The War of the Pacific (1879 – 1884) – The Epic War between Chile and Peru (and Bolivia)
The War of the Pacific, fought from 1879 to 1884, was a conflict that reshaped the political landscape of South America, involving Peru, Chile, and Bolivia. The conflict is also known as the Nitrate War, Guerra del salitre, Saltpeter War or Ten Cents War. The roots of the war can be traced to long-standing border disputes and economic tensions over resource-rich territories, particularly the nitrate-rich regions in the Atacama Desert. The conflict began in 1879 when Chilean forces, led by President Hilario Lagos, initiated hostilities by seizing the port city of Antofagasta, a region contested by Bolivia and Chile. Bolivia, already economically weakened, faced further setbacks as its access to the Pacific was cut off. Shortly after, Chile declared war on Peru, escalating the conflict. The war saw significant naval engagements, such as the Battle of Angamos in 1879, where the Chilean navy secured control over the sea, limiting Peru's ability to support its army. Land battles ensued, marked by notable clashes like the Battle of Tacna and the Battle of Arica. Bolivia, unable to regain its coastal territory, suffered a crippling blow with the loss of the Atacama Desert. Meanwhile, Peru faced defeats on multiple fronts, leading to the occupation of its capital, Lima, by Chilean forces in 1881. The conflict finally came to an end in 1884 with the signing of the Treaty of Ancón. The terms of the treaty favored Chile, as it acquired substantial territories from both Peru and Bolivia. Bolivia lost its access to the Pacific, becoming a landlocked nation, while Peru ceded the provinces of Tacna and Arica.
The War of the Pacific had lasting consequences for the involved nations. Bolivia's loss of coastal territory remains a point of contention to this day, and the conflict left scars on diplomatic relations in the region. Additionally, the war highlighted the importance of control over valuable resources, such as nitrates, which became crucial for the industrialization of the participating countries in the years that followed.

    The Ottomans never called it Palaestine. The entire empire (except Egypt) had no boundaries and,no states or provinces. The empire was arbitrarily divided into administrative areas called variously Beyliks or Valyets. The areas were created solely by the Sultan, who appointed administrators and their area of control, whenever it suited him. The administrators (Bey or Sanjak Bey if he was the equivalent of a general) were moved around regularly by the Sultan to ensure that none of them got enough local power to challenge his authority. There never was a country called Palaestine, After the destruction of the second temple the Romans controlled the Levant, today Syria, Lebanon, Jordan & Israel. A large section was called Syria Palaestina, after the ancient but extinct Philistines. The Message to Judea was clear, “Don’t cause trouble, or you are next”. The PLO/PA claim to be Palaestinians, of which they falsely claim to be descendant 6:13 . The irony is that the Philistines were not Semitic, they were sea peoples that were ethnically related to the Greeks. They were like Vikings, and caused a great deal of destruction in what is now the Gaza strip and the Egyptian Nile delta. They were chased out of the Nile Delta by Ra-Mesis III (Rameses) in 1175 BCE and suffered with the Judeans under invasions from Neo-Assyrian under Tiglath Pilesser III, then Sargon II followed by his son Sennacherib. The Philistines were finally and totally wiped out by the Babylonian Nebu-chot-nezzar (Nebuchadnezzar). After WW1, the newly formed League of Nations gave France a mandate to rule what is now Syria and Lebanon, and the British were given a mandate to J“Create a homeland for the Jewish people” that was to be from the southern border of the Syrian mandate, and from the Mediterranean & Red seas to the border of a new country created in Mesopotamia called Iraq. The British soon realized that “The League of nations territory mandated to Great Britain to prepare a homeland for the Jewish people” was a bit too long so, as an educated Britain had studied “The classics”, they resurrected the title Palaestine as an informal name for the mandated territory. Initially, the residents carried British passports over-stamped with “Palaestine”. Very soon, the British realized that they did not want the inhabitants of the middle east to be full British citizens with all the rights that came with citizenship, so they created a separate passport labelled Palaestine, even though no such country or state had never existed, even at that moment. It was Yasir Arafat that claimed that “We are not refugees, we are Palaestinians”, who he did not realize were Greeks, and the Bedouin Arabs DNA is closely related to that of the real Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula and not to the peoples of the Levant. The Israelites can be dated as resident in the Levant from well before the earliest mention known today, the Merneptah Stele in c. 1209 BCE at which time they had long been established in the Levant. In 1822 BCE They were known to the Sumerians as Apiru or Hapiru and were nomadic raiders. Another group of Semites Canaan called Hyksos who were who were dreaded as being violent when provoked, they were the Dynastic rulers (Pharaohs) of lower (Nile Delta) Egypt 1650-1550 BC until they were expelled by Pharaoh Ahmose I.

