Can you compare the emergence of nation states in 19th century Latin America with 20th century Middle East?

Both 19th century Latin America and 20th century Middle East saw the rise of nation states following periods of colonial rule. Latin American countries gained independence from European powers in the 19th century, leading to the formation of sovereign nation states. In the 20th century, the Middle East experienced decolonization and the establishment of new nation states following the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire after World War I. Despite similar trajectories, the specific contexts and challenges in each region led to distinct outcomes in the formation of nation states.
