The Republic of Iquicha, also known as the Republiqueta of Iquicha, was a republiqueta and de facto autonomous region formed in Huanta by General Antonio Huachaca, a mestizo loyal to the Spanish Empire against the newly formed Peruvian Republic. The state existed from Peru's declared independence in 1821 until its incorporation to the country on 15 November 1839.
