| Spanish abstract | El Estado Soberano del Tolima era uno de los más pobres y conflictivos de la Colombia federal. Su principal fuente de riqueza fue la exportación de tabaco y añil durante breves periodos de auge, cuyo declive subsanó en parte la colonización antioqueña, la cual imprimió cierto dinamismo al norte del Estado. La heterogeneidad de las élites dirigentes provocó numerosos enfrentamientos, agravados por las guerras civiles nacionales. Aunque tuvo grandes dificultades para construir Estado en su territorio, el Tolima logró algunos avances en su organización política, en sus finanzas y, sobre todo, en la cobertura de la educación pública |
| English abstract | The Sovereign State of Tolima was one of the poorest and most conflictive of Federalist Colombia 1863-1886). Its main sources of wealth were the exports of tobacco and indigo which had short periods of prosperity, complimented by the Antioqueño colonization that introduced a growth dynamic to the north of the State. Its geographical diversity and of its regional elites created frequent armed conflicts, compounded by the contagion of Colombian civil wars, since its territory was right in the middle of the country and besides the main river that communicated most of it. All these factors weighed heavily and made it difficult for state building at the regional level; in spite of them, as we will show, Tolima achieved some advances in its political organization, in its finances and, above all, in the coverage of its public educational system |
