Like the municipality of Urdaneta, located in the State of Lara, Rafael Urdaneta is named after a hero of the independence of Gran Colombia and Venezuela. General Rafael Urdaneta (1789-1845) was a brother-in-arms of Simon Bolívar, who appointed him Secretary of War in 1828. After Bolívar's death, he attempted to preserve the unity of Great Colombia, to no avail, and was forced to exile. After his return to Venezuela, President Soublette sent him as his envoy extraordinary to Europe in order to obtain the recognition of the new state of Venezuela. Urdaneta died in Paris, on his way to Madrid.
