Which South American patriot was known as "The Liberator" for freeing Venezuela from Spanish rule? A. José de San Martín B. Bernardo O’Higgins C. Simón Bolívar D. Francisco de Miranda

Sagot :

Simon Bolivar was known as the Liberator

The correct answer is C, as Simon Bolivar was the South American patriot who freed Venezuela from Spanish rule.

Simón Bolívar was a Venezuelan military and politician, founder of the republics of Gran Colombia and Bolivia. He was one of the most outstanding figures of the Spanish-American emancipation against the Spanish Empire. It helped to inspire and concretize decisively the independence of the current Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru and Venezuela.

In 1813 he was awarded the honorary title of Liberator by the Cabildo of Mérida in Venezuela, which, after being ratified in Caracas that year, was associated with his name.
