Brief History
South America has nearly every type of landscape and climate. The world's
largest tropical rain forest grows in the Amazon River Basin, which occupies
about two-fifths of the continent. The Atacama Desert in northern Chile is
one of the driest places in the world. Snowy peaks and active volcanoes rise
along the crest of the lofty Andes Mountains of western South America. In
Argentina and Venezuela, rolling grasslands stretch for as far as the eye can
see. South America's varied landscape also includes spectacular waterfalls,
huge lakes, and rocky, windswept islands.
