POLITICS


The political antecedents of a Country have been example of many of correct or bad gestation. In Venezuela politics, as in all countries of the world, has had positive and negative aspects that have helped to write our History in fundaments that good or bad have made the development of that what we are today; an example of this are the chances betters that Venezuela faced in 1900 with Military triumph of Cipriano Castro.

As all the leaders of their time, her rustic style was National Government, and its title "Deserving General", exercised power in autocrat form, and send to jail to principals leaders of the Barrios of Caracas and Venezuela, until to obtain a loan solicited and negative by parte of bankers Caracas, who declared irreconcilable enemies of Castro in particular bankers General Manuel Antonio Matos, who gets finance a revolution with help of companies operating in Venezuela. In January 1902, Matos it disembarked near Coro spreading the movement throughout the country for an uprising against the government, Castro obtains subdue and defeat these rises, but in mid 1902, Matos had already organized inside of country, that it faced the troops of the government, kicking off one of the longest and bloodiest battles fought in Venezuela that lasted 22 days and that was sealed with “the horrific record of the civil wars". In others had in 1906, Castro’s enemies proposed Vice-president Juan Vicente Gomez, who in December 1908 reconciles a coup against Castro assumed the presidency.

In concluding can say that, the political aspects that have occurred, that determine the political development of our country Venezuela, both of which are present in every history textbook and will be part of our political generation tree.

ECONOMY


It is important to remember that the practice of exchanging goods is very old, now the trade has become a determining factor in the economy of all nations. According to experts in international trade policy of a country is based on strategies of a group of government actions designed to encourage firms with economies of scale to locate or start businesses in that country, which means an important development for economic development the same.
For the period 1900-1935 the Venezuelan State was dominant in business, under the terms of Cipriano Castro and Juan Vicente Gómez, although it may seem contradictory. By that time our country was implemented what is called a policy of supplies, where the major cities were consuming centers, centers of a brisk trade intermediary and the corresponding policy was to ensure more stable supply for the consumption in the regional circuits of which they depended. In 1936-1945 food supply policy, became a protectionist policy that ended integrate the domestic market, with a national state with the aim of creating physical infrastructure such as roads, airports, ports, basic industries, airlines, free markets, peripheral markets, social media, encouraging the emergence of many commercial products Venezuelans. By 1989 it breaks with protectionism, imposing a neoliberal trend called Structural Adjustment Program, which brought high social costs, triggering strong protests. Regarding price regulation, in 1939 the executive boards were established to fix and publish maximum prices at wholesale and retail prices established in 1974 with the Consumer Protection Act.
From my point of view Venezuela's achievements in foreign policy over the years 70, 80 and 90 despite experiencing low as to what regards economy, but now I think Venezuela should pursue a trade policy where Venezuelan ensure the benefits this brings, and should remain an oil power, where I consider the balanced exchange based negotiation must be paramount, where our country is not affected as it is today.

EDUCATION 1900.


The common characteristic of the twentieth century with regard to education, is the democratization of the same and education, issued by European and American countries in particular and also lead free and compulsory education not only to primary but also secondary .


The Venezuelan nineteenth century education, and the first decades of the twentieth, had a single purpose, location in relation to social and civic spaces and address the educational, was differentiated largely by sex. School programs devoted to the education of girls were permeated and organized by an ideological conception that he thought the female gender predestined by three guidelines. The first, biological-functionalist. Second, moral and spiritual-religious and the third, legal and political, which meant the decline to equality and other civil and political rights, including education and work.Education for young men coincided with national interests and values and also was part of universal tendencies in the individual raise 'morality, intellect and methodical habits of industry, which could be understood as an open road for education for work. the Ministry of Education is named in 1936 Ministry of Education, become federal schools in secondary schools, the Experimental School, the Venezuelan Federation of Master, the First Law of Education during the administration of Dr. Arturo Uslar Pietri, one builds the Universidad Central de Venezuela and edited numerous magazines as Tricolor and Education. In 1950 the Ministry of Education changes its name and establishing bodies such as: IPASME, FEDE and FUNDAYACUCHO, Convenio Andres Bello.