    Since the UK supported Chile and the US supported Peru this war is often considered as a proxy war between European colonialism and American imperialism. France also supported Peru since the majority of Peruvian mining industry was owned by the French, this country was the most hostile against Chile. On the other hand is the German perspective. The best example of it is the interesting message of the German ambassador to Chile, von Gülich to the Kaiser William I which explains the war of the Pacific to the German emperor: “(…) The true cause of the current war is, however, much deeper; It is the bitter envy, the living hatred that has prevailed against Chile for many years in Peru and Bolivia. Both countries, continually destroyed by revolutions and under terrible administration, envy Chile's material progress, its orderly political life, undisturbed by insurrections, its departure from the excesses between anarchy and despotism and its unimpeded ascent to a higher cultural step. (…) The great confidence that exists with the bravery of the Chilean soldier, who, without a doubt, is extraordinary (…) the Bolivian soldier is, like the Peruvian, mainly of Indian origin, very few with a mixture of European blood” (…) For the uncommitted European it is something undoubtable. All the cultured States of the world, interested in true civilization, can only wish for a definitive triumph for Chile, because it represents the interests of civilization in this war. Peru is, as far as its highest classes are concerned, sunk in corruption, which rises up against all values ​​and its total defeat gives hope of better conditions for foreigners in Peru and an improvement in the situation of the Peruvian people themselves. ”

Peru 🇵🇪 was very alone in the war. USA 🇺🇸 didn't support to Peru 🇵🇪 because they knew the real enemy of Peru 🇵🇪: British Empire 🇬🇧. In those year, British Empire 🇬🇧 had wars in China 🇨🇳, India 🇮🇳, Paraguay 🇵🇾 and other parts around the war.

Chile 🇨🇱 exists thanks to British Empire 🇬🇧 support since the beginning of the Chilean Republic.

    The peruvian army was doomed from the beginning. The Chileans started arming about a decade before the conflict in line with the "DOCTRINA PORTALES", at the same time the peruvian army was is terrible shape. When war started it was clear the what the outcome would be. The enmity between both nations is because of the hatred of the chilean leadership to Peru in that war, to put that in context: even the germans were less savage when they invaded France in WWII...The question is: Why?

Peru was also in a very dire economic situation that did not allow for foreign capital to flow while Chile had better possibilities there despite equally difficult economic standing.

Despite the setback, Captain Arturo Prat demonstrated immense heroism. He refused to surrender even though his two small ships were vastly outnumbered by the enemy's eight massive vessels. His bravery ignited a surge of patriotic leadership by example. This pivotal moment galvanized the entire Chilean nation. The country swiftly united and mobilized for war.

Not a square meter of ethnically inhabited Russian territory was requested by the central powers ! What the Russian empire lost was its colonial additions to the Russian empire there’s nothing harsh there , Russia lost Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia none of which were territories inhabited by the Russian people ! Get your history straight if you want to call yourself a historian ‼️🇱🇹🇱🇻🇪🇪🇺🇦 it was the Versailles treaty of 1919 which was absolutely harsh and showed no respect at all for self determination by way of plebiscites. Had the infamous Versailles treaty been is just as the treaty of Brest lithovsks maybe they wouldn’t of been a World War II continuation of World War I ! And I know you know that for a fact but why you don’t want to discuss that I don’t understand 😳

      I don't get your anger. From the Bolshevik perspective these were harsh terms. The former Russian empire lost territory. Whether Russians lived there or not is not relevant. It is about the perspective.

