“You have to know the past in order to understand the present” – Carl Sagan, Astronomer, Writer, Scientist (1934-1996)
The intention of this site is to provide the historical trajectory of the state of Tennessee in a brief and structured style paralleled to the history of Latin America.
The focus of attention is the history of Tennessee, and although presented in a brief form, naturally with more detail than Hispanic-American history, it functions better as a point of reference.
This website may be used as a reference to students and adults interested in the story of Tennessee and/or Latin America.
