Eloy Alfaro

José Eloy Alfaro Delgado often referred to as "The Old Warrior," was an Ecuadorian politician who served as the President of Ecuador from 1895 to 1901 and from 1906 to 1911. Eloy Alfaro emerged as the leader of the Liberal Party and defined the party while he lived. He became one of the strongest opponents of the pro-Catholic conservative President Gabriel García Moreno (1821–1875). Alfaro played a central role in the Liberal Revolution of 1895 and fought against political conservatism in Ecuador for almost 30 years.
