Argentine War of Independence

The Argentine War of Independence (Spanish: Guerra de Independencia de Argentina) was a secessionist civil war fought from 1810 to 1818 by Argentine patriotic forces under Manuel Belgrano, Juan José Castelli, Martin Miguel de Guemes and José de San Martín against royalist forces loyal to the Spanish crown. On July 9, 1816, an assembly met in San Miguel de Tucumán, declaring independence with provisions for a national constitution. (Wikipedia).

Maps

When searching for maps use quotation marks + map ("Argentina Independence" + map). You can also add the word 'post' to look for maps after the revolution (map post "Argentina independence"). Be sure it is a map with some attribution so that you can attribute it correctly as well - most likely you will cite it as an image in NoodleTools.
