  • Summary

  • Simón Bolívar is known as the Liberator, and he rightly gained this title... but there is another, one who fought as hard as Bolivar but was nowhere near as recognized as the Venezuelan: José de San Martín.


    Born in Argentina and raised as a Spanish soldier who fought for the Spanish Empire, José de San Martín's eyes were opened to the human desire for freedom, and made it his personal goal not only to topple the Spanish colonizers in South America, but to do it in the humblest and most selfless way possible.


    You see, San Martin did not want the fame or the glory of becoming "the Liberator" that Simon Bolivar did, and when he was at his peak, having achieved so much and saved so many lives... he gave his power away.


    Find out why, and what exactly this legendary figure did, in this week's episode of the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast!
