Neutrality dispute?
removed the "neutrality disputed" until someone gives a reason. Dentren |  Ta lk  16:50, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


 * What do you think of the above map? Is it neutral? I think is a monument to the POV-pushing. You can see my arguments in the talk page of War of the Pacific. Also you can see the talk page of the Spanish version of the article: es:Discusión:Guerra_del_Pacífico. Jespinos 18:48, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * This map is erroneous: the border between Bolivia-Chile before the 1879 is the 24th parallel (south of Antofagasta and north of Taltal)... --Yakoo 22:54, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Rejection or Violation ?
It seems that the word violation is not being accepted by some wikipedians here, probably do to it's strong negative and agressive sound, I guess. Nevertheless, I think that violation in this treaty context is the more adequate word than rejection. The treaty between Bolivia and Chile included different aspects which on one side favoured Bolivia (borders) and on others Chile (taxation). My understanding is, that a treaty can only be rejected, if it is not signed yet (example: a treaty proposal can be rejected) or if its being completely overthrown afterwards in a kind of annulation (including all aspects of the treaty). None of this both options was the case in Bolivia. Bolivia did not reject the treaty itself, as it was aware of the positive border aspects, but only did not meet the taxation clause. So they did not fullfill the treaty, which means a clear violation in my understanding and probably many other people. Cheers --194.203.215.254 13:59, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Argentine
"At some time the dispute also involved Argentina that annexed Bolivian territory controlled by Chile. "

The map included the area, but the text? Matthew_hk  t  c  06:07, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Treaty 1874
Arafael states:


 * "On November 27 of 1873 the Antofagasta Nitrate & Railway Company signed a contract with the Bolivian government in which it would have authorized to extract saltpeter duty-free for 15 years"

The problemes arised (mainly) not because a private "contract" between Bolivia and ANRC but a Border treaty of 1874 between Chile and Bolivia.

Many historians have noted that Simon boliva Deliberately claimed additional land for this mountain country even though he knew bolivia will always be a land of mountain people, why is this not mention in the article, its historical facts!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.67.121.60 (talk) 08:57, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
