Latin America revolted primarily due to a combination of social, economic, and political factors. The influence of Enlightenment ideas inspired demands for independence and self-governance, while resentment against colonial rule and oppressive social hierarchies fueled discontent. Additionally, the impact of foreign invasions, such as Napoleon's occupation of Spain, weakened colonial authority and prompted local leaders to seek autonomy. Economic exploitation and a desire for land reforms further galvanized the population to rise against colonial powers.

Latin America's first successful revolt was led by Haitian revolutionary Toussaint L'Ouverture. His leadership during the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) resulted in the abolition of slavery and the establishment of Haiti as the first independent black-led nation in the world. This revolt inspired other movements across the region, influencing the struggles for independence in various Latin American countries.

True. Haiti was the first independent country in Latin America, achieving independence from France in 1804 after a successful slave revolt.
John Locke didn't directly influence Latin America, but his powerful ideas did indeed eventually permeate. His thoughts on life, liberty, and property influenced the revolutionaries in Latin America (Bolivar etc.) to revolt against Spain and Portugal
