Saviors of My Country

"The decisive battle in the war to liberate Venezuela from Spanish rule was fought at Carabobo in 1821." "The royalist army held the high ground so the rebel army under the command of Simon Bolivar was forced to attempt a bloody attack. With the help of British volunteers the rebels won the battle. After the battle Bolivar, who was born in Venezuela, called the men "Salvadores de mi Patria" (saviours of my country)."
