November 1811: The "Congress of the United Provinces," meanwhile, started meeting again. Despite Cundinamarca's opposition, the Congress finally achieved an agreement and delivered the Act of Federation of the United Provinces of New Granada on November 27, 1811, which was written by Camilo Torres and signed by the deputies of five provinces.
January 1813: In 1813, Simón Bolívar captured Ocaña, a strategic city in present-day Colombia, during the Venezuelan War of Independence. This victory helped secure the route to Venezuela and furthered Bolívar's campaign against Spanish colonial rule.
February 1813: In 1813, Simón Bolívar led the United Provinces of New Granada to victory in the Battle of Cúcuta against royalist forces. This marked a significant turning point in the independence movement in South America.
February 1814: Nariño assembled his 'Army of the South,' numbering 1500 to 2000 men, and managed to capture Popayán in January 1814.
November 1811: Cartagena became the first province in New Granada to formally declare its independence from Spain on November 11, 1811.
April 1811: Under the guidance of Jorge Tadeo Lozano, the province of Santafé transformed itself into a state called the Free and Independent State of Cundinamarca.
January 1815: Nariño assembled his 'Army of the South,' numbering 1500 to 2000 men, and managed to capture Popayán in January 1814, but was then defeated by the Royalist forces in Pasto, after which he was arrested in May 1814, and then sent to the Royal prison at Cádiz. The failure of the campaign and the capture of Nariño left an enfeebled Cundinamarca, so the United Provinces took the opportunity to send an army against it, headed by Simón Bolívar, who had fled Venezuela for the second time after the fall of the Second Republic of Venezuela. Bolívar and his army forced the submission of Cundinamarca to the United Provinces by December 1814.
