A prominent feature of Spain's response to the rebellions of its Latin American colonies, both during the constitutional régime of 1810-1814 and the absolutist system of Ferdinand VII from 1814-1820, was wide-spread bureaucratic confusion. When José García de Léon y Pizarro became Secretary of State in 1816, he found the whole question of the pacification of America in a deplorable state which had reached 'un punto de exasperación increíble'1In a Council of State session of December 1816, the Navy Minister, José Vázquez de Figueroa, angrily denounced the red tape and inefficient administrative system in which decisions were lost in 'una verdadera lucha de papeles'.2
