* HeroOfAnotherStory: Coupled with VillainOfAnotherStory. Santa Cruz declared war to both Chile and Argentina, and France started a naval blockade on Buenos Aires to support him. Argentina was so busy with the French blockade (and its own ongoing civil war) that only made minor military engagements against Bolivia, and did not do plan any joint operations with Chile. It was Chile who took the full weight of the war against Santa Cruz.

Chile, instigated by [[MagnificentBastard Diego Portales]], saw the confederation as a commercial threat, and a failed expedition of former president Ramón Freire to seize power as Santa Cruz’s plan to interfere with Chile’s internal politics. But even though the war was declared, nobody in the country really cared.

'''The War of the Confederation''' (1836-1839) was an armed conflict between the Republic of Chile and the Peru-Bolivian Confederation which was fought mainly for predominance in the sea. It was fought mainly in Peru.
Before the war, Peru was involved in a civil war between north and south. Marshal Andrés de Santa Cruz, President of Bolivia, lent his support to the south and, once he north was finally conquered, he established the Republics of North Peru and South Peru. To top it all, he decided to create a confederation with the three nations, with him as Supreme Protector.
Chile, instigated by [[MagnificentBastard Diego Portales]], saw the confederation as a commercial threat, and a failed expedition of former president Ramón Freire to seize power as Santa Cruz’s plan to interfere with Chile’s internal politics. But even though the war was declared, nobody in the country really cared.
And then Portales was killed by some soldiers unhappy with his military purges and political ways. The assassination was seen as another move of Santa Cruz to throw Chile into chaos, making the war acceptable to the people.
The first expedition to the Peru was an absolute fiasco and ended with the Treaty of Paucarpata, leaving things [[StatusQuoIsGod almost the same as it started]].
Back in Chile, the failure was so scandalous that the government sent a second expedition to Peru. This one was more successful and the military defeats and growing opposition in Bolivia forced Santa Cruz to flee, ending the war and the confederation. Bolivia and Peru were two states again and Peru was unified once again.
Peru and Bolivia kept in war for some time, but that's part of another story.
