How does a nation with a rich cultural legacy and vibrant communities grapple with decades of relentless conflict? Today, we unravel the intricate layers of Colombia's civil strife, starting with the Colombian armed conflict that has been raging since 1964. This episode of Double Helix: Blueprint of Nations will guide you through a labyrinth of guerrillas, paramilitaries, drug traffickers, and international stakes, uncovering the profound effects of a conflict that has claimed over 220,000 lives and displaced millions.
Journey back with us to the early 19th century, where the seeds of Colombia's political factionalism were sown. From the clash between Federalists and Centralists in the Republic of New Granada to the transformation of these factions into the enduring Liberal and Conservative parties, we explore how relentless ideological battles over centralization, secularization, and modernization ignited civil wars like the War of the Supremes and the War of a Thousand Days. These conflicts not only shaped Colombia’s political landscape but also deepened social and economic inequalities, paving the way for future unrest.
We then spotlight pivotal events that underscored Colombia’s stark urban-rural divide, such as the Banana Massacre of 1928 and the assassination of Jorge Eliazer Gaitan, leading to the infamous Bogotazo. These moments of turmoil and violence etched scars into Colombia's history, revealing the resilience of its people in their quest for justice and progress. Join us as we trace the historical roots and enduring legacy of a nation striving to rise above its tumultuous past.
