Members of Chile's first political parties, the Conservatives (pelucones, or bigwigs) and the Liberals (pipiolos, or novices), began to coalesce around the church-state issue.

After their victory at the Battle of Lircay, the Conservatives take charge, spearheaded by a Valparaiso merchant, Diego Portales Palazuelos.
