The Rafael Carrera state whose conservative indigenous and mestizo uprising against liberal Federation reforms made Guatemala the first Central American nation to break from the Federal Republic.
State of Guatemala from 1838 to 1843 — the turbulent secession period in which Guatemala broke from the Federal Republic of Central America under the leadership of Rafael Carrera, an illiterate mestizo pig farmer turned military commander whose conservative coalition of indigenous highland communities, Catholic clergy, and landed elites overthrew the liberal Federation government. Carrera's revolt was driven by indigenous resistance to liberal land reforms, forced military conscription, and the cholera epidemic that devastated highland Maya communities — grievances that Carrera channeled into a conservative movement that would dominate Guatemalan politics for decades. This interactive sweatshirt connects you to that Carrera highland revolt and State of Guatemala independence heritage legacy with a QR code linking to the full story.
