wrote that the rumors of James Rothschild about Wellington’s opposition to military intervention in Spain led to "increased fraudulent" of stock on the Paris stock market. Corte says: "Thus, Rothschild’s Foundation benefitted from the general political situation since he was able to achieve immediate news."
In case of invasion to Spain, Louis XVIII and the Cont. Dovileh considered James Rothschild as the main source of funding for the war. Despite this, correspondences revealed Rothschild’s secret with some Spanish banking that he had close and active relations with "liberals" of Spain, namely the opponents of bourbon,. One example is the secret correspondences of James Rothschild with one of the premier dealers of Spain named Delis who was in the front of "liberals" and he was trying to bring down the government of Spain and intervention against France.
However after the grant of 23 million francs in loans to the court of Louis XVIII, the pressure of costs for the expedition was stopped. Blaine is the founder of the aforementioned principle of Jewish descent, the military contractor in eighteenth century. Cont. Dovileh In a letter to the Duke Nzhvlm, the commander of the French forces in Spain, wrote about James Rothschild:
This man personally knows most of those who we need to support us... His Royal Highness can provide through Rothschild’s Foundation all his financial needs, including the costs of war and negotiations.
During the war in Spain, Baron James de Rothschild achieved a stronger position in the French court than before and won the award of "Legion Donor" for his services in the war.
The Spain war made the Dictator government of Ferdinand VII to the large debtors of the Rothschild.
King of Spain shortly after the restoration of power, demanded Louis XVIII to give him loan in order to consolidate the foundations of his rule, and the king of France referred him to James Rothschild. The outcome of negotiations of Rothschild Foundation and the court of Spain, was granting 120 million (1823). This loan was paid to the court of Spain with the participation of Nathan Rothschild and two famous plutocracy "Quaker", namely and Alexander Baring and John Irving. They in return for the loan deposit all revenues of Spanish colonies in South America.
With the death of Ferdinand VII, his three-year old daughter namely Isabel II of Spain became the Queen (1833-1868) and her mother, Maria Christina, took the power as the regent. At this time Metternich supported Carlos Ayzvdvr (1788-1855), brother of Ferdinand VII and the rebel uncle of Queen. Isabel and her mother were supported by London.
Thus, Spain, like Portugal, turned into the bloody war of "rebel uncle” against "liberal" Queen for many years. These wars of Spain are known as the "Wars of Karlystha". Carlos descendants (members of the branch "Karlyst", the House of Bourbon in Spain) called themselves King of Spain until the twentieth century and claimed the throne of this land.
At the Congress of Verona, Another incident occurred that once again the authority of the "new class of bankers", and at their head, the Rothschilds, was on display as an independent power behind the government.
The British government, before the system of granting aid to allies, had paid military costs of the war with Napoleon and this cost was about two loans amounting £ 6.22 million that was paid to the Austrian government. The issue remained dormant for years after the fall of Napoleon. Finally, at the Congress of Verona, when Metternich opposed the English policy of non-intervention in Spain, Wellington announced that the Austrian government should pay the debt. Wellington announced an amazing figure: 23.5 million pounds sterling! This amount included both the principal debts of Austria and also its interests. Metternich refused repayment of this debt and this problem became a crisis in relations between the two governments.
In fact, the Austrian government had begun its economy two years ago with a loan of 5 million pounds "lottery" from Rothschilds and it organized its economy with great difficulty, and even he could not pay back the debt. Count Stadion, the Minister of Finance, stated unequivocally that the United Kingdom's insistence on receiving this payments mean the collapse of the Austrian economy. The result of negotiations between the two governments was not satisfactory. After many talks, the figure became four million pounds for Britain that had insisted on receiving it. Finally, Metternich to solve the crisis came to Salomon Rothschild and demanded him to use the influence of his brother, Nathan, in the English government and settled the matter.
Nathan, along with Alexander Baring and John Irving, negotiated with the British government, and eventually convinced them to receive only 5.2 million pounds from Austria.
Rothschilds accepted to repay the debt in exchange for the issuance that public debt were incurred in Austria. Thus, from 1824 with the release of 30 million fluorine bonds, they began complex financial operations. The value of these securities in Europe stock markets rose rapidly and Given the Rothschilds the enormous profit. Corte writes that it is impossible to estimate the real benefit of Rothschilds in this case. But according to some estimates, their profits up to April 1825 amounted to 1.8246 million pound sterling.
Bloody riots and wars in Latin America provided a thriving scene for the mysterious and complex financial endeavors of plutocracy of Europe, especially the Rothschilds. This is a very turbulent area in which the operation and independence of European financial and political adventurers such as Francisco Miranda, Simon Bolivar, Irish Bernardo Avhygynz (1778-1842, founder and dictator of the Republic of Chile) and Spanish General José de San Martín (1778-1850, father of the independence of Argentina and Peru), who initially called his staunch follower of the ideals of liberal democracy, were hardly mixed together.
This is not strange and unusual that independence was created through wars and riots in Latin America and by a generation of the harshest dictatorships in the history of mankind. This process is not due to "climatic features" of Latin America and the "mercurial temperament" of their people, as some claim, but precisely because of the structure and composition of the forces that brought about the independence of these territories
Adventures and intrigues of the nineteenth century in Latin America were too ironic and tragic that in recent decades has become the subject of many movies. In this study we cited three illustrative examples:
Haiti, in Central America, in 1804, declared its independence from France.
Since then, this land was turned into bloody conflicts and the adventure of ruthless dictators, such as Henry Christopher and Jean-Pierre Boyer took control of the island. France also tried to recapture Haiti but failed.
