Argentine Civil Wars

1814 CE – 1880 CE · 66 years

Decades of conflict between Buenos Aires centralists (Unitarians) and provincial federalists tore Argentina apart. Caudillo Juan Manuel de Rosas dominated as dictator from 1835–1852 before his overthrow at Caseros. The wars ended only when Buenos Aires was federalized in 1880.