    Without a quickly defended border in the East how long before Germany was overrun after “ supposedly “ wars end. Fortunately the US had Harry Trueman who had spoken to officials from FDR’s day who had been aghast as to what he had caved in on…. And what he was about to following Yalta. It is lucky that Germany was not completely absorbed if it hadn’t been for Trueman and Earnest Beavan at Potsdam, that cobbled together the German Federal Republic, the disaster would have been total. Hopefully the US is mindful that having an elderly and infirm president can spell disaster.

    I have seen many of your videos, which I enjoy very much, but this time I must say that there are some confusions and mistakes. At the beginning of the war the Chilean army had just over 2.000 men, but had experienced officers who fought in wars against the Mapuches (that war lasted 300 years!). Chile had 2 powerful ships but Perú had one which was faster, the Huascar, and the Iquique naval combat (May 21st 1879) Chile lost one old ship, and Peru lost one of its best ships, the Independencia. Chile didn’t have dominion of the seas until the naval battle of Angamos (October 8th 1879), where Chile defeated Peru and captured Peru´s best ship, the Huascar, which was repaired and incorporated into the Chilean navy. The jump off the cliff of Colonel Alfonso Ugarte is just a myth but has no historical importance. It is important to mention that in all battles the number of soldiers fighting on each side was similar, so that no victory can be attributed to a higher number of soldiers; on the contrary, in almost all the battles the Chileans attacked, and the Peruvians / Bolivians fought in their defensive positions. The victory of Chile was due to several reasons: the organization of the war efforts, careful study and preparation of supplies, discipline and motivation of the troops (mostly volunteers), political stability (there was even a presidential election during the war).

      You provide extra information. Thanks for that. What is not accurate? I read Ugarte threw himself of the cliff. What did happen to him if he didn't jump?

      @@HistoryHustle About the myth of Alfonso Ugarte jumping off the cliff on his horse. First, it is very rare that a horse was in the defense area of the Morro, and it is impossible that a horse jumps into the void of a cliff: it simply won’t jump. Second, the battle report of the Peruvian artillery commander Manuel Espinoza, describes the moment when it was useless any resistance, and so Bolognesi ordered a cease-fire, but because that order couldn’t be heard, Colonel Ugarte went himself to give the cease-fire order, and the report says that Ugarte was killed while in that mission. Another battle report prepared by the second in command of the Peruvian defense, Manuel Camilo de la Torre, states that Ugarte and others “fell in the fight”. Ugarte’s body was later identified and it was taken to Lima, where it was buried at the Presbitero Maestro Cemetery.

      @@HistoryHustle What is not accurate is Chile didn’t have full control of the Pacific after the Naval Combat of Iquique (May 21 1879), but much later and only after the Naval Battle of Angamos (October 8 1879). There are some very interesting figures on the Chilean side: War Minister Rafael Sotomayor, he was the main organizer and strategist of the war, but died just before the battle of Tacna; General Manuel Baquedano, he commanded the Chilean Army and never lost a battle; Patricio Lynch, a former Chilean navy officer who fought in the British Royal Navy at the Opium War in China, and other wars, when he was moving from Pisco to Chilca by land to join the rest of the army, in many places he found Chinese workers living in slave conditions, so he freed them and as he spoke Mandarin, he was considered as their savior so they called him the “Red Prince”, and many Chinese joined the Chilean army in service duties, like carrying ammunition, helping the wounded, etc. Lynch fought at the Chorrillos Battle (which lasted over 9 hours) and Miraflores Battle were his performance was outstanding. He was appointed as Governor of Occupied Perú.

    Errr... Chilean troops didnt sack the city, PERUVIAN DESERTERS sacked the city after they ran from battle to the point British, French and US marines had to be landed to restore order, and THEN Rufino Torrico the Mayor of Lima REQUESTED that the Chilean army enter the city to prevent further mischief.

      @@HistoryHustle No, the Chilean army entered the city a full three days after the battle of Miraflores, in march formation, bands playing ahead of its regiments. They didnt sack the city, they didnt plunder like the Peruvian deserters that sacked businesses, mainly Chinese-owned, and murdered their occupants until the deserters were killed or driven off by the foreign marines. Of course, during the three year occupation, there were instances of Chilean soldiers stealing and robbing the locals, happens in every occupation, but that is a very far cry from taking, sacking and plundering a city hot after a battle. You have to be careful with Peruvian sources, they are full of fairy tales.
