Some historians have pointed to deeper origins of the war, such as the interest of Chile and Peru in the nitrate business, a long-standing rivalry between Chile and Peru for regional hegemony, as well as the political and economical disparities between the stability of Chile and the volatility of Peru and Bolivia.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>A<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In February 1878, Bolivia increased taxes on the Chilean mining company <i><a href="/w/index.php?title=Compa%C3%B1%C3%ADa_de_Salitres_y_Ferrocarril_de_Antofagasta&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Compañía de Salitres y Ferrocarril de Antofagasta (page does not exist)">Compañía de Salitres y Ferrocarril de Antofagasta</a><span class="noprint" style="font-size:85%; font-style: normal;"> [<a href="https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compa%C3%B1%C3%ADa_de_Salitres_y_Ferrocarril_de_Antofagasta" class="extiw" title="es:Compañía de Salitres y Ferrocarril de Antofagasta">es</a>]</span></i> (CSFA), in violation of the <a href="/wiki/Boundary_Treaty_of_1874_between_Chile_and_Bolivia" title="Boundary Treaty of 1874 between Chile and Bolivia">Boundary Treaty of 1874</a> which established the border between both countries and prohibited tax increases for mining.

Chile insisted that the breach of the treaty would mean that the territorial borders denoted in it were no longer settled. Despite this, Hilarión Daza rescinded the license of the Chilean company, seized its assets and put it up for auction. On the day of the auction, 14 February 1879, Chile's armed forces occupied without resistance the Bolivian port city of <a href="/wiki/Antofagasta" title="Antofagasta">Antofagasta</a>, which was mostly inhabited by Chilean miners.

In 1879, Chile began to exact a tax of 40 cents per "quintal métrico" (100 kg), increasing to $1.60 in 1880.<sup id="cite_ref-132" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-132"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>121<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>As provided by the secret treaty, the allies agreed in the Protocol of Subsidies for Bolivia to bear the costs of the war. The agreement, which regulated the tax income for many years, caused resentments and fears in Bolivia, whose deployment of forces to Tacna was seen as helping Peru. Also, Bolivia knew that its army would be sent not to free the occupied region of Bolivia but to protect Peru. As Daza and his officers came to Tacna and Arica, they failed to see the expected Peruvian military strength and understood that their position of power in Bolivia was threatened by a defeat of the Allies. The Bolivian historian Querejazu suggests that Daza successfully used the Chilean offer of Tacna and Arica for Bolivia to exert pressure on Peru to get a more favorable Protocol of Subsidies. </p><p>The reason that Daza abandoned the Peruvian forces in Iquique and turned back to Arica just before the Battle of San Francisco is uncertain. Some historians say that he wanted to keep the "Regimiento Colorados" untouched since the force secured his political power in Bolivia. Daza later stated that his officers refused to continue the march through the desert, but his shameful withdrawal accelerated his downfall, and he was succeeded by Narciso Campero. In the new government, there was a strong tendency to accept the Chilean offer of Tacna and Arica, but it was eventually refused. Bolivia signed the creation of the United States of Peru and Bolivia, a political fantasy without any practical consequences. Bolivia helped Peru with money and weapons, but the Bolivian army never again intervened in the war. </p><p>In Peru, the political situation was complicated.

He turned over the administration of the state to Vice President Luis La Puerta de Mendoza to assume for himself the command of the army. Because of the Chilean blockade, Peru could not export revenuemaking goods via its ports. As a consequence, public revenue was half of what had been expected, and spending tripled. The Peruvian government in 1879 experienced several political crises and seven ministers of finance. General Buendía, who led the defeated allied troops in Iquique, and More, chief of the sunken warship <i>Independence</i>, were both put on trial but were eventually acquitted. </p><p>The Peruvian government was confronted with widespread rioting in <a href="/wiki/Lima" title="Lima">Lima</a> because of its failures.<sup id="cite_ref-133" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-133"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>122<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On 18 December 1879, as the fall of Iquique became known in Peru, Prado went from <a href="/wiki/Callao" title="Callao">Callao</a> to <a href="/wiki/Panama" title="Panama">Panama</a>, allegedly with the duty to oversee the purchase of new arms and warships for the nation.

