Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Infobox military conflict Шаблон:Campaignbox Civil wars in Peru The Iquicha War of 1839 was a brief armed conflict during and after the War of the Confederation between the United Restoration Army and indigenous peasants from Huanta who tried to defend the defeated Peru–Bolivian Confederation.

Background

On July 24, 1833, the Callao Battalion[1] and several squadrons of the Hussars of Junín regiment[2] rebelled in Ayacucho under the command of Captains Alejandro Deustua and Tomás Flores, assassinating the prefect, Colonel Juan Antonio González, and the head of the military department, Colonel Mariano Guillén, and rebelled on the side of the Iquichans.[2] On August 15 they confronted Generals Pedro Pablo Bermúdez and Miguel de San Román and the Piquisa Battalion[3] in Pultunchara. Then, on October 26, General Felipe Salaverry revolted in Cajamarca[4] but was defeated at the Garita de Moche by Juan Francisco de Vidal on November 19.[5]

For this reason, in the Peruvian Civil War of 1834, the Iquichans supported the liberal president Luis José de Orbegoso against the coup of the conservative generals Pedro Pablo Bermúdez[6] and Agustín Gamarra, a key figure in politics of the time, and an enemy of the republiqueta.[7] During his presidency, Gamarra had favored the merchants of Lima and neglected the rest of the country, especially the rural areas and their population.[8]

After defeating the revolt in the capital, Orbegoso had to face Gamarra in the southern highlands of the country seeking an alliance with the inhabitants of Huanta. The liberals mobilized an army of 4,000 Indians under the command of landowner Juan José Urbina,[9] who knew how to unify under his command Republicans and monarchists.[10] He had to face the conservatives, who mobilized four to five thousand combatants in the area.[11] In April he seized Huanta and Huamanga, and a month later the civil war ended with the victory of the Liberals.[12]

Conflict

In 1836, the Iquichianos adhered to the idea of the Peru-Bolivian Confederation seen as "the continuation of the Empire by other means",[13] for which Huachaca participated in the wars of the Confederation between 1836 and 1839. In 1838 Huachaca became Justice of the Peace and Governor of the Carhuaucra district and Supreme Chief of the Republic of Iquicha.

The Iquichans first supported the Confederation in their support of Andrés de Santa Cruz during the Salaverry-Santa Cruz War, since "he came to respond to the demands of the southern Andean groups who, since at least 1814, have defended a more decentralized country, in which they take into account the interests of the regional elites against the centralist coastal hegemonic groups."[14] In March 1839 he took up arms against the Restoration Army and put Huanta under siege to no avail.

Treaty of Yanallay

The Iquichans decide to recognize and submit to the Peruvian State. Huachaca refuses to participate in that agreement and retires to the Apurímac jungles, where he would later die in 1848.[15] By 1838, the authorities used the expression republiqueta to refer to the territories under the control of Huachaca.[16]

After the defeat of Iquicha, Huachaca changed his name to José Antonio Navala Huachaca, with José having been chosen in reference to the name of Antonio José de Sucre and his surname Navala referring to the Peruvian Navy.[17]
