Carta de Jamaica
The Carta de Jamaica (''Letter from Jamaica'') was written by Simón Bolívar in Jamaica in 1815. In response to a letter from one Henry Cullen,
Bolívar puts forward the reasons that caused the fall of the Second Republic of Venezuela within the context of the independence of the nation.
==Historical context==
In 1810 Bolivar had been part of a delegation sent to England to get British recognition and aid for the First Republic of Venezuela.〔http://news.fitzrovia.org.uk/2013/01/14/simon-bolivars-time-in-london/〕 With his Cartagena Manifesto on December 15, 1812 he began to lead the struggle for Latin American independence, involving him in intense military activity.
In 1813 the Admirable Campaign took him very rapidly in just a few months to Caracas on August 6, 1813, to try to re-establish the Republic, which enterprise ended in failure before the troops of José Tomás Boves, in 1814. After this failure he returned to New Granada to attempt to repeat the Admirable Campaign's great exploits, but his followers refused to back him. Feeling misunderstood in Cartagena de Indias, he decided to take his way into exile to Jamaica, on May 9, 1815, aspiring to reach the English-dominated world to win its co-operation with the ideal of Latin American independence. He lived in Kingston from May to December 1815, time he dedicated to thinking and pondering on the future of the American continent given the situation of the world's politics.
