词源
Bolivia; boliviano; bolivar. Commemorative of Simon Bolí- var (1783–1830), the legendary South American revolutionary, soldier, and statesman, are the bolívar monetary unit of Vene- zuela and the boliviano of Bolivia. Simon Bolívar, the Liberator, led Venezuela’s revolution against Spain and founded Greater Colombia (then a union consisting of Venezuela, Ecuador, and New Granada, the present-day Colombia). He is one of the few men in history to have a country named after him in his life- time and probably the only one to create and give that same country its constitution. Bolivia, or Upper Peru as it was then known, was first named República Bolívar in the great soldier and statesman’s honor.
