Evidence (2021-07-12): Theoretical presentations were held at the Local Council Hall and practices took place in the northern corner of the department of Artigas, the triple border area which borders Brazil and Argentina, 7 km away from Bella Unión. [...] "It happened in 2007. Everything started then because the area we wanted to protect and preserve was created through that project. Rincón de Franquía is mainly fiscal land, so we suggested to the Departmental Government and the Local Council that we could manage the area and carry out all the activities jointly. SGP and UNDP support was substantial for such management, as we were a recently formed group with little experience; we were just starting. The Departmental Government decided to give us support and accepted to co-manage the area. An honorary management committee was created and action was taken as of that moment. [...] 14 years have passed since Artigas Departmental Government and GruPAmA signed the agreement to co-manage the area. Since 2013, the project has received support from the Ministry of Tourism to develop ecotourism options. The area has become part of the Corredor de los Pájaros Pintados ecological corridor. At present, the group focuses on biodiversity preservation and restoration in the area.

Evidence (2024-10-09): Although it is a well-watered land, no large rivers flow entirely within Uruguay. The Uruguay River and the estuary of the Río de la Plata, along the western border of the nation, are navigable for oceangoing ships until Paysandú and for smaller vessels above that point to the falls at Salto. The smaller Negro River, which traverses the country from northeast to southwest, is navigable only in its lower part, below Rincón del Bonete Lake (the Río Negro Reservoir). Among other small rivers are the Santa Lucía, Cebollatí, and Queguay Grande. Merín (Mirim) Lagoon, which lies mainly within Brazil, is the largest natural lake.

Evidence (2018-04-04): - Brazil – Uruguay: El Rincón de Artigas is a territory in the shape of a triangle located in the south of Brazil and which Uruguay argues forms part of the northern department of Artigas. The extension of the land is 237 km2. The Uruguayans maintain that due to an error of delimitation in the 19th century, the territory remained in the hands of Brazil; however, the claim does not have a legal process, so Brazil does not recognize Uruguay’s claims.

Evidence (2024-04-03): La CIJ confirmó la soberanía colombiana sobre los islotes e islas en 2012, pero redujo la extensión del mar colombiano, algo que bloqueó la resolución del conflicto. Una nueva resolución de la Corte publicada el pasado 2023 en favor de Colombia, y que Nicaragua no ha rechazado, podría zanjar la disputa de una vez por todas. ¿Cuáles son las colonias que todavía quedan en el mundo? Por su parte, el golfo de Fonseca, compartido entre Nicaragua, Honduras y El Salvador, alberga la isla Conejo, que fue ocupada por Honduras en los años ochenta mientras El Salvador estaba en guerra. El islote sigue siendo objeto de tensiones y el Gobierno salvadoreño sigue reclamándolo. Si bien es de carácter residual, entre Brasil y Uruguay también existe una disputa territorial, la del rincón de Artigas, que es una reclamación por disconformidad con el trazado fronterizo entre los dos países. Esta se suma a la reclamación uruguaya de la isla Brasilera, en la zona de la triple frontera. _______________ *En una primera versión de este mapa, la isla de Aves aparece como un territorio en disputa entre Venezuela y Dominica.

Evidence (2018-03-20): However, the treaty did not explicitly state the ownership of a small section near Masoller known as Rincon de Artigas, whose sovereignty has been challenged by the two countries. Currently, the controversial portion is under the administration of Brazil. Argentina is one of the two countries that border Uruguay and is situated west of the country. The two countries share a long land border, which stretches about 360 miles in length, making it the shortest of Uruguay’s international borders. The tri-point connecting Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil represent the start of the border, from where it follows the Uruguay River until it meets the confluence of the Rio de la Plata and River Parana. Buenos Aires, Corrientes, and Entre Rios are the three provinces in Argentina touched by the border, while in Uruguay the border touches six departments, which are the Rio Negro, Artigas, Colonia, Paysandu, Soriano, and Salto. The border has always been defined by the Uruguay River, and predates the establishment of the Republic of Uruguay, as it separates the Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata of the Eastern Band. The two countries have clashed in the past over a territorial dispute concerning the building on the Uruguay River of pulp mills. The issue strained diplomatic relations between the two bordering countries and threatened to sever the long-standing socioeconomic corporation between the two countries.

