Colombia has experienced various invasions and conflicts throughout its history, but a significant event was the Spanish conquest in the 16th century, led by explorers like Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada, who sought to claim the territory for Spain. In the 19th century, Colombia faced invasions during the War of a Thousand Days and tensions with neighboring countries. Additionally, the country has dealt with internal conflicts, including guerrilla warfare and paramilitary groups, which can be viewed as forms of invasion by internal factions.
