Descreeption
English: General Gregor MacGregor (1786–1845), who, after fighting in the South American wars of independence, returned to Britain and falsely claimed to have been made "cacique" of a fictional Central American country, "Poyais", all in an effort to defraud land investors. Nearly 200 died in 1822 and 1823 in connection with MacGregor's deception, having immigrated to his invented country.
