History

The 2nd Army Division was created on 15 December 1961 in Lima as 2nd Military Region.[1] For several years it shared its headquarters with the premises of the Ministry of War.[1]

In 1975, what started as a police strike soon became a riot across the entirety of Lima, in what would later be known as the Limazo. After members of the Civil Guard barricaded themselves in their Radio Patrulla barracks, the 2nd Division was ordered to remove them by force, which was done on the same day.[2][3]

In 1987, it was installed in the Rafael Hoyos Rubio Military Fort, located at Rímac District, province of Lima.[1] In 2003, it was renamed as the Central Military Region (Шаблон:Lang-es),[4] name it would bear until 2012.[1]

Its coat of arms features the division's motto in quechua, as well as a condor and an emblem featuring Incan weapons.[5]
