First Cry of Independence
On August 10, a Libertarian Board made up of Creoles from Quito signed an act declaring that Ecuador ceased to belong to the Spanish crown.
It is one of the most symbolic and emotional moments of all moments, since it was the first time that Ecuadorians expressed their desire to get rid of their Spanish yoke, who had been the colonizers for centuries.
This libertarian act that had among its heroes Eugenio Espejo, Alfonso Guashpa, Javier Ascázubi, María Ontaneda, Carlos Montúfar, Rosa Zárate, among others, fought for the independence that was conceived in the house of Manuela Cañizares in 1809.

The revolutionary event is part of the history of America, which at that time ignored the Iberian Government after a citizen uprising that allowed Ecuador to be declared a free and sovereign country.

On August 10, a liberal committee made up of Creoles from Quito signed a bill declaring that Ecuador no longer belongs to the Spanish royal family.

The military government was very united at the time, meeting on August 11 and five days later, on August 16, and solemnly announced all that it had done to support independence. When the rebellion began to grow ideologically, in fact the leaders of the military government began to be alone, little by little imprisoned and isolated.

A year later, on August 2, 1810, soldiers and supporters of the aforementioned military government entered the barracks in search of intellectuals. This led to the massacre of all the "insurgents" deprived of their liberty. The so-called "Massacre of August 10" allowed citizens to begin to collectively resist oppression and establish a process of political liberation in other cities of the country.

Esta acción fue consecuencia del afincamiento y crecimiento de las ideas libertarias propulsadas por Eugenio Espejo influenciado a su vez de la revolución francesa y la independencia de los Estados Unidos.

That day, August 10, 1809, a group of Creoles from Quito expressed their decision to form a sovereign government. This is not, however, an isolated event. Rather, it is the consequence of a series of previous events. Events such as the revolution of the Alcabalas, that of the tobacconists, the riots of the indians against the Crown had already sown the idea of revolution in the colonies that were subject to the decisions of the Spanish crown.
Napoleon's invasion, which led to the abdication of King Charles IV in favor of his son Ferdinand VII, and the latter's cession of the throne to Napoleon I put Spain in chaos in 1808. For this fact, together of popular governments were formed throughout the Spanish kingdom to defend their king and their people. In America, which was under Spanish command, they also settled. The United States had already achieved its independence and in creole circles there was talk of the French Revolution.

August 10, 1809 was a momentous step in the independence process of present-day Latin America and Quito's legacy to future generations.

As in every day, there were firm steps and also setbacks, triumphs and defeats, but the will of the heroes exceeded their own existence and inspired the relief of those who followed them and shared the vision of the final goal: independence.

As a Nation we owe our gratitude to those who guaranteed our freedom and our daily commitment to resist any yoke that tries to take it away.

Willian Erazo Peralta - August 10, 1809: The First Cry of Independence

2021-08-13 14:56:40 UTC

August 10, 1809, the date of the First Cry of Independence, is the National Day of Ecuador. It is our National Day of the Fatherland with which the nation set an example of freedom to the world. Here is a historical review of the historian Juan J. Paz y Miño Cepeda.
During the night of August 9, 1809, a nucleus of conspiratorial intellectuals, doctors, marquises and creoles residing in the city of Quito, together with representatives of the neighborhoods, gathered at the house of Manuela Cañizares. There they decided to organize a Supreme Government Board, in which Juan Pío Montúfar, Marqués de Selva Alegre would act as President, Bishop José Cuero y Caicedo as Vice President and as Secretaries of State, in the Offices of the Interior, Grace and Justice and of Hacienda, the notable Juan de Dios Morales, Manuel Quiroga and Juan Larrea, respectively.The following morning, on August 10, Antonio Ante was in charge of presenting, before the President of the Royal Court, Manuel Urriez, Count Ruiz de Castilla, the office by which he was made known that he had ceased in his functions and that the government was assumed by the Sovereign Board of Quito. At the same time, Juan de Salinas took charge of the garrison, which immediately came out in favor of the Junta.

This August 10, 2021 marks the 212th anniversary of the beginning of the process of Independence of Ecuador. On a day like that, in 1809, the President of the Royal Audience of Quito, Manuel Urriés, count Ruiz de Castilla, was dismissed and a Sovereign Board or Supreme Government Board was installed, made up of Creoles from Quito, a name that according to the system of castes of New Spain were given to the Spanish settled in America.Several factors caused that the Creoles undertook that autonomic movement. For example, some historians pick up, the Creoles were tired of not having the same power as the European -or peninsular- whites and of the “chapetones” –also European whites of great economic power in Peru, which at that time responded to the Viceroyalty from Lima.

José Pérez Rodríguez - 10 de agosto - Primer Grito de la Independencia

2021-08-13 15:07:37 UTC

For some it was a conspiracy, for others a popular uprising, the truth is that Quito intellectuals and families formed a Sovereign Board that allowed the beginning of an independence plan. The crisis that the Spanish Crown was experiencing, caused by Napoleon's invasion of Spain, mobilized the Quito classes to confront the monarchy and achieve the desired independence for the country.

The fall of the deposed Spanish King Fernando VII, gave rise to a collective reaction of the Quito aristocracy and the so-called Quito Creoles. Antonio Ante, hero of the revolt, went to the Government House to inform the president of the Quito Court, Manuel Urriez (Count Ruiz de Castilla), that the Sovereign Board had removed him from office.

The news that a Sovereign Board was established in Quito that relieved the royal authority of positions was taken by the viceroyalties of Bogotá and Lima as an insurrectionary event, this due to the precarious communication of the time and the agitated international context. For this reason they sent troops to Quito, almost incognito, with the purpose of ending the insurrection against the Crown. in the Libertarian Act of August 10, 1809, an act in which the names and surnames of those common Creoles who will later shed their blood are inscribed. On that August 10, the libertarian junta had signed an act where Ecuador ceased to belong to the Spanish crown.

2021-08-13 19:40:46 UTC

When we think of August 10, 1809, what we learned in school comes to mind, a date full of symbolism and that was considered the First Cry of Independence of America. The passage of time and the new contributions of historiography on independence have put the date in the right place, overcoming myths and heroic narratives full of anachronism. The revolution of the Marquis or the Juntista revolution has several edges and also diverse antecedents.
The Independence Monument, also known as the Monument to the Heroes of August 10, 1809, is a commemorative column located in the city of Quito D.M. which is located in the center of the Plaza Grande, being its most important element and the one that gives its name to the Plaza. It is raised to the memory of the Quito patriots who started the struggles for independence in Ecuador. It was inaugurated in 1906 to commemorate the so-called First Spanish-American independence cry by the then president, General Eloy Alfaro Delgado. It is one of the most important icons of the Historic Center of the city and the country; as well as an important site of political concentration for being in front of the Carondelet Palace, seat of the Ecuadorian government.
