Mid-September Crisis: Difference between revisions

Chile following its independence was rife with corruption and cronyism, as the fledgling government had to deal with reconstruction efforts and consolidation of their currency. For the next 5 years, the administration focused on reconstruction of the nation and for their efforts, experienced a short golden age in which foreign investment from the UK, NewCarolina, NetherlandColombia, and othersother nations fueled the economy and industry of the nation. The 'golden age' would end in 1926, at the height of the [[European Economic Crisis]], as it would hit the nation hard. Chile would experience a period of unrest as unfair wages would be levied on workers around the country. The country would experience political instability, as governments and administrations came and went, with the issues and pleas of the Chilean people gone unanswered.

Chile was not militarily involved in the conflict, but aligned closely with the Cordial League. This alignment gave the Chilean government the funds it needed to recover from the EEC, as well as allies in order to not remain diplomatically isolated in the post-war era. This influenced the nation's anti National Republican stance and its foreign policy in the coming years.
