The new government adopted the South American trend in economic policy by selling off some state-owned businesses, reducing government spending and attracting foreign investment. It has also joined the Mercosur trading bloc with its neighbors. The Uruguayan left has experienced a mammoth resurgence since the mid-1990s. A leading light has been the massively popular Tabare Vazquez, Mayor of Montevideo until 1994, whose combination of radical politics and pragmatic problem solving greatly improved the quality of life in the capital, and such factors resulted in his surprise election (taking over from Batlle) as President in October 2004. Tabare Vazquez is associated with the leftist coalition

Gral. José Gervasio Artigas Protector of the People Freedom "My authority emanates of my people and it ceases per his sovereign presence" "Mercy for the conquered ones" "I won't sell the rich patrimony of my people by the low price of the necessity" "Be the Uruguayans so cultured as brave" José Gervasio Artigas The 33 Orientales ¡Alive the Homeland! Uruguay's aboriginal inhabitants were the Charrúa Indians, a hunter-gatherer people who cared little for outsiders. They killed the explorer Juan Diaz de Solís and most of his party when the Spaniards encountered them in 1516. In 1680, the Portuguese founded Colonia on the estuary of the Río de la Plata as a rival to Spanish-held Buenos Aires on the opposite shore. Spain responded by building its own citadel at Montevideo. Uruguayan hero José Artigas fought against the Spanish but was unable to prevent a Brazilian takeover of the "Banda Oriental" (the original name of the eastern shore of the Río de la Plata). Exiled to Paraguay, he inspired the "33 Orientales" who, with Argentine support, liberated the territory in 1825 and established Uruguay as an independent State. Uruguay's independence was repeatedly threatened during the 19th century, militarily by Argentina and Brazil, and economically by Britain. Federalist forces in collusion with Argentina besieged Montevideo from 1838-51 and helped create two warring political parties, the Blancos and the Colorados. Around the same time, the British introduced new wool, meat and rail industries. They also replaced the rangy criollo stock with their own cattle, thus commercializing one of the country's few abundant resources. For the remainder of the century, the contest between the Blancos and Colorados continued, immersing the country in civil war, dictatorship and political intrigue.

He was chosen president and was responsible for the succession of Manuel Oribe , against whom he revolted in 1836. In the long civil strife, which was to characterize much of Uruguay's subsequent history, two factions appeared, distinguished by their badges, the Colorados [reds] of Rivera and the Blancos [whites] of Oribe. Rivera succeeded (1838) in routing Oribe, who fled to Buenos Aires. The following year Rivera declared war on Juan Manuel de Rosas , ruler of the United Provinces of La Plata (Argentina). With the help of Rosas, Oribe besieged Montevideo from 1843 to 1851. Rivera, opposed by factions within his own party, was exiled from the invested city in 1847, taking refuge in Brazil. After the downfall of Rosas and the end of the siege, he was selected (1853) as one of the triumvirate to head the provisional government of Uruguay.

[Add Section] History [edit this] [Upload image] The only inhabitants of Uruguay before European colonization of the area were the Charrua Indians a small tribe driven south by the Guarani Indians of Paraguay. The Spanish discovered the territory of present-day Uruguay in 1516 but the Indians' fierce resistance to conquest combined with the absence of gold and silver limited settlement in the region during the 16th and 17th centuries. The Spanish introduced cattle which became a source of wealth in the region. Spanish colonization increased as Spain sought to limit Portugal's expansion of Brazil's frontiers. Montevideo was founded by the Spanish in the early 18th century as a military stronghold; its natural harbor soon developed into a commercial center competing with Argentina's capital Buenos Aires. Uruguay's early-19th century history was shaped by ongoing fights between the British Spanish Portuguese and colonial forces for dominance in the Argentina-Brazil-Uruguay region. In 1811 Jose Gervasio Artigaswho became Uruguay's national herolaunched a revolt against Spain which resulted in the formation of a regional federation with Argentina. In 1821 Uruguay was annexed to Brazil by Portugal but Uruguayan patriots declared independence from Brazil in 1825. With the support of Argentine troops and after three years of fighting they defeated Brazilian forces.
