Officially known as the Republic of Colombia, Colombia is a beautiful nation located in the northwestern part of South America. It was named after the prominent pioneer Christopher Columbus. To understand better, here’s a brief history of Colombia that you need to know prior to visiting or finding love in the said country and marrying a Colombiana.

Colombia has a rich history which is worthy enough to be known worldwide. It was inhabited by indigenous people many years ago. It was in 1499 when the Spaniards set their first conquest in the beautiful land. The Spaniards called the land as the “New Kingdom of Granada” and soon renamed “Santa Fe de Bogota” as its capital city.

The Spaniards explored the region in 1500 and began colonizing Colombia soon after Santa Marta was founded in 1525. It was followed by Cartagena in 1533, the New City of Granada in 1535, and Cali in 1536. Due to the importation of slaves from Africa which brought European diseases like smallpox, the indigenous people slowly decreased in number.

The Spaniards’ colonization lasted from 1525 to 1808. The Spanish actually tried to reconquer the area in 1815-1816, but Simon Bolivar defeated them at the battle of Boyaca. Although pro-Spanish resistance continued until 1822, Colombia gained independence in 1819. A new nation, then, was formed consisting of Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, and Ecuador. It was called the Republic of Colombia.

Though unstable, the Republic of Colombia was created with a constitution adopted in 1821 by which Simon Bolivar was elected as the very first president. But due to regional differences, the new nation was broken up. Simon Bolivar became a dictator in 1828, but unexpectedly, he resigned in 1930 leaving Colombia and Panama being separated from Ecuador and Venezuela.

After then, eight civil wars took place in Colombia in the 19th century, making it a troubled country. By 1849, two political parties arose. The first party is conservative which represented the landowners and the Catholic church. The other one is the liberal, which represented the merchants and the craftsmen. Because of such parties, political instability continued until the late 19th century. In 1899, a horrifying war happened. It was a battle called the War of a Thousand Days. After the war, Panama broke away from Colombia and started to become an independent nation.

In the early 21st century, Colombia became a peaceful and developing country. Exports of products such as coffee started to increase. The situation in Colombia has improved a lot. Its economy grew rapidly. Poverty and unemployment also declined. Just like the rest of the world, Colombia is gaining popularity due to its rich history, culture and traditions, and tourists spots, making it the second most diverse country in the whole world.
