Where it sits in time
Five thousand years, 3000 BCE to 2026; the state in gold.
How it ended, as its article says
Dissolved, 1839-01-20. Read from the article's section “History - Development and dissolution” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
He was defeated in the Battle of Yungay on 20 January 1839, and thus, the Confederation was dissolved, with Gamarra announcing its dissolution on 25 August.

Rulers
Read from the state’s own English article and its rulers’ articles, where Wikidata names no ruler.
| Ruler | Reign | Length | How it ended · source | To the ruler before |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Luis José de Orbegoso | 1837 – 1838 | 1 year | ending not on record | |
| José de la Riva Agüero | 1838 – 1839 | 1 year | ending not on record |
2 rulers, 2 with terms dated as terms, covering 1837 – 1839. Only 2 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 1 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. The violent-handover count is withheld: power changed hands so often that any rising falls beside one (exposure 1.00, limit 0.6). A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
