Simón Bolívar (1783–1830), known as "El Libertador," is most commonly called the "George Washington of South America." He led independence movements that freed present-day Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia from Spanish rule and helped shape the region’s early republics. (In some contexts José de San Martín is also compared to Washington, especially in the southern cone.)
