Congress of Panama convenes

The Congress of Panama convened in Panama City from 22 June to 15 July 1826, organized by Simón Bolívar to unify Hispanic American republics.

The congress proposed a league of republics with common military and diplomatic policies, a mutual defense pact, and plans to liberate Cuba and Puerto Rico. It did not propose a unitary state. The congress convened without Bolívar's attendance and produced no change in the hemispheric status quo.
