Geographical Overview
Bolivia is about three times the size of Montana, making it the twenty-eighth largest country in the world. Even though the country is located in the tropics, the country is not all hot since Bolivia’s varied altitudes create many different climates, even including cold areas such as The Laguna Glacier. The country also has many different physical features. A large portion of western Bolivia is home to the Andes mountain range, further isolating the already landlocked country. Since the land can be difficult to navigate, it is often assumed that much of Bolivia is inhabitable. However, there are also tropical regions, jungles, glaciers, lakes such as Lake Titicaca, and more. These various types of land give the people many natural resources including tin, natural gasses, petroleum, zinc, timber, and hydropower. Some even date back as far as 600 CE and the settlement of the Tiwanaku people. |
