José de La Mar
José de La Mar was a prominent Peruvian military leader and politician, known for his role in the early 19th century during the wars of independence in South America. He served as the commander of the Peruvian army during the Battle of Tarqui on February 27, 1829, where his forces faced off against the troops of the Gran Colombia, led by Antonio José de Sucre. This battle was significant as it stemmed from territorial disputes after the independence of both countries, and despite his efforts, La Mar's forces were defeated, leading to the signing of the Treaty of Girón, which established the boundaries recognized prior to independence.
