Bolivia is the 2nd poorest country in South America, and was the poorest before the crisis in Venezuala. Like any country’s economic situation, Bolivia’s economic struggles are complex and heavily debated…but it’s relatively easy to identify at least one of the many reasons, it’s geography.

A mention of Cuenca would have been nice. It’s in southern Ecuador, third largest city and nestled in the Andes next to the Cajas National Park. Also a UNESCO Word Heritage Site.
My favorite trip ever was going to the Galapagos and Ecuador. The country is so unique, even compared to its neighbors.
Great video! I visited Ecuador in 2019 and was blown away by the sheer variety of landscapes at every turn. Its an incredibly beautiful country. I need to go back to spend some time in the Galapagos and also hike a few more mountains and volcanos.
I love that my troubled little piece of land gets the attention it deserves and I thank you for this video, but 10min videos and stock photos will never do it justice. This is something you have to experience..
I feel blessed to live in such a beautiful and culturally rich country.
Wish I could visit one day 😊 Peace & love from far away, cold Finland!
thank you for sharing how beautiful my country is 👌🏼🙌🏼🇪🇨
I love your country and l have it mind relocate the Ecuador
FINALLY
As an Ecuadorian I've waiting for this video since you started uploading videos about south American countries and their geography
It's actually funny how Ecuador is slightly larger than Iowa but has so much more things to see. Iowa only has one climate zone. Mountains are truly God's gift to the Earth
Id rather have the chicks in iowa
I’m going to go ahead and apologize before hand for any mispronunciations.
I couldn’t do any better
It couldn't possibly be any worse than the podcast I listened to yesterday in which the narrator put the emphasis of Yakima on the middle syllable rather than the first (and repeated the word at least 100 times).
Ya-KEE-ma ya-KEE-ma ya-KEE-ma. It drove ne bonkers for an hour.
You mispronounced West as East when mentioning Guayaquil. But other than that you did fine
Great video. This deserves a part 2. So much more to see in Ecuador. The coast has so many diverse climates: You could be driving through a very humid area with mountains and an hour and a half later you are in a dry tropical area with dry cliffs, and then back to tropical forest. It is crazy. That's what's great about Ecuador it is so small but yet so diverse, you can visit 3 regions in one day and all done by car. Come visit us, the people is also very welcoming and always willing to go out of their way to provide service and assistance. And don't start me about the food. Healthy, nutrición and slow cooked. It is basically healthy, warm confort food. 🙂
those sound more like biomes than climates
Please do more South American geography videos - a beautiful and overlooked continent.
South America is underrated in my opinion. The Andes region is my most favourite natural place in the world. Besides all the things Geography Geek mentioned about this region, I would point out that the Andes has a lot of active volcanoes. Some of them are comparable in size and power to the Yellowstone supervolcano in USA. Yes, the Andes has a lot of supervolcanoes. As a matter of fact, the region is still in the process of either creating new supervolcanoes or transforming normal volcanoes into supervolcanoes.
Thank you for making a video about Ecuador!! ❤️
I would love it if you make a video of Chile, keeping in mind its longitude, which covers a large amount of climate and diversity.
¡Si, Chile por favor, y Bolivia!
Quito was the first world heritage site declared by UNESCO. It was a model before the thousands of special sites around the world. There are more than 100 volcanoes in Ecuador. It has the largest number of rivers per square Km. And many more facts. Thanks for your nice video.
Nature having constitutional rights should be a common sense thing all over the world. Thank you Ecuador, for going first and being a role model on that front!
In paper we have one of the most progressive constitutions in the world. But in practice, useless governments, rampant corruption and illegal mining and trafficking just destroy any attempts of enforcing it. Its pretty sad actually, because the beauty of this little country is unique and something worth protecting.
@@Pulpos999 I think it still matters to have written down how things should or could go. Even in the greatest mess, I think it is vital to have an idea what the goal must be and why. This way it is easier to understand what has to change. In some countries there were never any proper constitutions, let alone political education, so people do not even know on paper what a better government would look like.
Sadly it’s not enforced and illegal mines are popping up everywhere in the Amazon region :(
I agree 100%..
Fact is, we are all part of nature hence, this law of Ecuador's cover us all, animals, oceans, plants and humans alike.
The state of Ecuador however, seem to have 'forgotten' to comply with the ruling of the court case which Nature won a while ago, - one if the reasons for the resent paro, correct!?
We are a group of people and the Ecuadorian Embassy in London who have a question about exactly that, waiting with the state of Ecuador right now and, I truly hope we get a positive answer to this very soon....thanks very much in advance dear Ecuador..
@@xaviervasquez4657 Exactly Xavier - hence our question waiting for an answer from the state of Ecuador right now!
Holy crap, Iglesia de la Compañia de Jesús is unbelievable. Wow. For that matter, all of those cathedrals are beautiful.
I'm 44 and I *just barely* learned about the farthest-from-the-earth's-core thing a month or two ago when my friend and his wife climbed Mt. Kiliminjaro.
Great video as always :)
Thank you!
You have done a great job of showing Ecuador, where I live. I settled here after traveling about the World. It is the most beautiful country and has the nicest people in the World. The 4 mainland areas are so diverse. However, you did get the volcano count wrong, but many stories about Ecuador do that.
Can't wait to make Ecuador my home.
Although I think that severe underresearch is the reason why DRC is not in the top 10 biodiverse.
