What is New Granada?
'''New Granada''' was a large region in northern [[South America]] controlled by the [[Spanish Empire]] up until a rebellion led by [[Simón Bolívar]] successfully declared independence in 1819. After independence, New Granada reformed itself into [[:en:Gran_Colombia|Gran Colombia]]. [[Gran Colombia]] eventually collapsed in 1831 into the countries of Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela (and later Panama, from Colombia).