Bruce St. John states in <i>Foreign Policy of Peru</i> (p. 116), "Peru attended only out of deference to the [US government] latter, hoping a failure of the talks might lead to more aggressive US involvement." </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Campaign_of_Lima">Campaign of Lima</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=War_of_the_Pacific&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Campaign of Lima"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Lima_Campaign" class="mw-redirect" title="Lima Campaign">Lima Campaign</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Lima_campaign.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Lima_campaign.svg/220px-Lima_campaign.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="398" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Lima_campaign.svg/330px-Lima_campaign.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/82/Lima_campaign.svg/440px-Lima_campaign.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="582" data-file-height="1052" /></a><figcaption>Landing and deployment of Chilean troops during the Campaign of Lima, from November 1880 to January 1881.

Lacking the ships to transport all the troops at once from Arica, the Chileans decided to land a division and then the rest of the army in stages. Their shortage of shipping also precluded an immediate landing at Lima. Instead, <a href="/wiki/Pisco,_Peru" title="Pisco, Peru">Pisco</a>, approximately 320 kilometres (200 mi) south of Lima, was the first landing point. </p><p>On 19 November, 8,800 men, twenty cannons and their supplies reached Pisco. A party of 400 men was landed near the port and they learned that a garrison of 3,000 men defended Pisco. Bypassing it required a landing to be made directly into the port and so a Chilean vanguard was landed in Paracas, ten miles to the south. The force managed to capture Pisco and on 20 November the rest of the Chilean troops landed, later occupying various other nearby coastal cities, securing for the Chileans de facto control of the Peruvian province of Ica. </p><p>On 2 December, 3,500 additional men and 416 horses disembarked in Pisco. Some two weeks later, on 15 December, 14,000 Chilean men, 2,400 horses and mules, and supplies left Arica for the north. Baquedano, the Chilean commander, decided that only one brigade in the Pisco region, Lynch's brigade, would march the 55 miles (89 km) north to the coastal town of <a href="/wiki/Chilca" class="mw-redirect" title="Chilca">Chilca</a>, a town only 45 kilometres (28 mi) from Lima. All other Chilean forces would be re-embarked in Pisco for naval transport to Chilca. The Chilean troops disembarked in Curayaco, slightly north of Chilca, on 22 December 1880. The artillery was later disembarked at Lurín, on the southern outskirts of Lima, as the Chilean army was able to advance quickly after landing. </p><p>Piérola, who had expected a landing north of Lima, ordered the construction of two parallel lines of Peruvian defences, one at <a href="/wiki/Chorrillos_District" title="Chorrillos District">Chorrillos</a> and one at Miraflores. It was hoped that the Peruvian professional Army would defeat the Chileans in Chorrillos. If that measure failed, a reserve army, increased with remnants of Chorrillos and the Callao troops, were expected to hold the Chilean advance at Miraflores. The Peruvian forces numbered approximately 25,000 to 32,000 men and were titled the Army of Lima.<sup id="cite_ref-Sater_1986_274_152-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Sater_1986_274-152"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>141<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The main Peruvian defense line ran from the seaside resort of Chorrillos through Morro Solar, Santa Teresa, San Juan, the Pamplona (hills) until Monterrico Chico, a line of defence approximately 15 km long. <a href="/wiki/Gatling_gun" title="Gatling gun">Gatling guns</a>, artillery, covering forts and trenches located along the top of the steeply natural hills (280 m in Morro Solar, 170 m in Sta.

