How did Brazil's way of gaining its freedom differ from the other South American countries?

The events leading to Brazil’s independence started in Europe. Emperor

Napoleon of France invaded Portugal and Spain in 1807 and 1808. The

Portuguese rulers fled from Lisbon, Portugal, to Brazil. Brazil was a Portuguese

colony in the New World. The Spanish monarch1 was captured and temporarily

imprisoned.

All of Spain’s colonies in the New World were on their own. Though the

colonies officially belonged to Spain, they did not want the king always looking

over their shoulders and managing their affairs. The colonists wanted much

more freedom from Spain. They began to see the imprisonment of their monarch

as a chance to gain independence. Latin Americans started to rise up against

the lingering signs of Spanish power. Spain was determined to hold on to its

New World colonies. The two sides fought many bloody battles in Central and

South America. Spain’s colonies2 fought a long, hard war for independence.

In Brazil, it was different. The colony became independent more

peacefully. Prince John VI, the future Portuguese monarch, escaped Napoleon

and moved to Brazil. The colony became the seat of the grand Portuguese

Empire that covered parts of Africa, India, and Brazil. The future king of Portugal

stayed in Brazil for 13 years. He grew attached to Brazilians and the colony.

Brazilians did not feel removed from the Portuguese government. Instead, they

felt that the prince brought status3 and glory to their colony. Indeed, in 1815,

John VI announced that Brazil would be a kingdom, on equal footing in the

Portuguese Empire with the kingdom of Portugal itself.
