Read the excerpt from simón bolívar’s letter, “reply of a south american to a gentleman of this island.” in which portion of the text does he declare his homeland’s independence from colonial rule? success will crown our efforts, because the destiny of america has been irrevocably decided; the tie that bound her to spain has been severed. only a concept maintained that tie and kept the parts of that immense monarchy together". that which formerly bound them now divides them. the hatred that the peninsula has inspired in us is greater than the ocean between us. it would be easier to have the two continents meet than to reconcile the spirits of the two countries. kept the parts of that immense monarchy together the tie that bound her to spain has been severed. inspired in us is greater than the ocean between us those are the three this is also for plato

The correct answer is "the tie that bound her to Spain has been severed". The "tie" refers to the colonial rule and "her" refers to America. To put in other words, Bolívar says in that sentence that the colonial rule of Spain over America is over.

With "kept the parts of that immense monarchy together", Bolívar is refering that only the concept of colonialism held the Spanish Empire together, but no one on the American continent felt bounded with the Spanish mainland.

The sentence "inspired in us is greater than the ocean between us" refers to the fact that America and Spain are so far from each other (there is literally an ocean between them), so there is little connection between the two. In this sentence he also says that the hate of the Spanish towards the Americans is bigger than the ocean between Spain and America.
