At the end of the nineteenth century in many countries the land was subjugated to the landed estates of the patriciate. The laborers lived in poverty on the edge of survival. Despite the first attempts by some citizen movements of intellectuals and politicians to create a class consciousness among the peasants that could assert their rights against the barony, the feudal violence of the lords of the land prevented any social demands. Brigandage was born from this environment of hunger and oppression, an expression of struggle and revenge against the masters. If the discontent of the laborers had combined with the anger of the brigands, the revolt could have spread like fire in a barn. But often the victim who manages to gain power then embodies it again as the enemy he had overthrown shortly before. And, in the jungle where the strongest wins until he meets someone stronger than him, the people always lose out in the end.
