a and Sarmiento wanted to get rid of these dictators and establish a doctrine or way that the people could be civilized and equal. These are people such that of Sarmiento and Santa Ana wish to go against these dictators in order to get political freedom. The next comparison is the fact that Santa Ana and Facundo were both gauchos. They both went out and battle to take control of the government and to try to change it. The similarity between the two is that Santa Ana after winning over Iturbide tried to take over the government and change it for the better, but in the end caused more harm than good. Just like that of Facundo, when he took over Argentina and implemented his own governing and caused chaos. Both of these gauchos show you that they just strive to do what they want for themselves to make them happy and not the people of nation.The final comparisons is how one can see the liberal ideas of Sarmiento fighting against the more conservative ideas of the gaucho which were going against the civilization in Argentina. For example, Sarmiento wants to end the dictatorship and caudilloism, for these two held down the people’s individual rights and caused obstacles to the advance of civilization. The leaders in the dictatorship and caudilloism try to retain their own ideas and force them on everyone, not allowing for freedom of ideas or rights. In the end Sarmiento wins over the gauchos in Argentina and causes an advance in Argentina’s civilization....
