What exactly went wrong for this continent...

The eternal american messed with our politics and supported shitty dictators that ruined us.

Ignorance
Corruption
Populism

Leftists, they ruined everything

>Just 100 years ago most of them had similar if not better living standards than European countries or the US
literally only argentina

CIA, Cuba and commies happened, 1 and 3 ruined us for the rest of our existence

>Just 100 years ago most of them had similar if not better living standards than European countries or the US
not really, only Agentina was better, and maybe some other spots in Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, and the reason is because Latin-America had a commodity boom before industrialization in the early 20th century, then (to answer your question) they didn't "catch up" (like Australia and New Zealand) with the First World because of lack of quality human capital

They abandoned their Iberian overlords and as such, God has punished them for their audacity. For the Iberian is blessed by God and the Universe, such is his birthright.

Venezuela was the only exporter o Quinine (malaria medicine). Unfortunately they manage to ruin everything. Now not even the largest oil deposits can buy toilet paper.
I hope they get better, like Colombia did.

South America was never that good or had a solidly grounded middle class and historically most major natural resources were owned and mined for the benefit of American and European companies.

The truth is, we suck at democracy. We keep changing from libtards who spread the country legs to estate who deal with the country economy as it was they personal piggy bank.
If we got the German/Japan treatment of after war (literally being ruled as puppets) we would be better...

Try on what?

As a country with a colonial past, that frequently feels like will erupt in civil war. Is good to have Israel as a (((ally))). They supported Rhodesia, South Africa and Portuguese Angola until the last bullet.

Didn't know about the malaria medicine, but I'm pretty sure the reason we were that high during those times was due to the petroleum industry.
In 1950 to 1960 we kinda had a fascist dictator who is, probably, the only good president we've ever had. And the only guy who actually wanted to make Venezuela a military power so that we could stop being just a backyard. But then again, during that era, America was kind of an asshole and didn't want people stirring shit in the backyard so they sent some commie proxies our way and fucked our shit up.
It's all downhill from there

>during those times was due to the petroleum industry.
Exactly, and that combined with the fact that at that time your population was not that large. if was then when you were starting to receive immigration
