Why are the British Colonist More Prepared

The British colonist were more prepared than the Latin American colonist on so many levels

One way the British were more prepared for independence was they were united. Everyone in the British colonies spoke the same language which made trade, and other everyday activities simpler. The evidence I have to prove this is document E3. This shows that most of the Northeast population was white and there is a small percentage of slaves and free blacks. The next pie chart shows the southern population of the 1970s in the British colonies. It shows that the south was mostly white's, but also included about 1/3 of the population was free blacks and slaves.Both f these charts show that there were two major cultures that  Another document that proves my statements is E4. This also is a pie chart, but this shows the Latin America population. This chart consist of  Peninsulares, Creoles, Mestizos, Mulattoes, Africans, and Natives. Many of the people in the Latin American colonies came from different cultures and spoke different languages, unlike in the British colonies where everyone spoke the same language. Being unable to communicate with everyone in the community was a disadvantage to Latin America when they declared their independence. The literacy in the British colonies made them a lot more prepared than the colonies in Latin America.

Another thing that made the British colonies more prepared was there political experience. A major part of them self governing themselves was they could enforce their own laws as long as they didn't contradict with British laws. Then when they separated from their mother country they didn't start from scratch like the Latin American countries. Thanks to documents F3 and F4 I learned that Spanish government gave the people of the colonies no political power. Once the Latin America countries were able to gain their freedom they had no prior experience governing themselves. Since the British gave political power they had more experience self governing themselves, making it an easier transition when they declared themselves independent
