Vice presidents of the Republic of Gran Colombia (1819–1831)
Vice presidents of the departments
Upon creation of the Gran Colombia, Congress divided the country into three departments and appointed a "Vice President" to each one. These vice presidents were more like governors of their department however, and there was no "President" for every department. so it was:
- Francisco de Paula Santander y Omaña, Vice President of the Department of Cundinamarca.
- Juan Germán Roscio Nieves, Vice President of the Department of Venezuela.
- Office vacant, Vice President of the Department of Quito.
The office of Vice President of Quito was left vacant since it was still under Spanish rule, but once it was liberated the office was never filled either.
