Together with this it is possible to conclude that based on these distinctions in the content of the regulation of the union of fact in both countries, the Ecuadorian legal regulations in this sense, is much more advanced and evolved than the one of its Peruvian pair, being evidenced in this sense, an undeniable progress, of the institution in the country, although worthy of perfecting itself.
