		Valdivia is a city in southern Chile, founded by Pedro de Valdivia, located at the confluence of the Calle Calle, Valdivia and Cau Cau rivers, some 15 km east of the coastal town and bay of Corral.
		The city of Valdivia and the island of Chiloé were the two southernmost enclaves of the Spanish Empire and administratively depended directly from the Crown.
		Even though after Pedro de Valdivia's death the border of the Spanish Empire shifted northwards, to the Biobio River, the city of Valdivia remained a Spanish enclave, and along with the island of Chiloé remained the southernmost locations of the Empire.
