		New Granada was the name given to a group of colonial provinces in northern South America, corresponding mainly to modern Colombia.
		To establish civil government in New Granada, an Audiencia (a "court of hearing") was established at Santa Fé de Bogotá in 1548-1549, a body that combined executive and judicial authority, until a presidencia or governor was established in 1564, assuming executive powers.
		After Ecuador and Venezuela had established their independence, a "Republic of New Granada" centered around the capital of Bogotá lasted from 1831 to 1856, and "New Granada" was a usage that later survived in conservative circles, such as among ecclesiastics.

		He turned to the Iberian peninsula (now organized in the countries Spain and Portugal), which was then ruled by four Christian kingdoms (Aragon, Castille, Saville, and Portugal) and one Muslim kingdom (Granada).
		King Joao II of Portugal rejected the proposal, but King Ferdinand of Aragon and his wife, Queen Isabel of Castille, gave it years of consideration.
