He led Venezuela, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador, and Peru to their independence and even briefly united them as a single nation called Gran Colombia.

José de San Martín was an Argentinian general who in the 1800s played a major role in the South American wars of independence, specifically with the liberation of Chile.San Martin did just that, securing Argentinian independence and liberating Chile and Peru from Spanish rule in part through a daring march across the Andes. Though he met with Simon Bolivar, liberator of several northern South American countries, they were unable to agree to greater cooperation.
