%X this article establishes the importance of the central or bolivia canton during the nitrate expansion cycle (1880-1930). we define the canton concept and establish a new expansion period (1887-1920). we conclude that the central canton, in spite of its relevance in the 19th century, belonged to a late saltpeter district, antofagasta. during the first decades of the 20th century, it shifted from being the least important of the five saltpeter districts (tarapac¨¢, tocopilla, antofagasta, aguas blancas and taltal) to being one of the most significant.
