TheTeoponte Guerrilla was an armed conflict that occurred in 1970. After the failure ofChe Guevara'sguerrilla, radical leftists inBolivia began to organize again to set up guerrilla resistance, but suffered severe persecution that left many incarcerated, dead, or in exile. Despite this, radical university students in Bolivia organized a new insurgency attempt inTeoponte in 1970, trying to overcome mistakes made by Guevara's guerrilla. The participants were mostly Bolivians, but Chileans, Argentines, and Peruvians also partook. The guerrilla, which took form in an expedition into the lowlands starting from theAltiplano, lasted from July 19 to November 1 and saw most of its inexperienced participants die by attacks from the military or from disease. WhenSalvador Allende assumed office in Chile on November 4, his very first decree was to give asylum to the survivors.^[1]
