Estado Guzmán Blanco, Historical region in central-northern Venezuela.

Estado Guzmán Blanco encompassed territories that later formed the states of Aragua, Guárico, Miranda, Nueva Esparta, and the Vargas department of the Federal District.

The region operated as an administrative division of the United States of Venezuela from 1873 to 1889, initially establishing its capital in Villa de Cura before moving to Maracay.

The state population of 120,000 inhabitants used Venezuelan bolivar currency and followed Spanish language customs under predominant Catholic religious practices.

The territory underwent redistribution in 1889, leading to its dissolution and incorporation into other Venezuelan states, primarily becoming part of modern-day Miranda State.

The region received its name from Antonio Guzmán Blanco, who implemented substantial educational reforms and infrastructure projects during his presidency of Venezuela.
