Have you heard of the "War of the Pacific" before? Your mind will inevitably go to WWII, where the American soldiers fought the Japanese in an endless, bloody battle that culminated in the two atomic bombs being launched on Japan, but...
That's certainly NOT what this was. What I'm talking about today is the war that occurred between Chile and the alliance of Bolivia and Peru, when some trade disagreements turned into a full-blown clash that ended up with very angry neighboring nations facing off, and at least one of them occupied by foreign forces.
But how exactly did things get as bad as having countries attack each other and start a war? Was it justifiable, or was it another case of human stupidity? And what consequences did this leave for the three nations? Find out in this week's episode of the Learn Spanish with Stories podcast!
