About the Unconventional conflicts and other kind of conflicts section
[edit]I am adding a section on unconventional conflicts from Bolivia. The list is neither perfect nor complete. In any case, you will notice that the list mostly refers to internal Bolivian conflicts with two exceptions: the Brazilian invasion of Bolivia in 1825 and the Peruvian intervention in Bolivia in 1828. The reason why I put these conflicts in this section and not in the section of conventional wars is that, although both countries did indeed want to annex Bolivian territory in those respective years, at no time, as far as I know, was a real armed confrontation and, in both cases, everything was resolved relatively quickly through diplomatic channels. They are not really considered "wars" in the strict sense of the word and that is why I am following the format that is in use in Spanish version of this wiki. --Ají Picante (talk) 14:27, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
Other inaccuracies
[edit]In the course of these months I have seen how wikipedia users have been modifying the page without a clear understanding of the military or diplomatic history of Bolivia. Here are a few errors: in the Brazilian invasion of Chiquitos it is clearly indicated that Brazil withdrew, therefore, it did not get to annex that region. How then, is it a defeat? Second, in the war between the Argentine confederation and Bolivia, it is also clearly stated that most of the tarija was distributed to Bolivia, making it a clear Bolivian victory and third: over the section entitled "Argentine invasion of the Puna de Atacama ", well, that is an Argentine diplomatic victory that occurred as a consequence of the Chilean victory in war of the pacific. I will add it to the results of the war of the Pacific, however, it is not and cannot be considered a "war", at least not according to the criteria of the same wikipedia.--Ají Picante (talk) 02:46, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
