El Castillo de Chapultepec (Chapultepec Castle)

El Castillo de Chapultepec

Located in Mexico City a top of the Chapultepec Hill, El Castillo de Chapultepec (Chapultepec Castle) has played a major part in the country’s history. Constructed in 1785 by order of Viceroy Bernardo de Galvez, the castle began construction with Lieutenant Colonel Francisco Bambitelli as chief engineer in-charge of the blueprint. When Bambitelli left for Cuba, Captain Manuel Agustin Mascaro took over the project. Mascaro proceeded at a rapid pace, but later was accused of building a fortress with the intent of rebelling against the Spanish Crown. He died a year later with speculation of foul play. Without an engineer, Spain ordered the building to be auctioned but found no buyers. In 1806, the Chapultepec Castle was finally bought by the municipal government of Mexico City.

During the Mexican War of Independence the Castle was abandoned from 1810-1821. In 1833, the building was decreed to become Colegio Militar (Military Academy) from which a watchtower known as Caballero Alto (Tall Knight) as added to its modification.

On 1847, the castle was taken by the U.S. Marines from the defensive futile effort of the Ninos Heroes (Boy Heroes) during the Battle of Chapultepec of the Mexican-American War. The Castle started to acquire its current look when Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico established it as their Imperial residence in 1864. The Emperor hired several architects to achieve a neoclassical style of architecture and make the palace a more habitable place. After the fall of Empero Maximilian I in 1867, the castle was abandoned. Ten years later it became the Astronomical, Meteorological and Magnetic Observatory. After 5 years the observatory was moved and the castle was transformed to the presidential palace as which served eight presidents. Finally on February 3, 1939 President Lazaro Cardenas decreed a law that established Chapultepec Castle as the seat of Museo Nacional de Historia (National Museum of History).

Nueva Espana: Spanish Rule in Mexico

750px-flag_of_new_spainsvg

Viceroyalty of New Spain was the official name of Mexico and surrounding territories during the long rule of the Spanish crown. Acquired through conquest, and assimilated through religious conversions the territory was exploited mercilessly by the Spanish, receiving little benefit beyiond the rudimentary foundations of education, and a backward paradigm of givernment.

The viceroyalty existed between 1521 and 1821, or for 300 centuries. Although during this long period there were a number of revolts, on the whole Spanish rule was remarkably strong and stable. Beyond all the benefits of authoritarianism and violent rule in keeping a subjugated people under check, the role of the Catholic clergy in incorporating Nueva Espana into the territory can never be underestimated.

Spain surrendered Florida to the US, and in !821, the Mexican revolution put an end to their rule over this nation. The remains of the empire would be governed by Spain until the end of the 19th century, when the Us decisively finished of Spain’s colonial empire.

Diversity in Mexico: a blend of cultures and traditions

800px-bonampak_paintingcontrast

Mexico is a nation that boasts of a rich diversity of wildlife. Its national parks and reserve areas are home to many protected species some of which exist only in the borders of this nation.

But rare species is not the only unque aspect of this interesting nation. Mexico is also home to a large number of native people who live scattered across the country, and resist the temptation to assimilate into the mainstream.

The Spanish treated their own native subjects in much more humane and sensible way in comparison to their colonizing colleagues to the north. While today there is little left of the once dominant Native American Civilization, the Mixtec, Zapotecs, the Maya, and many othjer native tribes have contributed greatly to the nation’s prosperity and success. Indeed, Benito Juarez, one of the greatest leaders of Mexico, was himself of Zapotec origins.
