Domingo Elias
Domingo Elias Carbajo was President of Peru for a brief period between June and August 1844.
He assumed the Presidency of Peru during an epoch of civil war, which divided Peru between the followers of Ramon Castilla's government and those of Domingo Elias Carbajo.
After the defeat of the Peru-Bolivian Confederation during the decade of the 1840s, anarchy in Peru became rampant. In 1843, during the government of Manuel Ignacio de Vivanco, Elias was named prefect of Lima. When Vivanco headed to southern Peru to confront the constitutionalist movement of Ramon Castilla, Elias was assigned the governorship of the northern Peruvian provinces. The internal Peruvian conflict was still undecided between the military factions of the country: Vivanco's and Echenique's against Castilla's and San Roman's .
