GHOTME, Rafat. THE BRITISH PROTECTORATE IN THE MOSQUITIA COAST, 1837-1849. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2012, vol.7, n.1, pp.45-74. ISSN 1909-3063.

The resumption of the British Protectorate in Mosquitia, has been normally related with imperialist considerations, and, in parallel, to the possession of a zone where it was planned to build an inter-oceanic channel through Nicaragua. In reality, these thesis pose serious difficulties to understand the origin and evolution of the Mosquitia issue, as they disregard, a priori, other types of factors that, among other things, end up undermining the imperialistic vision; a number of historic and civilization related factors, without doubt, but also strategic and commercial, made Great Britain to revive the practice of the Mosquitia Protectorate.
