New Granada


 

New Granada was the name given to a group of colonial provinces in northern South America, corresponding mainly to modern Colombia. Before the 19th century independence struggles, the Viceroyalty of New Granada existed as a political and administrative entity which also extended to include oversight over local authorities in Ecuador and Venezuela. The name is still used as an alternative to Colombia by some of its neighbors.
