José Ballivián
José Ballivián , 1805-52, president of Bolivia (1841-47). An able military commander who had served in the war against Spain, Ballivián was proclaimed president after the breakup of the Peru-Bolivia confederation under Santa Cruz . At Ingavi (1841) he defeated President Gomarra of Peru, who had attempted to seize La Paz. Ballivián thus insured Bolivian autonomy. Promulgating (1841) a new constitution, he energetically but arbitrarily instituted public reforms. Intense opposition forced him to resign.
