The Captaincy General of San Juan (Creeperian Spanish: Capitanía General de San Juan; Creeperian Spanish pronunciation: [san xwan]) was a colony and administrative division of the Kingdom of Creeperopolis from 1431 until 1518. It is considered to be the first major colony established by Creeperopolis in Sur.

Etymology
The Captaincy General of San Juan was named after Saint Juan Diego Ulloa y Batrés, a monk of the Creeperian Catholic Church who was martyred by the Caliphate of Deltino in 1232 during the Creeperian Crusade.
History
Establishment
In 1430, Commander Gonzalo Vázquez Luján was commissioned by King Miguel III to lead an expedition of Creeperian soldiers into modern-day Sequoyah with the intention of expanding Creeperian colonial ambitions south. His soldiers landed in modern-day Eastern Sequoyah in 1431, and there, he founded the Captaincy General of San Juan on 13 July 1431. He also established the San Juan Mission and the city of San Juan. Vázquez Luján became the first Captain General of San Juan.
In 1433, Vázquez Luján commanded an expedition west with the objective of conquering land for Creeperopolis and to convert the Natives living there to Creeperian Catholicism. The expedition consisted of 100 soldiers and missionaries. His expedition traveled through Navaja and Caprican territory, and eventually reached the Promethian Canyon in modern-day Itse Ulagohisdi. After crossing the canyon, the Creeperans met with Caprican Natives, but during their meeting, a battle ensued and 53 Creeperans were killed. After the bloody encounter, the expedition returned to San Juan.
In 1435, Vázquez Luján led another expedition of 300 men across Sequoyah with the goal of reaching the western Southern Ocean and to exert revenge against the Capricans which attacked the first expedition. The last report from the expedition reached San Juan in July of 1435, confirming that the expedition had reached the Promethian Canyon. San Juan received no further communications from the expedition and sent out a search party of 100 men to search for the expedition. The expedition was never found and the search party returned home.
