==History==
On November 30, 1538, Sucre was founded under the name ''Ciudad de la Plata de la Nueva Toledo'' (City of Silver of New Toledo) by [[Pedro Anzures]], Marqués de Campo Redondo. In 1559, the Spanish [[Philip II of Spain|King Philip II]] established the ''[[Royal Audience of Charcas|Audiencia de Charcas]]'' in La Plata with authority over an area which covers what is now Paraguay, southeastern Peru, northern Chile and Argentina, and much of Bolivia. The ''[[Real Audiencia of Charcas]]'' was a subdivision of the [[Viceroyalty of Peru]] until 1776, when it was transferred to the newly created [[Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata]]. In 1601 the Recoleta Monastery was founded by the Franciscans and in 1609 an [[archbishopric]] was founded in the city. In 1624 [[St Francis Xavier University of Chuquisaca]] was founded.
