Grandes Chilenos de Nuestra Historia (English: Great Chileans of Our History; sometimes simply called Grandes Chilenos) was a Chilean
TV program produced and broadcast by state channel
Televisión Nacional de Chile during 2008. It was based on the style of
BBC's 100 Greatest Britons. Former President
Salvador Allende was elected the "Greatest Chilean". The exclusion of some personalities, most notably founding father
Bernardo O'Higgins, caused controversy.[1]
