[edit] Moving a section

How about moving the section "List of Viceroys" to a separate article, "List of Viceroys of Peru"? That would be parallel to the way Viceroys of New Spain is handled, and more convenient if all the reader is looking for is "who came when". And it will probably be necessary when the main article is expanded anyway, to keep it to a reasonable size. Rbraunwa 13:03, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

yes it does because it was "asigned" during the 70's, the real ones use squares --Andersmusician $ 02:48, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
There's no "Inca flag", the Incas had no notion of flag thus never had one. The wiphala (or rainbow flag) was a 20th-century invention by members of the indigenista movement. Check the relevant discussion at Talk:Inca Empire --Victor12 02:56, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Battle of Ayacucho

I am deleting the reference to the Battle of Ayacucho as being alternatively called "The Battle of Quinua." Many battles names are misnomers due to faulty knowledge of geography at the time they are named (see American Civil War) but this is nothing more than an historical curiosity. No source nor person I am aware of would refer to the Battle of Ayacucho as the Battle of Quinua...even if the combatants were closer to Quinua than to Ayacucho.
