Excited about the possibilities that, in his view, Zenta Valley offered,- where there had been a mission established by the Franciscans - he decided to found a city particularly designed for defensive purposes. In late August 1795 he founded the city of San Ramon de la Nueva Oran (in a curious double tribute to himself, put his name and his hometown in the new city's name) - but the forest landscape of the New Oran not seems nothing like the desert coast of the old.
