- The Battle of Martín García was fought from 10 to 15 March 1814 between the forces of the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata under the command of then-Lieutenant Colonel Guillermo Brown, and the royalist forces commanded by frigate captain Jacinto de Romarate, defending the region. After a small naval engagement where the running aground of the leading revolutionary vessel gave the royalists a small victory, but suffering numerous casualties, the United Provinces troops took the island by assault forcing Romarate's squadron to retreat. Brown's victory divided the enemy's forces, and secured the United Provinces' control of access to the interior waterways, and made possible their advance on Montevideo. After the decisive victory at the Buceo engagement, they could also blockade the city to the open sea completing the land blockade by the army, causing the city's surrender. (en)
- El combate de Martín García, parte de la Campaña Naval de 1814, se libró entre los días 10 y 15 de marzo de 1814 entre las fuerzas de las Provincias Unidas del Río de la Plata al mando del entonces oficial británico de origen irlandés Guillermo Brown y la flotilla española bajo el mando del capitán de fragata Jacinto de Romarate fondeado en la Isla Martín García. Tras un combate naval en que resultaron vencedores los realistas, sufriendo los atacantes revolucionarios numerosas pérdidas, estos consiguen reagruparse y tomar por asalto la isla de Martín García, obligando a la escuadra de Romarate a retirarse del lugar. La victoria estratégica conseguida por Brown al tomar la isla, dividió a las fuerzas navales españolas y aseguró para las Provincias Unidas el control del acceso a los ríos interiores y posibilitó estrechar el bloqueo sobre Montevideo. Romarate se vio obligado a refugiarse en la desembocadura de los ríos Negro y Uruguay, y si bien este jefe español obtuvo luego una victoria en el Combate de Arroyo de la China, no tuvo aquella acción consecuencia alguna en la campaña naval. La decisiva victoria revolucionaria en el Combate naval del Buceo provocó la capitulación de Montevideo y de Romarate. (es)
- La battaglia di Martín García fu combattuta dal 10 al 15 marzo 1814 tra le forze delle Province Unite del Río de la Plata, sotto il comando dell'allora tenente colonnello William Brown, e le forze realiste guidate dal capitano di fregata Jacinto de Romarate, che difendevano il territorio. Dopo un breve combattimento navale vinto dai realisti a causa del danneggiamento della nave ammiraglia patriota, con un alto numero di perdite da parte degli attaccanti, le truppe delle Province Unite si impossessarono dell'isola di Martín García con un assalto, costringendo al ritiro la squadra navale di Romarate. La vittoria di Brown divise le forze nemiche, assicurò alle Province Unite l'accesso all'interno delle vie fluviali e rese possibile l'avanzata su Montevideo. Dopo la decisiva vittoria del Buceo, i rivoluzionari poterono chiudere il cerchio attorno alla città, già assediata da terra, causandone la resa. (it)
