Colombianization of Leticia, Putumayo and Caquetá

The Colombianization of Leticia, Putumayo and Caquetá is the name used to designate a process of transculturation or acculturation of the areas recognized under the sovereignty of Colombia, with the purpose of transplanting Colombian cultural traditions, in replacement of those cultivated in Peru. After a long border conflict, Peru recognized Colombia's possession of the area between the Caquetá and Putumayo rivers; and the so-called Leticia Trapeze, a corridor that provides Colombia with an outlet to the Amazon River.