Evidence (2022-01-28): In the 1810s, some of the elites of the territory located on the eastern bank of the Uruguay River joined the uprising that had begun in Buenos Aires. This support for the Buenos Aires junta—the outcome of demands for the expansion of jurisdiction and greater autonomy—divided the territory between the administration of Montevideo (until 1814 in the hands of Españolistas) and a revolutionary group. In this context, a radical popular revolutionary project was produced under the leadership of José Artigas (1764–1850). This sought a federal union with other provinces along the Uruguay River and became known as the System of Free Peoples. It encountered fierce resistance from the authorities in Buenos Aires. The radicalization of certain postures among the "Orientales" (as the people in what is now Uruguay were called) was rejected by the Creole elites, who abandoned the Artiguista group and imposed restraints on the social revolution. Added to this were the occupation of the territory by Luso-Brazilian forces (who had strong local support) and the transformation of the Oriental Province into the Cisplatin Province, since 1821 part of the Portuguese Empire.

Evidence (2024-07-25): Uruguayan-Brazilian border dispute [edit]A longstanding border dispute involving territory in the vicinity of Masoller exists between Uruguay and Brazil, although this has not harmed close diplomatic and economic relations between the two countries; Brazil and Uruguay have not actively asserted overt measures to reinforce their respective claims to the area such as by sending troops to the vicinity. The disputed area is called Rincón de Artigas (Portuguese: Rincão de Artigas), and the dispute arises from the fact that the treaty that delimited the Brazil-Uruguay border in 1851 determined that the border in that area would be a creek called Arroyo de la Invernada (Portuguese: Arroio da Invernada), but the two countries disagree on which actual stream is the so-named one.[1] So far, Rincão de Artigas is effectively under Brazilian control. The village of Masoller itself is in undisputed Uruguayan territory, just a few hundred metres from the largely unmarked and unimpeded de facto international border.[2]

Claim: Rincón de Artigas is a territory of Brazil (Rincón de Artigas, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2021-05-27): Existen dos territorios en disputa a lo largo de la frontera entre Brasil y Uruguay. Estos son la Isla Brasilera y el Rincón de Artigas. En la práctica, ambos se encuentran bajo dominio brasileño, aunque los uruguayos mantienen sobre ellos una reivindicación de soberanía desde las décadas de los años 30-40 del siglo XX. [...] El segundo territorio en disputa entre Brasil y Uruguay se encuentra unos 100 kilómetros al este de Isla Brasilera, remontando el curso del río Cuareim. Se trata de un área de 237 km² conocido como Rincón de Artigas. Este terroitorio forma una especie de triángulo marcado cuyas lados son dos arroyos (Maeco y La Invernada) que convergen en la desembocadura en aguas del Cuareim y la línea orográfica de la Cuchilla de Haedo, también conocida como Cuchilla Negra. Como Isla Brasilera, el Rincón de Artigas se encuentra en la actualidad bajo dominio de Brasil. La reivindicación uruguaya sostiene que en el año 1856 se produjo un error de demarcación en la línea fronteriza entre ambos países. En 1934 se solicitó la devolución formal del territorio, a la que las autoridades brasileñas no han responddo hasta hoy.
Claim: Rincón de Artigas is a territory of Brazil (Rincón de Artigas, 2024-10-09)
Evidence (2024-07-21): In 1816, the United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and the Algarves carried out an invasion of the Banda Oriental and, after defeating the local resistance led by José Gervasio Artigas, annexed it under the name of Cisplatina. After Brazil's independence in 1822, Cisplatina remained as part of Brazil. Wishing to gain control of the region, the United Provinces sent a diplomatic mission to Brazil in 1823 to negotiate a peaceful Brazilian withdrawal, but it failed. In 1825, a group of patriots known as the Thirty-Three Orientals, supported by the Argentine government and led by Juan Antonio Lavalleja, launched a rebellion against Brazil. On 25 August of that year, in the Congress of Florida, they declared Cisplatina's independence from Brazil and its unification with the United Provinces. After a series of initial skirmishes, they defeated the Brazilians at the battles of Rincón and Sarandí, prompting the Argentine Congress to proclaim Cisplatina reintegrated into the United Provinces on 25 October. In response, Brazil declared war on the United Provinces on 10 December 1825 and imposed a naval blockade on the River Plate.

