Abstract

This modest article will attempt to explain what some of the scopes of the reform in the construction of certain imaginaries of the nation were, and especially, it will attempt to describe how the reformers accomplished the task of building nationalism based on the creation of the “Pantheon of the National Heroes,” preferentially praising Francisco Morazán as the main founding father of that “Sacred Pantheon.” Moreover, according to the opinion of the author, some topics will be developed as the inheritances or fundamental legacies of the genius of Morazán for the Central American region.
