**Simón José Antonio de la Santísima Trinidad Bolívar y Palacios Ponte-Andrade y Blanco**, generally known as **Simón Bolívar** and also colloquially as *El Libertador* (The Liberator) is a Venezuelan military and political leader who led multiple Latin American to independence during the 19th century, and later on being revived to lead Venezuela and later on the URSAL.

Bolívar was born in Caracas to a wealthy aristocratic Criollo family and was educated in Europe, where he was introduced to the ideas of the Enlightenment, which motivated him to overthrow the Spanish imperial rule in Latin America. Bolívar took advantage of the chaos in Spain during the Peninsular War and he began his campaign for independence in 1808. The campaign for the independence of New Grenada was consolidated in 1819, and he established a national congress. An unprecedented Spanish expeditionary force arrived in 1821, but Bolívar's victory over it created a sense of patriotism and practically made Venezuela an independent country as *Gran Colombia,* which encompassed Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, parts of Guyana, parts of Brazil, and parts of Peru.

Following his triumph to the Spanish monarchy, Bolívar participated in the foundation of the independent state of Gran Colombia in Latin America, which he lead from 1819 to 1830. Through further military campaigns, he ousted Spanish rulers from Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, the last of which was named after him. He was simultaneously president of Gran Colombia (present-day Venezuela, Colombia, Panama and Ecuador), Peru, and Bolivia, but soon after, his second-in-command, Antonio José de Sucre, was appointed president of Bolivia. Bolívar aimed at a strong and united Spanish America able to cope not only with the threats emanating from Spain and the European Holy Alliance but also with the emerging power of the United States. At the peak of his power, Bolívar ruled over a vast territory from the Argentine border to the Caribbean Sea.

Bolívar died in 1830 and was seen as a national icon for centuries in Latin America. He was considered one of the great heroes of the Hispanic independence movements in the 19th century. Towards the end of his first life, Bolívar despaired of the situation in his native region, with the famous quote "all who served the revolution have plowed the sea" In an address to the Constituent Congress of the Republic of Colombia, Bolívar stated: "*Fellow citizens! I blush to say this: Independence is the only benefit we have acquired, to the detriment of all the rest.*"

During the HEF Revival Program, Nicolás Maduro Jr., back-then President of Venezuela, displayed interest in reviving Bolívar. Bolivar's revival was made public in July 24, 2092, Bolivar's 309th birth anniversary. Due to Bolívar's triumphant return to Venezuela and his status as a national icon, just 1 month after his revival, he became leader of the PSUV party after Maduro Jr. stepped down due to low approval ratings. Bolívar won the Venezuelan presidential elections, 2092 with 99,99% of the vote, re-igniting hope for Socialism and the Bolivarian Revolution's effects in Venezuela. During his term as president of Venezuela, the country's economical expansion was big, and stability was at an all time high. He dealt with the Sendero Luminoso and Frente Patriótico Manuel Rodríguez insurgencies, eventually neutralizing Presidente Gonzalo and capturing Raúl Pellegrin.

Bolívar was instrumental in the creation of URSAL and negotiated with Augusto Pinochet and other various Latin American leaders to create the union. Bolívar has been president of the union for all of its lifetime, and he has consistently held very high approval ratings. A proponent of Bolivarianism, Socialism, and the Human Earthist Front, Bolívar is one of the most influential statesmen on Earth and he was crucial in conflicts such as the Cambodian Crisis, World War IV, the Spectrum raids, and World War V.

Alongside the rest of the Earth, Bolivar died in 2195 due to the Third Impact, but due to Steins;Gate he was able to live on. He participated in the final fight against Max Stirner.

Bolivar's pan-American, pro-egalitarian, and anti-imperialist rhetoric gave birth to Bolivarianism, an ideology that has transformed Latin American politics and influenced dozens of political groups in the region. It was the ideological foundation of the Bolivarian Revolution, a mass ideological transformation of various Latin American countries into Bolivarianism.
