1823: The arrival of Simón Bolívar to Peru and its political implications

After the meeting between San Martín and Bolívar in Guayaquil, it was decided that the first one would abandon Peru and Bolivar would lead the last battles in the context of Peruvian independence. Sucre arrived in Lima three month before Bolívar founding that the elected president of Peru was in Trujillo, the interim president was governing in Lima and he (Sucre) was in charged of the patriotic army. Some months after his arrival and due to the recaptured of Lima by the royalists, Bolívar moved to Trujillo where he installed his government. Being in Trujillo and the northern region he planned the last battles: Junin and Ayacucho, which culminated with the signing of the capitulation between general Sucre and general Canterac and the retreat from Cuzco by viceroy La Serna, his court and royal functionaries, where he had governed for the last three years.
