The Battle of Pichincha 24th May

The 24th May 1822 is a date etched in the heart of every proud Ecuadorian. It is the day that the
battle of Pichincha took place on the slopes of the volcano above Quito. The day a famous victory
would end centuries of Spanish occupation of the city, and mark a turning point in the
independence of the country. Today, battle of Pichincha celebrations are held every year on 24th
May in cities, towns, and villages across Ecuador. This public holiday remembers the soldiers who
fought Ecuador's war of Independence.

What happened at the Battle of Pichincha?

General Sucre’s patriot army was a rag-tag mix of 1,700 men when they left the city of Guayaquil.
Some were veterans of old campaigns, other were raw recruits eager to fight for the cause. They
included a rather strange mix of Ecuadorians, Colombians, Peruvians, indigenous natives, and
even a battalion of English, Irish, and Scots, whom Bolivar successfully recruited some to join his
forces in South America.

Sucre led his men on a route south through Machala, Cuenca and Saraguro, then up through the
central Andean valley passing Riobamba and Latacunga. Along the way 1,300 more men joined
the march, boosting their numbers to around 3,000. Instead of heading into a frontal attack on
unfavorable terrain, he decided to attempt an outflanking manoeuvre Sucre also knew that they
stood a better chance if they could attack from high ground. So, at night he ordered his army to
climb the slopes of Pichincha Volcano, overlooking Quito. By dawn his army were only half way
 up the volcano, which left them exposed and without the element of surprise. To make matters
worse, his men were exhausted, cold and wet, with some suffering from altitude sickness. Finally,
after 3 hours of bloodshed the battle ended when the royalist Spanish forces suffered heavy
losses and ordered a retreat. The following day Sucre marched his proud army into Quito city to
accept the formal surrender of the Spanish troops. The liberation of Quito had proven 3rd time
lucky

important role in the healthy living and
the existence of life on the planet earth.

Earth is a home for different living species and we all are dependent on the environment for
food, air, water, and other needs. Therefore, it is important for every individual to save and
protect our environment.

includes both renewable and non-
renewable resources. Eg. Wood,
soil, land.
2-Sustains life: it includes the sun,
soil, water, air which are essential
for human life. It sustains life by
providing genetic and
biodiversity.

getting rid of the garbage.

mountains, deserts. These add the quality of life
