Simon Bolivar and Latin Americans Revolutions

Why ia Simon Bolivar famous, and why is his named after a country- Bolivar helped Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Bolva, and Peru to the indepandance for Veneszuela in1821. He is known as the "liberator of Soouth America".
Who did he help defeat and what was he fighting for-he was fighting for the Latin American's. They wanted freedom, liberty, equality deal that the Americans and French fought for. And he wanted the same (revolution and independance).
I think when he was in Spain in1804 with his totur and friend, Sumon Rodriquez. He had lost his respect for Napoleon, which he says betrayed the repubilican ideals. Then when Bolvar was in Italy he made that famous vow atop Mount Aventin of Rome to never rest until America was Free.
