Bolivia is a small but diverse country in both architecture and culture due to foreign

The American Revolution did much more than any of our founding fathers had ever imagined, it started a movement that would threaten the very roots of colonialism across the globe. Setting an example of how a David could overcome a Goliath, the United States inspired regions such as Latin America to fight for their rights and liberties as well. One such region that embraced the message was Upper Peru, which would later be known as Bolivia. With some key tipping points that caused the war, the leaders of the soon to be formed nation rallied its troops and won several major battles, but even they couldn’t prevent the tough times that lay in the early years of the nation. From the year 1809, Upper Peru was engaged in a

The capital of Bolivia is La Paz. Bolivia is the most impecunious country in South America, which is depressing, but things have gotten better over the past 20 years. La Paz is the highest capital in the world, sitting about 12,000 feet above sea level. La Paz translates to “the peace,” which is abbreviated for “the Peace of Ayacucho.” They had an unscrupulous government, taking money from our people, affecting its economy in a terrible way. Bolivia has the second biggest area of natural gas in South America and also has El Mutun, which is the world’s biggest amount of magnesium and iron, but it is difficult for people to utilize our crops to acquire richness because of its terrible environment and horrible government. The Peace of Ayacucho

than in any other country in the world. Many still speak Quechua, the language of the Incas. In 1975, Quechua was made one of the official languages.

Since the Europeans first entered the Americas in the sixteenth century, indigenous groups have struggled to reclaim political and economic power from the Europeans and their descendants. With the exception of Peru and Bolivia, many countries feature a percentage of less than ten percent purely indigenous people, thus making circumstances unfavorable to create a political voice forceful enough to allow these native groups the political prowess they need (World Development Index). Even in countries with a large percentage of indigenous people, the rise to political power can be a slow process. However, in 2005, Bolivia elected their first president to office from native descent. As the United Nations assesses the perverse situations within indigenous rises to political power, a pristine case to evaluate would be that of Bolivia. With the election of Evo Morales, Bolivia began their empowerment of the indigenous population and encountered difficulties in providing necessities such as education and economic assistance to bridge the gap in social and economic separations of opportunity between the native and non-native populations.

There were thousands of pounds of gold aboard the huge ship, transporting it all to New York. Everyone on board had come from the gold rush in California, migrating to the Big Apple to start fresh with newfound wealth. There was a large crowd of people waiting to enter the boat, each shoulder to shoulder ready to board.

Did you know that 1 out of 100 people in Bolivia have a car? Bolivia is not a rich country, in fact is it the poorest country in South America. Bolivia is a very interesting country, because of its Land,Weather, its people, and its animals.

Another dimension to the predicament in Colombia is the drug problem. Colombia is the largest producer and provider of cocaine in the world. This problem, however, is not separate to the armed conflict. In the recent past decades, control over the drug business in Colombia has shifted from drug cartel organizations such as the notorious Medellin Cartel, to both the

Is the new president of Bolivia named Evo Morales or Evil Morales? Just recently he rose to power from inheritance. He has already stated that he will take control of the country's natural resources. He is taking away from the already poorest country in South America. This will destroy the economy that these Bolivian citizens have worked so hard to create by 70 to 80 percent. Joey Mcmahon, a farmer in the area states, “the new power here will surely dig the hole we are in even deeper than it already is.

Met the highest authorities of the State in all its levels; there was talk of security, on budgets, talked about money, investment and nothing was said almost nothing of the tremendous insecurity in which we live the Bolivians in all parts of the country. We live no longer a wave or a high peak of violence, but rather a constant that is repeated; no longer provides enough to consider this as an exception, but as a norm to the citizens we must resign ourselves.

The Bolivia and Paraguay border in the Chaco region of South America was never clearly defined by Spain because Spain did not expect the line to become an international border. When the two countries became independent states, the Chaco region was not a problem until Bolivia wanted access to the sea. Because the region was mostly uninhabitable, neither side had felt the need to fight over it. Bolivia had lost its coastline to Chile, but with the Chaco region, Bolivia would have access to the Atlantic via the Río Paraguay and Río de la Plata. Tensions between the two countries increased throughout the 1920s, and it finally led to Bolivia attacking a Paraguayan military post on June 15, 1932. Paraguay formally declared war against Bolivia on May 10, 1933, and was on the defensive until December 1934 when they led their first offensive attack. Overall, the Bolivian military was very disorganized and could not organize themselves enough to have a legitimate chance at winning the war once Paraguay began leading attacks. Paraguay

In the Andes Mountains of Bolivia, in a far, tucked-away corner lay a beautiful green field. This place had a family living on it who were very hard workers, but they also were very poor. There was a middle aged man and women living on this farm. Along with them they had a son. The father and his son would get up just before the crack of dawn and would work until lunch and then keep working until dusk. For all this hard work they made very little money. The family could not afford an education for their son, so the mother home schooled the boy at night so he could work in the fields during the day. The boy and his father would go into town every week to get much needed groceries for themselves. They would get a lift from a local friend who knew the family very well. When they went into town, which only had a population of about 250 people, the boy would look in amazement at how many people could fit into one place. The one thing that the boy took notice to were the posters placed all over the place. Here, there, everywhere, were posters of the famous Bolivian Formula One driver who had grown up with nothing and is now living and racing on a grand scale, and is leading for the Formula One drivers championship. The poster next to him said “Karting Jr. race league! First race next Saturday! $30 dollars to join.”
