An ASB takes pity on him...
He said "from Panama to Tierra del Fuego"...just to clarify ... you want a Gran Colombia that doesn't go splat and incorperates (by conquest or mutual argeement) the Federal Republic of Central America or?
He said "from Panama to Tierra del Fuego"...
Okay: He said "the entire continent of South America"...And South American Geogaphy are fairly low on the list of my world knowlegde, which otherwise is rather good
Okay: He said "the entire continent of South America"...
What on earth do you think makes it possible?Minus Brazil.
So again how is it ASB to pull that off?

It was hard enough keeping Gran Colombia together, to say nothing of the Southern Cone.
I'm asking if it's possible and how it could happen, not asserting it was certain or even close. What would you need to pull it off in the given period or would it require something earlier?
A United Hispanic America is possible, the Spaniards actually did it after all...
One can see the viceroyalties reform into confederal entities under the Bourbons. You'll probably need to butterfly the Napoleonic invasions away to achieve this.
With a PoD starting from the 1810s... no way, José.It's of course not a practical polity to unite and keep united by force (even excluding Mexico) and I gather the revolutionaries' allegiances are mostly province-based.
