Kingdom of Patagonia (Emancipation Map Game)

The Kingdom of Patagonia (Spanish: Reino de la Patagonia; French: Royaume de la Patagonie), formally Kingdom of Araucania and Patagonia, is an unrecognized state in South America founded by a Feench lawyer and adventurer named Orélie-Antoine de Tounens. The state lacked recognition from the international community, and in 1861 lost the Araucania to the Chili.

History
Orélie-Antoine was elected King by the Mapuche Lonkos (chiefs of tribe) in hope he could help their cause. Under the name of Antoine I, he claimed the regions of Araucania and of eastern Patagonia for his Kingdom. He then established his capital in Perquenco and created a Blue, white and green flag for his nation.

The creation of the Kingdom of Araucania and Patagonia lead to the approval of the Occupation of Araucania by Chilean forces in 1861. Following the lost of the region, Antoine I decided to recognize the autority of Chili over Araucania, thus abandoning all pretensions over the region, in hope of stopping their advance in the region.
