Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Latin American countries have never had fully democratic systems. Several key pieces are always messing. Some are highly religious (and hence not secular), many were communist or fought civil wars over communism, many were dictatorships, some still don't have full property rights, many don't have any rule of law and hence massive corruption, etc.