Education in Venezuela, has been paired with his political life has undergone considerable reforms to give the same basic character based on scientific and social values.But in my opinion the mistake of our time is that we are witnessing regressive visions aiming to turn the past into some representation of the country that does not feed in some respects a modern education and updated ..

SPORTS


Sports

Sport is one of the values and fundamental pillars of any society, but not a reality in many parts of the world, this is a factor of social integration and maintenance of health generated by the adoption of many positive values. Over the years the sport has had its recognition by organizing international events such as have been the Olympics.

The sport of Venezuela is characterized by a wide diversity in the geographical area where you are. The first pacticarse mass sport was soccer in 1876, with the arrival of the English miners in the region of El Callao, and today is one of the most popular sports in the country. Next in importance basketball, volleyball, tennis, motor racing, boxing, rugby has become integrated into Venezuelan culture to a lesser extent, in addition to keeping with the passing of the years its own indigenous sports as the case of El Rodeo Toros and Creole Balls.But baseball is undoubtedly the most popular and important sport for Venezuelans, arrives in the country in the 20s by immigrants from the United States and quickly became an activity enjoyed by children and adults.

But I believe and am convinced that sport is part of our lives, the practice or not. For example, soccer or baseball games manage to change the television program, besides being a form of union between parents and children, and reason to stay home or share with friends, etc.. In short our life without its existence would be boring and other serious fun.

RELEVANT ASPECTS

In recent times it is appropriate to reflect and remember all different aspects that were relevant during the period 1900-1999 for both then the following summary of importance to every Venezuelan and) know the evolution and history of different events that were part this time.

For the year 1902, thanks to the submarine cable between Guiria and Trinidad, relieved damage caused by the suspension of the service of French Cable Company operating from La Guaira. In 1905 are overcome political and economic difficulties of the past, the government of Cipriano Castro embarks on some public works programs will be expanded by his successor Juan Vicente Gómez.

Startup to edible oil production with the National Oil Factory in Valencia. In 1910 official decree is given to stimulate the construction of roads. For opening a 1917-18 Agricultural Experiment Station in quotes (north of Caracas), directed by Henri Pittier, and introducing at the University of Los Andes, a School of Surveying.
For each citizen in particular young people is important that they understand the different times lived, to become aware of this form with your country and appreciate what we have today because of what development in this period 1900-1999

TOURISM

It is said that the key element of tourism is putting the individual in direct contact with their natural environment with the aim of providing infrastructure, means and facilities for compliance. Tourism has become one of the most important economic activities of any particular country of Venezuela as it not only impacts the financial sector itself, it also strongly influences the results of other sectors.

In Venezuela we use the construction of different facilities for tourism purposes as the Jardin Acuario, Merida State, built in 1971, The Cable Car System of Merida, built by French companies Applevage, Egeca and Agecom in the year 1956, which is the highest and longest in the world. Great work of engineering that links the city of Merida, located at 1577 meters, one of the peaks of Pico Bolivar, 5.007metros on sea level, was rebuilt in 1970 in the town of Margaret, the birthplace Juan Bautista Arismendi, Faro Porlamar is also built in 1985, In 1986, in Zulia State establishing The Swamp Olivitos a wildlife refuge. Established in 1986, among other infrastructure which has been of great interest to tourists in our country.


So for this period tourism helps in increasing the quality of life of our people and maintaining our natural attractions to be used as tourist attractions places over the years became options to visit.

CINEMA

Cinema has always featured an audiovisual medium in which manifests itself through the big screen movies stories that attract the viewer's attention from actual messages to messages that lead us to a mystical world of dreams.

The starting point is in 1895 when the Lumiere brothers presented the first screenings. Over the next 14 years is undergoing a remarkable evolution, but it was only in 1909 and 1912, when Italy became the world's most powerful film because the filmmaker Griffith, considered influential silent period, he did develop the staging. The proliferation of movie theaters throughout the territory of the United States between 1915 and 1920, while industry was moving from outside New York in a small town in California, near Los Angeles called Hollywood, where independent producers built their studies. Born in 1912 and 1916 the Keystone Kops movie and its main protagonist was Charlie Chaplin.After the First World War, American films are internationalized and dominated the world market in 1926, Warner Brother, introduced the first sound system and perfected the Technicolor films starting in 1933 in color. The arrival of Cinema in Venezuela in 1897 is given in the theater and Barak in 1921, becomes the first scientific documentary entitled "The Venezuelan trypanosome, and 3 years later produced what would be the first feature film shot in the country:" The Climber "based on the novel by Venezuelan writer Romulo Gallegos. In 1927 he created the film laboratory in Maracay's Office, but in the '70s were the years of further development of national big screen, the Venezuelan government approved credit policy to encourage film production and publishing standards for marketing Venezuelan films.


