Due to the rebellion of José Tomás Boves in 1814 and the fall of the republic, he returned to New Granada, where he then commanded a Colombian nationalist force and entered Bogotá in 1814, recapturing the city from the dissenting republican forces of Cundinamarca.
He intended to march into Cartagena and enlist the aid of local forces in order to capture Royalist Santa Marta.
However, after a number of political and military disputes with the government of Cartagena, Bolívar fled in 1815 to Jamaica, where he requested the Haitian leader Alexandre Pétion for aid.
In defeat, Bolívar made his way to Cartagena in New Granada (now Colombia), where he issued the CartagenaManifesto (1812), a public statement giving his views on how to achieve independence.
While sailing for Cartagena, he learned that the port had fallen to the royalists, so he changed course and landed in Haiti.
Bolívar died on the way to Cartagena on December 17, 1830, at the age of 47.
