Coro, Maracaibo and Guayana no solidarity with the seven provinces from April 19, 1810, initiated the actions in the quest for autonomy, then the longed-freedom non-existent. Among Coro and Caracas was a covert rivalry from the move of the bishopric in 1637, antagonism that served the royalist authorities use the region as a permanent Caquetíos ally. Since 1820 the Libertador interested in the release and support of Corians, from his headquarters in Escuque installed a proclamation issued on 21 October of that year: "Coriano: Liberation Army will occupy your territory. Do not be afraid, because he does not come to destroy or to avenge, he comes to restore the reign of peace. Your efforts on behalf of the king's cause, have been unfortunate for the country, and unfortunate for you and with them have not done more to prolong the miseries of war and your own. The fruit is bitter injustice for all. The Republic of Colombia will welcome you under the protection of its laws charities. The English Constitution distinctions between the brothers with hateful and tyrannical ours unites all brothers and restore equality of nature. That a reward for your services you exclude national sovereignty, and we will give citizens the lofty titles, although you have been our most cruel enemies. But since the time of the enemies there, look to your compatriots and comrades in arms, gloriously built to his bereaved and depressed country. Imitate Colonel Vargas, Torralba commander, Lieutenant Colonel Smith and his entire bodies of the English army who have been reunited with their brothers in Colombia. abandon those flags of curse that the justice of heaven has abandoned the terror of your arms, and tell that you will be taken among the most distinguished citizens of the Republic. Rely on the forgetfulness of the past, and the heart of your fraternal brothers of the liberating army. " On January 28, 1821 Maracaibo joined the Republican cause, an aspect considered by the royalist leader Miguel de la Torre y Pando as a violation of the Treaties of Trujillo signed on November 27, 1820. Heroin Josefa Camejo (1791-1862) liberated the peninsula Paraguaná the May 3, 1821, his uncle Monsignor Mariano Talavera and Garcés (1777-1861) and a group of notables waited Urdaneta (1788-1845) 9 Mitar May to report the success of Joseph and the hasty exit of the royalists to Puerto Cabello, Puerto Cumarebo embarking on. Urdaneta from the farmhouse on 10 Cujima issued a proclamation to his troops:
"Soldiers: The town of Coro you are going to occupy, is one of those forming the Department of Venezuela in the Gran Colombia. This town has faithfully served the agents of tyranny, has just been evacuated leaving to the discretion of our weapons, and English leaders as a reward for their important services have set the seal on the anxieties of the Corians, leaving the deposit mined gunpowder explosion in its ruined buildings and buried innocent. ... Soldiers of robbery and every kind of abuse to the neighbors you is strictly prohibited. None of the individuals in the division under my command, has the power to take anything foreign. Who does it, in violation of this section and the army generals sides, shall be punished with death penalty. The day 11 at eleven o'clock enter Mariana the City, dedicated to organizing the administrative appointing Colonel Juan Escalona (1768-1833) Governor of the province and prepare a battalion that accompany Corians San Carlos, pursuant to the merger of the army to participate in Carabobo . Urdaneta reached Carora, unable to continue the march for health problems. The Liberator in its headquarters located in San Carlos wrote on June 6, 1821 a message to the people of Chorus: "Coriano is a satisfaction to the Republic of Colombia to call your children. Your conduct in this last period is consistent with what you should made your zeal and courage, and I promise that in future you will be the most loyal Republicans.