Amazing Biodiversity 🦎🇪🇨🌿
I'll like to see a video about Mexico 😁🇲🇽
One on Mexico is coming soon
@@GeographyGeek When talking about Mexico, it would be wise to mention the destruction of Rainforest by Tren Maya. A complete video about this in """El mal llamado Tren Maya devasta la selva, cenotes y acuíferos de Quintana Roo, Campeche y Chiapas""
I did an abroad year in Quito last year. Now as i came back I feel heartbroken and have this crazy desire to return to Ecuador. This country is the diversest country nature and culture-wise, it pains me to see it through the eyes of media. You have to visit it (at best live in it) to see what great of a country this actually is
Quite interesting 🤩
Quite!!?...Very, I would say....
I am ashamed to say that I discovered you almost half a year ago, and only subscribed a half hour ago; there is no excuse for the delay. Your videos are rich (almost decadent) with information, that must have required many hours of research for each minute of my benefit. You have restored my faith in TH-cam, and I wish you a long and prosperous life. Thank you!
It's all good! I appreciate the kind words!
You could have spoken much more about the amazon region 😊
Quito is actually the most populated city. It used to be Guayaquil for a long time but Quito surpassed Guayaquil’s population in 2020
Very interesting video!
i prefer to judge a country's success by the amount of capybaras living in their country
Well I've seen lots of them free in the oriente region but still we're a poor country ;-;
Went to Peru and Ecuador both were very interesting
I have the feeling that you just missed, when talking about Quito, the absolutely amazing statue they have on top of a hill in the middle of the city. La Virgen del Panecillo, which depicts actually a Woman of the Apocalypse.
Panama Hats made in Ecuador.
I don’t know why, but it blows my mind that a place along the equator, with no seasonal temperature swings, can experience snow.
Thanks!
Mike Judge was born in Ecuador.
Who?
You forgot about Ecuador's coastal microclimates.
Muito bom
🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨
Guayaquil is actually located to the west instead of to the east
I was hacked
The indigenous salasaca community of Galapagos is awesome.
I had no idea the Salasaca are Indigenous to the Galapagos. I visited some of their towns and their weaving studios many years back..... in Tungurahua Province; nowhere near the coast, much less on the islands.
@@SuperVlerik Disculpa si escribo en español, es más fácil para mí. Tienes razón, no existe grupo humano alguno que pueda proclamarse ser "indígena" de las Galapagos. Sin embargo, sí existe una comunidad de indígenas Salasacas en esas islas, principalmente en Puerto Ayora, Isla Santa Cruz. Una buena porción de los primeros colonos ecuatorianos que llegaron a las Galapagos eran Salasacas, y varios de sus descendientes todavía viven las islas. Hay un artículo en google llamado "Indigenous Settlers of the Galapagos", de Pilar Sánchez Voelkl, que detalla más a profundidad este tema, en inglés.
@@fabrizzioantoniodominguezp349 Wow Fabrizzio. No lo sabía. ¡Gracias por hacer mi día más interesante! Buscaré ese artículo y aprenderé un poco más.
Do Chile
please finish the construction of the basilica.
Can you make a video of Island countries in the Caribbean?
How safe is it to visit?
As safe as most other countries and, as safe as you and I make it 😊
guess whose moving there. yup, this guy ✌

Why would they get the equator wrong by 200m ??
Great ! Can I repost your all videos to the platform named Gan Jing World, which is full of clean valuable videos?
The same can be said if I95 .... Construction will never end!
1:59 rotate that image when you use it! this is a geography channel afterall. Why do everybody's video show this stock image of Quebec and New Brunswick as a mirrored image? It always makes me wonder, just how much the creator actually knows or cares about geographical accuracy. 😄
Cuenca , you missed Cuenca, Cajas national park is so beautiful 😊.
Next time 😉
Do Venezuela, pls
I would like to see video about saudi arabia I want ppl see how interesting is my country
Ah yes the E-quator
Chimborazo good pissing perch
Do Nepal one day.
Did you not include Alaska and Hawaii in your biodiversity ranking? It's so hard to believe the US is only 10th!!
Fun Fact: the surface of the Earth is smoother than the surface of a ball bearing.
Mi país mi país 🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨 seriously we have so much to offer and and so many problems to solve🤡😂
You failed to mention "Our Lady of Good Success," the Shrine which celebrates the appearance of the Blessed Virgin Mary who predicted many of the events that are lurching society from its equator of equilibrium!
Proffesional video, low views
You missed Cuenca the best city in Ecuador
Video advertising square space
the name of the Ecuador came from ancestry's the empire of the Q.TUS and INKAS give the name DOOR of the SON ..or DOOR of the world. for that Aria where is city of the Quito today because for INKAS right there around the mountains was center of the world 🌎
Dude sounds Normal at 1.25x
Thrre new specie snake found in graveyard? Wtf
Compañía de Jesus is the Spanish name for the Jesuits, hence the Baroque style of the church.
what accent is this
US Southern
lol legal and constitutional rights to animals lmao!
Ecuador When banana drugs
🇵🇪🇨🇱🙋🏿♂️🏹🤡😭
No it's not
That's just mean lol
Interesting video. I should point out that you Spanish pronunciation is cringe worthy. Your accent would suggest southern USA with English being your primary language, but with Spanish pronunciation, you aren’t really trying.
I'm Ecuadorian and I think his pronunciation isn't bad at all.
Great work. Ecuador is the pocket version of Peru . . .
