Best Answer

"The Monument to Independence" is an English equivalent of the Spanish phrase El Monumento a la Independencia. The phrase most famously references the victory column built by architect Antonio Rivas Mercado (Saturday, February 26, 1853 to Monday, January 3, 1927) of Tepic, Jalisco, Mexico, during the Porifrio Díaz presidency (Monday, December 1, 1884 to Thursday, May 25, 1911), to commemorate the centennial of the beginning of the Mexican War of Independence (Sunday, September 16, 1810 to Thursday, September 27, 1821). The pronunciation will be "el MO-noo-MEN-to a la EEN-dey-pen-DEN-sya" in Uruguayan Spanish.
