Colônia do Sacramento was an isolated Portuguese colony build right in front of Buenos Aires in order to contest Spain’s dominance over the Plata river. To say Spain opposed its creation would be putting it mildly, it invaded Sacramento 6 times from its founding in 1680 until 1750, each time being forced to give it back to Portugal by the peace agreements. Finally in 1750 Portugal agreed to give it up peacefully, but the deal failed and Portugal returned in the 1760s. Spain invaded again and Portugal agreed to give it up again in 1777. Spain lost the territory with the Latin American independence wars, only for Portugal to seize the opportunity to take it again with the rest of Uruguay. Then Brazil became independent and took it from Portugal, only for a war with Argentina to break out in 1825 resulting in the territory becoming part of independent Uruguay in the end in 1828.
