So we have a Gran Colombia, a Imperial Brasil, a Confederación Perú-Boliviana, a united virreinato de la plata por Gran argentina, Paraguay as bufer state and Chile doing his thing(probably drinking and figthing with corvos) cause they dont hace the rich mineral desert.
O boy The wars un this one are gonna be. Great, especially the brasilian-argentinian ones

I suppose. Although, to me, an "ideal" SA also includes stronger Panamericanism in Latin America (which would also include the LA in NA). At least within the Hispanic countries. Not that I wouldn't want to include Brazil in there, but also I'm not sure how feasible would it be.
So a capitanacy General of chile with all the original territories (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captaincy_General_of_Chile) (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitanía_General_de_Chile#/media/File:Location_Chile_Capitania.png)

My ideak South America:
Either make Bolivia a part of Peru or give them acces to the Sea.

Natives would be allowed to remain if they so chose, miners and ranchers would be evicted.

First of all, a general comment: "La Plata" has never been used to refer to any incarnation (for lack of a better word) of Argentina or the Viceroyalty of the Río de La Plata until EU4 came out (as far as I can tell, the point is that AFAIK, it wasn't used historically), so please don't go with that for a "super-Argentina", or try to justify the choice.
Now, with that said, any "ideal South America" for me would probably be one of these:
Remember that the light green parts are vague claims over territory that wasn't actually under Spain's control and was thus claimed by both the Viceroyalty of the Río de La Plata and the Captaincy General of Chile, so having the latter "with all the original territories" means giving away everything that's not in dark green.
Now, with that said, any "ideal South America" for me would probably be one of these:
- A federal republic incorporating most if not all Spanish American colonies and their claimed territories, probably calling itself "[describe type of state here] of America" (no, I did not miss any adjectives like "Latin" before America).
- A native civilizations wank, basically having European settlement mostly reduced to a few cities and trading posts by the coast, close to the mouth of navigable rivers, on one part and a ton of native states throughout the continent (with the obvious Super-Tahuantinsuyo running down the Andes).
- Basically OTL but with the many countries in the continent being stable like other western nations have been. Maybe keep Uruguay as an Argentine province and gib
FalklandsMalvinas, and let Bolivia keep Antofagasta and their sea access, but no border changes beyond that.
Because they declared independence and managed to hold it. Why isn't Maine part of Massachussets?
