This originated one of the first constitutional antecedents of 1853. The "Regulation for the Political and Administrative Regime and Reform of the 30 Peoples of the Misiones", which guaranteed rights to the originals. But the political and military alternatives of successive times nevertheless prevented its effective fulfillment.