Evidence (2024-07-03): Annexation and independence [edit]In 1811, José Gervasio Artigas, who became Uruguay's national hero, launched a successful revolt against Spain, defeating Spanish forces on May 18 in the Battle of Las Piedras. He then liberated Montevideo from the centralizing control of Buenos Aires, and in 1815 declared the Liga Federal. In August 1816, forces from Brazil invaded the Banda Oriental (present-day Uruguay) with the intention of destroying the Liga Federal. The Brazilian forces, thanks to their numerical and material superiority, occupied Montevideo on January 20, 1817, and after struggling for three years in the countryside, defeated Artigas in the Battle of Tacuarembó. [...] Border disputes [edit]A longstanding border dispute involving territory in the vicinity of Masoller exists between Uruguay and Brazil, although this has not harmed close diplomatic and economic relations between the two countries. The disputed area is called Rincón de Artigas/Rincão de Artigas Location -31.00, -55.95), and the dispute arises from the fact that the treaty that delimited the Brazil-Uruguay border in 1861 determined that the border in that area would be a creek called Arroio da Invernada, but the two countries disagree on which actual stream is the so-named one.[11]

Evidence (2024-10-07): El Rincón de Artigas (en portugués, Rincão de Artigas) es un territorio de 237 km² ubicado al norte de Uruguay y al sur del Brasil, dentro del municipio de Santana do Livramento en el estado de Río Grande del Sur. [...] Historia [editar]El Rincón de Artigas recibió su nombre debido a que durante el tiempo de permanencia de José Artigas en el campamento de Purificación del Hervidero lo utilizó para invernar ganado, de allí el nombre del arroyo de la Invernada. Hasta 1861 estuvo en posesión uruguaya. [...] El 4 de septiembre de 1857 se firmó el Tratado de Permuta, por el cual se pensaba realizar un intercambio de territorios. Pasaría al Brasil la zona de la actual ciudad de Rivera hasta el arroyo Cuñapirú, poblada por brasileños, a cambio de un área de similar tamaño que era el Rincón de Maneco. El 1 de febrero de 1861 la legación brasileña en Montevideo cursó una nota al Gobierno uruguayo proponiéndole mantener el status quo predemarcatorio hasta la aprobación del Tratado de Permuta, para los territorios del Rincón de Artigas, hasta entonces administrado por el Uruguay, y las áreas de Santana do Livramento que Brasil debía ceder al Uruguay. Entre febrero y mayo de 1861 el Congreso del Uruguay no ratificó el tratado y quedó anulado, por lo que el Gobierno uruguayo respondió la nota brasileña el 8 de mayo de 1861 señalando que ordenaría que no se ponga embarazo alguno a la ocupación del Rincón de Artigas por parte del Brasil, quedando este país en posesión del territorio.

Evidence (2024-09-26): Artigas Department (Spanish: Departamento de Artigas, Spanish pronunciation: [aɾˈtiɣas]) is the northernmost department of Uruguay, located in its northwestern region. Its capital is the city of Artigas, which borders on the Brazilian city of Quaraí. Artigas Department has an area of 11,928 square kilometres (4,605 sq mi), making it the fifth largest in the country. The population is 73,378 inhabitants, according to the 2011 census. [...] Its capital Artigas comes at the end of the "Guerra Grande" in order to consolidate the borders with Brazil, with the name of San Eugenio del Cuareim. It was founded on September 12, 1852 by Don Carlos Catala, choosing as the best site located on the banks of the Cuareim River opposite the Villa San Juan Bautista on the other side of the river, which was a military settlement that was then transformed into what is today the city of Quaraí.

Evidence (2023-10-12): O Rincão de Artigas (em espanhol: Rincón de Artigas) é um território de 237 km² localizado entre o norte do Uruguai e ao sul do Brasil, dentro do município de Sant'Ana do Livramento, estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A República Oriental do Uruguai considera que, por um erro na demarcação do limite entre ambos os países em 1856, esse território passou a integrar território brasileiro em 1861. Desde 1934, o governo uruguaio solicita ao Brasil a revisão da demarcação fronteiriça neste ponto. Desde 1974, os mapas uruguaios indicam este território como "limite contestado" e consideram que pertence ao Departamento de Artigas. [...] A nota foi respondida pelo Governo do Brasil em 26 de outubro, indicando que as tarefas de caracterização estavam sendo realizadas e não a demarcação do limite, o Brasil não admitiu qualquer tentativa de corrigi-la. Em 1937, 1938 e 1941, o Uruguai novamente pediu ao Brasil uma determinação científica sobre o assunto. Em 1974, o governo uruguaio estabeleceu por decreto que os mapas oficiais indicam como "limite restrito" a área de Rincón de Artigas entre o quadro intermediário N ° 941 e o quadro N ° 49.
