List of governors of Tucumán

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Donations from Charles V in South America

The governor of Tucumán, Juríes and Diaguitas ruled the Spanish province (also: Gouvernement, Spanish: Gobernación ), which existed in the northwest of what is now the Republic of Argentina .

First, the area under the donations of King was Charles V in the areas of Neutoledo and New Andalusia . The boundaries of these areas were drawn abstractly regardless of natural spaces and formed sections of 200 miles in a north-south direction from the Atlantic to the Pacific. With the first permanent settlement and the establishment of the Gobernación de Nueva Extremadura (later renamed General Capitanate Chile ) the administration of the Spanish possessions was organized.

The Tucumán region around 1600

In 1543, the Viceroyalty of Peru was established to govern the South American colonies on site. Viceroy Pedro de la Gasca appointed Juan Núñez de Prado, the first governor of the province , in 1549 . In 1563 the Real Audiencia of Charcas was founded , which was also responsible for the area of ​​Tucumán.

In 1663 Tucumán was briefly subordinated to the first Real Audiencia of Buenos Aires ; after its dissolution in 1671, the governors reported back to Charcas . In 1776 the Spaniards founded their own viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata , which also included Tucumán. With the administrative reforms of 1782, the rule of the governors of Tucumán ended when the province was converted into an Intendencia of the Viceroyalty.
