Following the [[Revolution of 1733]] and the the ratifying of the Tierrador Charter, the Tierradorian Kingdom was formally dissolved and the nation was an morphed into a Confederate Republic. Little changed procedurally as while the Tierrador Charter stated that the nation was a union of seventeen independent regions with the same rights as a sovereign nation, only three of the seventeen regions possessed said powers and rights. The [[Republic of Auqali and Sonaxa (1784–1910)|Auqali Republic]] was not technically considered part of the Tierradorian Confederation, rather a full sovereign, independent nation, with its own military and political interests. The other two regions, [[Arrecife Republic (1803–1892|Arrecife]] and [[Kingdom of Bogocía (1566–1820)|Bogocía]] were considered semi-independent, however still governed from central government.

The Tierradorian Confederation was considered weak and unstable, and the Tierrador Charter and its contents were not considered a true frame of government. The central government had no true power over the regions, leading regions like Auqali and Arrecife to declare themselves independent without any real resistance from the central government. The leader of the Confederation was appointed by the governors of the regions, and had no true power, either, serving as a figurehead for the entire nation and was only consulted to for international relations, therefore expressing fact that there was no true need for a leader in Taisgol. This form of government continued on for about 60 years until 1796, when Robert Derša, the governor of the Las Rozas Region, attempted to declare the Region independent, as he felt that the Confederation was holding his region back from prosperity. This was met with an unusual response, the fourteen other regions united to send their regional militias to Las Rozas to ”dissuade” Derša from declaring independence. Eventually, this led to the [[Internal Wars]], which lasted from 1796 to 1804.

During the Internal Wars, Derša sent his militia to Aracadó and Polelu, completely overwhelming their armies and annexing them both in 1797. After that, the militia was sent towards Taisgol, as he believed that if he could take over the city, it was possible for him to overtake the entire nation and dissolve the confederation. In December of 1797, Taisgol was invaded by Las Rozas. The invasion did not last long, as the newly expanded Las Rozas militia was able to overwhelm and destabilize the Taisgol Army in a matter of weeks. After the militia entered the city and Taisgol was annexed by Las Rozas, Robert Derša relocated his base of operations to Taisgol and formally dissolved the Tierradorian Confederation, creating the Union of Las Rozas in its place. Following that, he received the Tierrador Charter and burned it in front of the Palacio de Prosperidad, signaling a new movement in the history of the nation. The rest of the regions eventually joined the union either by coercion or full military force, except for the three independent regions. Arroyo Rato and Opharez, however, possessing an advantage in being separated from the Union by the independent Arrecife, opted to not join the Union, and even with coercion and threats of military force, Derša knew that Arrecife was not going to allow an invasion of the Western Regions through their land.
