Platine Wars

The Platine Wars is a term used by Brazilian historiography to refer to a series of diplomatic and military conflicts along the 19th century between the Empire of Brazil and neighbouring countries in the Río de la Plata Basin.[1]
These conflicts began in 1816, due to the intention of Prince Regent John of annexing the Banda Oriental (modern-day Uruguay) and pushing the Brazilian border to the left bank of the River Plate estuary.
The most notable wars in this period include:
- Luso-Brazilian conquest of the Banda Oriental - 1816–1820
- Cisplatine War - 1825–1828
- Uruguayan Civil War - 1839–1851
- Platine War - 1851–1852
- Uruguayan War - 1864–1865
- Paraguayan War - 1864–1870
