In 1841, El Salvador was constituted as an independent and sovereign nation after the rupture of the Federal Republic of Fundamental America in 1838. At that fourth dimension, the legislative body created a constitution to legitimize the nation of El Salvador and besides named Juan Lindo
Provisional President
of the El salvador on 2 February 1841. It was not until 26 September 1842 Juan José Guzmán was elected by the people as President of El Salvador. From that moment, the commonwealth suffered a constant series of provisional governments that brought many leaders to power.

In 1858, Captain General Gerardo Barrios became President of the Democracy in which his authorities gave entrance to the “French Staff of life”. He resigned from power in 1863 and Francisco Dueñas became President.

In 1931, a insurrection d’état led by Vice President General Maximiliano Hernández Martínez overthrew President Araujo.

From that moment, the presidency of the Republic once again showed dictatorial instability and military governments began to exist established to the indicate of creating a commonwealth with ‘Military Authoritarianism’ which would finish in 1982.

The civil war greatly affected the political stability of the country.
