Peru and Spain share a long history since the arrival of the first Spanish conquistadores led by Francisco Pizarro in 1532.
By 1534, Pizarro managed to overcome the Incan Empire and claimed the territory for Spain.
In 1535, Spain founded the city of Lima which would become the seat of power and capital for the Viceroyalty of Peru which was created in 1542 and at its highest incorporated most of the South American nations.

In the early 1780s, local indigenous people from the highlands took part in widespread uprisings, most notably the revolt of Rebellion of Túpac Amaru II.
They hoped to restore the Inca Empire, however, the revolts were defeated by Spanish forces.
