Texto argumentativo sobre la independencia del Peru en el 1821 teniendo en cuenta la siguiente estructura:tesis cuerpo y conclucion
La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
Tesis.
El Perú independiente, fue el resultado de la lucha de hombres valientes.
Cuerpo.
Bajo el dominio de la monarquía española, la región de Perú era controlada por una oligarquía. Aproximadamente ese periodo empezó en 1895 y su máxima influencia se ejerció por ahí de 1919.
Un pequeño grupo de dueños de empresas financieras y de minería controlaba la economía del país, pero los peruanos eran pobres.
Esas características de la Republica Aristocrática afectaron directamente el movimiento independentista del Perú, a manos de valientes hombres peruanos que estuvieron dispuestos a dar sus vidas con tal de liberar al Perú de las manos de la monarquía española y la aristocracia imperante.
Periodos de constante lucha y derramamiento de sangre, antecedieron a ese momento histórico cuando los Notables firman el Acta de Independencia en el Cabildo Abierto el 15 de julio de 1821.
Más y más ciudadanos se fueron reuniendo para firmar el documento, y para el 28 de julio de 1821, el General José de San Martín hizo la proclamación oficial de la Independencia del Perú, ante la algarabía de los presentes en la Plaza Mayor de Lima.
Conclusión.
Todo movimiento de independencia se gana en el campo de batalla, y Perú no fue la excepción. Valerosos hombres y mujeres dieron su vida para conseguir el anhelado deseo de independencia y libertad, grito del pueblo peruano que defendía sus tierras.
Hoy en día, se honra la lucha y el sacrificio de tantas vidas que perecieron para conseguir la libertad que hoy gozamos.
