Initially there were two Spanish viceroyalties, both based in the regions which had once held the core of the Aztec and Inca empires: New Spain (Mexico) and Peru. Brazil was also eventually a viceroyalty under the Portuguese crown. Toward the end of the Colonial period two additional vice-royalties were created: New Granada (roughly today's Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Panama), and Rio de La Plata (today's Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia).
