The Spanish arrived there in 1499 and created the Viceroyalty of New Granada (comprising modern-day Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, the northwest region of Brazil and Panama) with its capital in Bogota. Independence from Spain was won in 1819, but by 1830 'Gran Colombia' had collapsed with the secession of Venezuela and Ecuador. What is now Colombia and Panama emerged as the Republic of New Granada. The new nation experimented with federalism as the Granadine Confederation in 1858, and then the United States of Colombia in 1863, before the Republic of Colombia was finally declared in 1886. Panama split from the union in 1903 because of the pressure from the United States over the building of the Panama Canal.

Which country colonized Panama?
The Spaniards colonized Panama in the early-to-mid 16th century and the most commonly proposed date is 1538. (The reason the date is vague is because Panama was part of the larger Spanish colony of Nueva Granada and was thus not considered individually important.) Panama was under Spanish control for roughly 300 years before choosing to join the new country of Gran Colombia with Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador in 1821. Although these other countries broke off from Gran Colombia relatively soon after, Panama remained attached to Colombia until the beginning of the 20th century. Panama finally gained full independence in 1903 with the assistance of the United States Navy.

How did bolivar become passionate about the fight for south America independence?
Simon Bolivar was from a noble family. He studied law in Madrid. After Venezuelan independence he fled to New Granada and raised an army. He made several attempts that culminated in victory at Carabobo in 1821, but it was only in 1824 that the Royalist troops were finally driven out. In 1819 Bolivar became President of Colombia (comprising Modern Venezuela. Colombia, and from 1822 Ecuador). In 1824 he joined with other rebel leaders to drive the Sanish from Peru, and made himself dictator there for a time. Upper Peru was made a separate state named Bolivia in his honour whilst he was made perpetual protector. His Constitution caused dissension and the Colombian troops were driven out. In 1828 he returned to Colombia and assumed supreme power, which caused apprehension in republican quarters and ended in Venezuela separating from Colombia. Bolivar resigned in 1830. His ideal of a federation of all Spanish speaking South American states continued to exert an influence.
