| Spanish Name | |
| Reunificación de la Gran Colombia | |
Reunification of Gran Colombia refers to the potential future reunification ofColombia,Venezuela,Ecuador, andPanama under a single government. AlthoughGran Colombia only existed for 12 years and dissolved in the 19th century,[1] interest and efforts in reunification were expressed as early as 1903 whenPanama separated from Colombia. People in favor of reunification are called"unionistas" or unionists. In 2008,President of VenezuelaHugo Chávez announced a proposal for the political restoration of Gran Colombia, under theBolivarian Revolution.[2]
Some commentators[who?] believe that a reunified Gran Colombia could become a global economic powerhouse. That would contrast with Gran Colombia in the 1820s, whose economy was mostly agrarian and had little industry.[3]
If Gran Colombia existed in 2017, it would have had a population of 96 Million people and an estimatedgross domestic product ofUS$952 Billion.[4]
