He won against Spaniards and freed south America.

Simón José Antonio de la Santísima Trinidad Bolívar Palacios y Blanco is said to be the George Washington of South America. He liberated them from Spanish power after a long hard fought war in which many times the opponent believed he had given up. In 1823, Bolívar took command of the invasion of Peru and in September arrived in Lima with Sucre to plan the attack. On 6 August 1824, Bolívar and Sucre jointly defeated the Spanish army in the Battle of Junín. On December 9 Sucre destroyed the last remnant of the Spanish army in the Battle of Ayacucho, eliminating Spain's presence in South America.

Bolivar was a super military commander, a determined man, an inspiring leader, and a political thinker. Above all he was a man of action. He swore to liberate Latin America from Spain and by force of his own personality made that happen. This was how he achieved the title, "The Liberator". His legacy is great. Many places and people were named after him. Even an American Civil War general carried his name into battle, Simon Bolivar Buckner.
