Uruguayan political leader and general, 1764-1850, died in exile in Paraguay
Fishburn and Hughes: "A Uruguayan hero and military leader who fought against the Spaniards by offering his services to the Junta at Buenos Aires. Recruiting his troops from gauchos and outlaws, Artigas won a notable victory at Las Piedras in 1811. He championed the Federalists, who demanded greater autonomy for the Banda Oriental, against the Unitarians, who supported the centralised power of Buenos Aires. In the civil war against Buenos Aires which followed in 1815, Artigas defeated the porteño forces and drove them off Uruguayan soil. The result was an invasion by Brazil, and Artigas was eventually defeated. Fleeing to Paraguay, where he was briefly imprisoned, he was given a farm and a pensi on by President Francia and died there thirty years later. See Saavedra." (17)
