Later, the newspaper was supported by then Christian democratic Juan José Santa Cruz, leader of the think tank Giro País. History After the defeat of the Christian-democratic candidate Eduardo Frei Ruíz-Tagle against Sebastián Piñera (centre-right) in 2009 Chilean presidential election, Giro País decided, through its then executive director Sebastián Iglesias, to create a medium that promotes a "culture of the opposition in the current Concertación", because Giro País would be "a center of action more than of thought and we want it to put centre and liberal ideas capable of bringing to the new opposition the modernity, which was left behind in time".

Chilean People
Chileans ( es, Chilenos) are people identified with the country of Chile, whose connection may be residential, legal, historical, ethnic, or cultural. For most Chileans, several or all of these connections exist and are collectively the source of their Chilean identity. Chile is a multilingual and multicultural society, but an overwhelming majority of Chileans have Spanish as their first language and either are Christians or have a Christian cultural background. Therefore, many Chileans do not equate their nationality with ethnicity, but with citizenship and allegiance to Chile. The overwhelming majority of Chileans are the product of varying degrees of admixture between European ethnic groups (predominantly Spaniards and Basques) with peoples indigenous to Chile's modern territory (predominantly Mapuche). Although the historic mestizaje of Europeans and Amerindians is evident across all social strata in the Chilean population, there is a strong correlation between the ratio ...
