Answer 1

The event that contributed to the emergence of independence movements in Latin America is **the French Revolution**. The revolutionary ideas of liberty, equality, and fraternity helped inspire independence movements across Latin America in the early 19th century. While the Industrial Revolution and the American Civil War had significant impacts globally, they were not directly responsible for the Latin American independence movements. The adoption of the English Bill of Rights also influenced democratic thought but did not have a direct impact on Latin American independence.
