List Of Heads Of State Of Ecuador
This article contains a list of President of Ecuador, presidents of Ecuador, since the independence from Gran Colombia (1830) to the present day. Background Juan José Flores was the first constitutional president of Ecuador, declaring the separation of the State of Ecuador from Gran Colombia, maintaining its presidential government structure, which has remained until the present day.
