"By 1824 the liberation of South America from Spanish rule was nearly complete. The last remaining seat of Spanish power was in Peru."
"The final battle was fought on December 9 at Ayacucho. Shouting 'Paso de vencedores'(onward to victory). General Cordoba led the right wing of the rebel army in the attack that finally broke the back of the royalist army. This decisive battle marked the end of Spanish colonial rule in South America."
