A long-standing border dispute involving Leticia, between Colombia and Peru, was decided in 1934 by the League of Nations after these two nations were engulfed in an armed conflict known as the Colombia-Peru War. It is adjacent to the larger Brazilian city of Tabatinga. Together with the Peruvian city of Santa Rosa de Yavari, the entire urban area has more than 120,000 residents spread along the Amazon River.
