0:59Now PlayingA forgotten seperatist state known as the Republic of Iquicha came into being in Peru as result of a rebellion that lasted from 1825 to 1839. When it started the Peruvian War of Independence against Royalist forces was still going on. Unique was that its leadership was made up of a mixture of whites, mestizos, and natives. In 1833 the Iquicha played a role in the complex politics of Peru when they sided with the liberal-minded general Luis José Orbegoso in ousting the conservative president Agustín Gamarra. This gave the rebels leverage to negotiate for the creation of an independent state. They developed their own economic and political agenda by sometimes resisting and sometimes accepting the Lima-based programs of conservatives and liberals alike. The Iquicha rebels supported the Peruvian-Bolivian Confederation and fought for it, but to no avail. At the end of 1839 the Iquicha territory was incorporated in the Peruvian Republic.