Baquedano, the army chief, advocated a direct and frontal advance through the Tablada de Lurín. The area was known, with large areas of relatively flat terrain against the line of Chorrillos. The advantages of that path of advance were the shorter distances to be covered, a withdrawal line, the possibility of support from the Chilean navy, water supply from Lurín, and less need to train troops and the complex Chilean discipline to control any advance and subsequent attack. The alternative plan of War Minister <a href="/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Francisco_Vergara" title="José Francisco Vergara">José Francisco Vergara</a> laid down a <a href="/wiki/Turning_movement" title="Turning movement">turning movement</a> that would bypass the Peruvian line by attacking from further to the east: through the Lurín valley, moving via Chantay and reaching Lima at Ate. Using that approach meant that Lima could be seized without resistance or both defense lines could be attacked from the rear. </p><p>Vergara's plan avoided the bloody frontal attack, circumvented all defense works, cut any Peruvian withdrawal line to the east into the formidable Andes, and demoralized the Peruvians. However, there were no steady roads for movement of Chilean artillery and baggage, no water to allow navy support, and many bottlenecks in which a small force might stop the whole Chilean army on the way to Lima or if it had to withdraw. In addition, Vergara's plan required a well-trained and disciplined army. Baquedano pushed and eventually succeeded in having his plan adopted. </p> <dl><dt>Battle of Chorrillos and Miraflores</dt></dl> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3b/BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg/220px-BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="159" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3b/BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg/330px-BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3b/BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg/440px-BATALLA-DE-MIRAFLORES2.jpg 2x" data-file-width="712" data-file-height="515" /></a><figcaption>Battle of Miraflores</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg/220px-Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="157" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg/330px-Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg/440px-Chorrillos_War_Ruins_1881.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1505" data-file-height="1071" /></a><figcaption>Chorrillos, and the consequences of the war. January 1881</figcaption></figure> <p>In the afternoon of 12 January 1881, three Chilean formations (referred to as divisions) stepped off from Lurín toward Chorrillos at about 4:00, reaching their attack positions at around 3:00 the next morning. At 5:00 a.m. an assault was begun on the Peruvian forts. Lynch's division charged Iglesias's positions (Morro Solar to Santa Teresa), Sotomayor's men against Caceres's sector (Santa Teresa to San Juan) and Lagos's division charged Davila's sector (San Juan to Monterrico Chico). Chilean and Peruvian soldiers locked in hand-to-hand combat and attacked one another with rifles, bayonets, rocks and even their bare hands. At the beginning, Sotomayor was unable to deploy in time, and Lynch's advance was repulsed. Baquedano was forced to throw in reserve brigades to salvage Lynch's flank. At 8:00 a.m., the Peruvian defenders were forced to withdraw from San Juan and Santa Teresa to Morro Solar and Chorrillos (town). At noon, Morro Solar was captured and the battle continued into Chorrillos, which fell at 14:00 (2 p.m.). During the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Chorrillos" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Chorrillos">Battle of Chorrillos</a>, the Chileans inflicted a harsh defeat on the regular Peruvian forces, eliminating Lima's first defensive line.

Allegedly, the strategic purposes were to obtain the peace. There is no general list of the looted goods, but many of the shipments were registered in private and official letters, newspaper articles, manifests, etc. Also, looting of cultural assets of Peru by the Chileans and Peruvians occurred; the development of international law regarding the protection of cultural objects evolved over the 19th and 20th centuries, but the idea of protecting cultural assets first emerged in Europe in the 18th century.<sup id="cite_ref-221" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-221"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>209<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Lieber_Code" title="Lieber Code">Lieber Code</a> of 1863 unconditionally protected works of art during an armed conflict (Art. 35) but expressly consented to the use of cultural property as war reparations (Art. 36).<sup id="cite_ref-222" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-222"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>210<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In fact, <a href="/wiki/Sergio_Villalobos" title="Sergio Villalobos">Sergio Villalobos</a> states that in 1817, the US accepted the confiscation of art works but the <a href="/wiki/Law_of_war#International_treaties_on_the_laws_of_war" title="Law of war">1874 Project of an International Declaration concerning the Laws and Customs of War</a> asserted that the cultural assets were to be considered as protected.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEVillalobos2004230_223-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVillalobos2004230-223"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>211<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In March 1881, the Chilean government began to seize the <a href="/wiki/Biblioteca_Nacional_del_Per%C3%BA" class="mw-redirect" title="Biblioteca Nacional del Perú">Biblioteca Nacional del Perú</a>, and 45,000 books were seized,<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEVillalobos2004230_223-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVillalobos2004230-223"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>211<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but some of the books were sold in Lima by Peruvians, and so it is contested how much of the booty was taken by the Chilean forces. In any case, in late March 1881, some of the books arrived to Chile, and the press began to inform and discuss about the legitimacy of looting oil paintings, books, statues, etc., or "international robbery", as a journalist of "La Epoca" described it. </p><p>On 4 January 1883, in a session of the Chilean Congress, the deputy <a href="https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augusto_Matte" class="extiw" title="es:Augusto Matte">Augusto Matte Pérez</a> questioned <a href="/wiki/Ministry_of_the_Interior_and_Public_Security_(Chile)" title="Ministry of the Interior and Public Security (Chile)">Minister of the Interior</a> <a href="/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Manuel_Balmaceda" title="José Manuel Balmaceda">José Manuel Balmaceda</a> on the "opprobrious and humiliating" shipments of Peruvian cultural assets.

A tribunal was established in 1886 for German citizens. The "Italian" tribunal also dealt with Belgian citizens, and the "German" tribunal acted for Austrian and Swiss citizens.

Only 3.6% (1,080,562 <a href="/wiki/Chilean_pesos" class="mw-redirect" title="Chilean pesos">Chilean pesos</a>) of the value that was claimed was recognized by the tribunals.
