The Venezuelan War of Independence begins with “El 19 de abril de 1810”: The Municipal Council of Caracas, Venezuela deposes the Viceroy and Captaincy-General, and establishes a local junta (Spanish for “administrative council”) to provide local administration until such time that a congress (convention) can be convened to declare independence for Venezuela.
