what was a long - term challenge faced by newly independent latin american nations after the revolutions?
○ a lack of interest in forming economic coalitions
○ disputes over national identity and territorial boundaries
○ the inability of nations to establish any form of government
○ frequent compromises between regional leaders over political control

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option 1: Latin American nations were interested in economic cooperation (e.g., regional trade), so "lack of interest" is incorrect.
• Option 2: After independence, many Latin American countries faced disputes over national identity (e.g., defining their cultural/political identity) and territorial boundaries (e.g., border conflicts between new nations). This is a well - documented long - term challenge.
• Option 3: Nations were able to establish governments (e.g., republics, monarchies in some cases), so "inability to establish any form" is wrong.
• Option 4: Regional leaders often fought for political control (not compromised), so this is incorrect.

Answer:

B. disputes over national identity and territorial boundaries
