25 May - Day of the first cry of freedom in Bolivia
The Chuquisaca Revolution was a popular uprising on 25 May 1809 against the governor and intendant of Chuquisaca (today Sucre, Bolivia), Ramón García León de Pizarro. The Real Audiencia of Charcas, with support from the faculty of University of Saint Francis Xavier, deposed the governor and formed a junta. The revolution is known in Bolivia as the "First cry of freedom" (Spanish: Primer grito libertario), meaning, the first step in the Spanish American wars of independence; but historians dispute whether such a description is accurate or not.
