This use of community land was a common practice during the time of Aztec rule in Mexico. It was not until the colonization of Mexico by the Spanish and other European settlers that this practice seemed to disappear and be replaced by the encomienda system. The encomienda system was abolished by the Constitution of 1917, with the promise of restoring the ejido system. This, however, did not happen until L?zaro C?rdenas became president in 1934. The purpose of restoring the ejido system was to give land back to the people and provide more food for the community. Under the ejido system, the land is owned by the government and is supported by a national bank. This bank pays for the equipment and goods necessary for the upkeep of the land. In essence, the bank has only just replaced the encomendero; however, the community member who works on the land gets paid for his or her work. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.) Venezuela was one of three countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Colombia and Ecuador). For most of the first half of the 20th century, Venezuela was ruled by generally benevolent military strongmen, who promoted the oil industry and allowed for some social reforms. Democratically elected governments have held sway since 1959. Current concerns include: an embattled president, a divided military, drug-related conflicts along the Colombian border, increasing internal drug consumption, overdependence on the petroleum industry with its price fluctuations, and irresponsible mining operations that are endangering the rain forest and indigenous peoples..