I think that from its inception, cinema has been a medium that has crossed borders, ideologies, customs, cultures, but also based industry is a means of communication, and therefore reflects a country's cultural. From my point of view the imaginative Cinema is a tool, through which we copy styles and ways of thinking ways, "know" countries, cities, races, etc, most of which can be advantageous or not, but mostly leaves to surprise the spectators nor accumulate large masses of fans who are the ones who keep it alive.

THE GASTRONOMY

The interaction with other social groups means that there are exchanges of experiences and knowledge, resulting in a transformation of the indigenous diet of each of the parties involved.
In Venezuela due to the development and proliferation of media, besides the elimination of barriers caused by the opening exchanges of the border, helped bring about the internalization with a large number of immigration issues by providing individuals who have contributed increased the gastronomic variety. It is possible estimate that between 1832 and 1900 entered the country about 67.000 foreigners, mostly from the Canary Islands, Mainland Spain, Italian, German and French were at that time, commercial exchange and Danish Caribbean island of Saint Thomas in northern Venezuela and Europe introduced a major culinary know, thanks immigration of women from the Caribbean island who served as cooks in the country of the foreign aristocracy and native Caracas and in the city of Maracaibo, whose oil boom radically changed its appearance achieving broader market for all kinds of products American manufacturing, newspapers in English, social clubs, sport and commissaries, who were provided with food stores domestic and imported by oil companies to sell at low prices to their workers in the oil fields. Products such as cereals (Corn Flakes), Toddy, the Ovomaltine, fruit juices from concentrates, pulp, oats "Quaker" in pancakes, different kinds of tea, some kinds of jam, some alcoholic beverages such as whisky, among others began be part of the Venezuelan diet, like the introduction of fast food chains, better known as "fast food and McDonald's" from industrialized countries, especially the United States.
Perhaps there are no recipes "Venezuelan pure", but the ingenuity in this country has the taste of the mixture of flavors and knowledge necessary to devise recipes or reinterpret dishes with ingredients from many different borders, then the feeding history of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela we can say that is characterized by the constant presence of transculturations ranging from its origins to modern times.

THE FASHION


Habits that make any specific time or place, especially those related dress up or decorate the fashion in early 1900 with the so-called S shape because of the corset pushing up the bust, waist and shaking their tight skirts widen in the hip way to reach the ground campaign. We are beginning to incorporate tailored suits and cut to male influence for women, followed by the upper class English and French.


In Venezuela, around 1910 the dresses were long, covered shoes, leaving the hardness characteristic of the late former to be nobler. Appear fabrics like velvet, brocade, brilliant silks, lace and embroidery, the skirt, without frame. The feathers and lace were all the rage, highlighting the big hats with lots of decorations and ornaments, the most common accessory bag and was made from velvet or satin embroidered with stones or pearls. The footwear was satin or suede. In 1920, clothing was becoming much more practical. Appears suit jacket dresses with big necklines in the back and a long coat with fur, short skirts stand out. Hats disappear and turn to let your hair grow. In 1926 the women of Caracas had definitely taken the fashion of short skirts and the low waist and the flesh-colored silk stockings, and shoes with heels waist leaving the entire foot in sight. In 1940, started the cult of beauty, turned the corners, making the shoes are styled more pointed. In 1950 comes the fashion to wear comfortable clothing, but returns the imposing silhouette smooth and miniskirts. By 1980, launches the style of underwear visible, being controversial but synonymous with liberation for women. In 1981 he debuted with his first collection of Carolina Herrera in New York this being a success. In 1990, the variety and not a specific and lasting trend are present, without giving much importance to the views of others or trends.


Today fashion has partnering and changing according to different urban tribes. They distinguish the clothing as exclusive brands, namely, to keep certain logo or symbol pattern for a dress accessory or different colors.
