This article discusses the political relations between the elites of the Colombian Caribbean coast and the national government, during the presidency of Carlos Eugenio Restrepo, born in Antioquia, who ruled from 1910 to 1914. It is argued that the separatist threats from such hegemonic groups in the Caribbean coast, as well as their power tensions with the central government, were fundamental as political pressure mechanisms, and intervened in the regionalization process of this part of the country. These pressures were manifestations of a malaise affecting the relations of the Caribbean coast elites with the central government, in a moment when the State was going through an adjustment in its economic and bureaucratic structure, in connection to the consolidation of the central Andean region as hegemonic over the other regions in the country.

Keywords : Colombia; Colombian Caribbean coast; separatism; regionalization; state; Carlos Eugenio Restrepo; conservatives; Andean region.
