Domingo Santa María
Domingo Santa María , 1825-89, Chilean historian and statesman, president of Chile (1881-86). A liberal statesman, scholar, and author of several historical works, he took part in revolutions against the conservative regime of Manuel Montt and was twice exiled (1852-53, 1859-60). In his administration the separation of church and state was fostered, the War of the Pacific brought to a successful end, and the last serious uprising of Araucanians suppressed.
