Treaty of Ayacucho

[2] It lasted until 1899, when an expedition led by Luis Gálvez Rodríguez de Arias established the Republic of Acre.

[1] In Acre profits in rubber drew thousands of Brazilians, largely immigrants from the poor northern coast of the country (deep semi arid of center-southern Ceará state).

In 1889, the situation escalated when the Brazilians living in Acre decided to defy the authority of Bolivia.

In July 1899, with the help of the governor of the state of Amazonas, the Brazilian population proclaimed the Republic of Acre.

Finally, it was superseded in 1903 by the Treaty of Petrópolis, which gave Acre to Brazil, in exchange for some concessions in the state of Mato Grosso.
