Chapetones

The Chapetones, also called Peninsulares, occupied the high and profitable positions of the political and ecclesiastical administration; owners of mines and farms. The chapetones were settlers born in Spain, but they lived in America, occupied the main administrative, military and religious positions. At the end of the eighteenth century, Spanish oppression over America intensified. To sustain the wars in which it was involved, the Spanish monarchy increased taxes in the colonies. In the last quarter of the eighteenth century, the colonies sent to Spain about 10 million pesos a year in taxes. Os Chapetones, também chamados de Peninsulares, ocupavam os altos e rendosos cargos da admistração política e eclesiática; proprietários de minas e fazendas. Os chapetones eram colonos nascidos na Espanha, porém, viviam na América, ocupavam os principais cargos administrativos, militares e religiosos. No final do século XVIII, a opressão espanhola sobre a América se intensificou. Para sustentar as guerras em que se envolveu, a monarquia espanhola aumentou os impostos nas colônias. No último quartel do século XVIII, as colônias enviaram para a Espanha cerca de 10 milhões de pesos por ano em impostos.
