Viceroyalty of New Granada
In 1717 the Viceroyalty of New Granada was created in northern Peru, from the "Audiencias" of Bogotá, Quito and Panamá. However this establishment lasted only until 1724, when the territories were returned to the Viceroyalty of Peru. (The Viceroyalty of New Grenada was reestablished on a more permanent basis in 1734.)
