1830, Republic of Ecuador is founded


 

Ecuador is a country straddling the equator on South America's west coast.

Ecuador's early history as a country was a tormented one. For some eight years it formed, together with what are now the countries of Panama, Colombia, and Venezuela, the confederation of Gran Colombia. But on May 13, 1830, after a period of protracted rivalries, Ecuador seceded and became a separate independent republic, with Juan Jose Flores aa president.
