Because of the existing situation at the end of 1868 in the fields of Cuba Free, characterized by the existence of two groups and two different flags, that although the agreement between both groups fought such by objective existed between these some differences, was taken to make an assembly in which would give solution to the nonexistence of the single command and to the lack of union and regionalism that reigned between these. As a result of solving these problems that affected prestige at international level of the Cuban movement and at national level the Revolution, the Assembly of Guáimaro was celebrated, in which the main agreement was the Constitution of Guáimaro, political constitution that would govern the time that delayed the war of Independence of Cuba.
