The 5 generations that marked the life of Ecuador

In the last 100 years of Ecuador's history there have been 5 generations
that of readers, radio listeners, television viewers, Internet users and cell phones.
The generation of readers began with the Liberal Revolution, which created free secular education, and numerous schools and colleges, and newspapers decided the fate and death of a government. This was how the newspaper El Comercio owned a banker, killed the Old Fighter, in alliance with the Catholic Church, from which he had taken land, political influence, declaring Ecuador a secular state.
This generation lived a period of growth until 1912 when General Eloy Alfaro, who led the Liberal Revolution, died burned in the Parque de El Ejido. After that decade, 10 years of crisis came with numerous presidents, and the bankers, together with the cocoa exporters called Los Gran Cacao, who lived in Paris until the First World War, their plantations were devastated by a plague called the broom of witch and the farmers of her plantations due to yellow fever. Bankers, just as they now became presidents, each bank had its own banknote, which was issued without any backing. When the Great Depression came in 1928, the bankers went bankrupt and the Isidro Ayora government imposed a Central Bank as the sole issuer of banknotes and the sucre as Currency.
For the 1930s the political instability was such that by 1941 Ecuador was easy prey for Peru and the United States, that in alliance they attacked Ecuador, which was the supplier of Germany, Peru was left with the great rubber-producing area in the Putumayo rivers, Napo and Pastaza, to the Amazon and the United States with the Galapagos, where he set up a military base. from 1941 to 1946 expelled by Velasco Ibarra who was unaware of the 1941 treaty.
In these 10 years the generation of radio listeners appeared, in which the radio decided the fate and death of the governments. Then the economic crisis, translated into political crisis, the first communist revolution in South America took place called the Gloriosa, which put a president, Dr. Velasco Ibarra, and the first socialist constitution in South America in 1945.
In the 50s, radios multiplied and electricity, as well as cars, giving rise to a new generation, which with the arrival of United Fruit, during the Galo Plaza government, Ecuador became an exporting country again, and we arrived at the to be the largest banana exporter in the world.
In the 1960s, radio became an instrument of revolutionary struggle and Radio Rebelde served very well the Cuban revolutionaries who installed the first communist government in America. In Ecuador the anti-communism sponsored by the Church, the landowners and the United States, which brought the Alliance for Progress and in 1964 the Americans made the First Agrarian Reform with a military dictatorship, to stop the communist expansion turning the peasants into small landowners and removing the large estates from the mountain landowners.
In the decade of the 70s Ecuador enters a period of prosperity and television arrives, viewers are born and the owners of TV channels decide the fate and death of governments. Ecuador becomes an oil exporter, the military is educated in the best academies in the world, rural medicine and rural education is created, which gives rise to a new mass that is controlled by bureaucrats, teachers and doctors, especially through the MPD party. Rural education generates a great migration to the city, and the construction industry, the cities, the colonization of the Amazon, where oil comes from, develops.
In the 1980s, television became the main political tool, the generation of viewers, they study in universities, where education is free, and the tourism industry develops and banking controls the country again.
In the 90s, the generation of viewers is managed by banks, which have the largest number of national channels, and decides the fate and death of the government until led by Guillermo Lasso, as president of the Monetary Board, they become self-lending , they speculate with the dollar they invest in shrimp farms, ´but a plague comes to the shrimp farms, the white spot, which ruins them, the banks speculate with the dollar until people no longer believe in the sucre and take out their deposits to convert them into dollars and it takes its deposits from the banks, leading to bankruptcy and a large emigration of workers out of Ecuador.
In the 2000s the Internet entered and the generation of Internet users who brought Rafael Correa to power appeared.

From 2010 to 2020 a new generation appears, that of cell phone users, who live a boom in state investment in the Citizen Revolution until Lenín Moreno and the pandemic in which bankers want to return to power with Lasso.
