I hosted a young Chilean grad school couple (husband and wife) for four months in my home near San Francisco. They were working with wildlife populations here, both were already veterinarians. They taught me all these fascinating facts about their beautiful country, and more. I hadn’t known, for example, that the central region, around Santiago, has a similar geography to California, with a lower coastal mountain range and a much higher inland mountain range, separated by a temperate great valley, with a Mediterranean climate. The agriculture is quite similar to ours in Central California, too. One big difference is the underlying tectonics, Chile overlies an active plate boundary subduction zone and California a strike-slip plate boundary. (I couldn’t resist adding this, I’m a geologist). Someday I will go visit my Chilean friends in Santiago.
As a geologist you'll know about the Valdivia Earthquake in Chile The 1960 Valdivia earthquake and tsunami or the Great Chilean earthquake on 22 May 1960 was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded. Various studies have placed it at 9.4-9.6 on the moment magnitude scale. It occurred in the afternoon, and lasted for approximately 10 minutes. 10 minutes! Yikes!
@@cristoybaal not really California wine industry can only produce white wines, California doesn't have Mediterranean weather to get "price winner" red wines (California can produce some wines but they won't win first place ) thats why for example Rothschild wine is in chile france Italy and Mediterranean islands There is many documentary about weather and new technology of drones that can map the best soils and weathers (and Cali is not there) they can do good white wine tho, but Not more than that

I worked on Chile as a field geologist. 15 seasons over 30 years. I loved it. The people, the landscape, the cuisine. If not for serious medical problems, i would retire there. Besides minerals, let's not forget a booming wine industry, fruit exports, fish, and seafood. Within the sotherrn part of the country, lumber, dairy, and wool are huge economic sources. Not to mention tourism. Lovely place.
Health system is very inexpensive for foreign people, or just buy full insurance plans for less than 50 to 45 dollars (Also Chileans can get that type of full insurance)
@@hiwelcometochillis2579 At one point, I was looking to work from Chile as a digital nomad (I work for a US tech startup, Chile's timezone overlaps well). I was apprehensive about the security situation (illegal migration from conflict areas) and the language barrier (unique dialect of Spanish that seemed harder to learn).
@@Qasibr yes illegal migration went crazy (introducing new crimes before 2020 there were just pickpockets like in all countries, but now you can see drvgs gangs from other countries that do terrible for crime rates) illegal migration went crazy in 2020, and even Chilean high demand professionals are emigrating out of chile (because bad government that is doing the same politics of Ukraine president that was and actor? And did terrible politics also Biden that has mental problems and Chilean president that was a college drop out that said 'he wasn't ready to be president' so all those Americans Ukrainian and Chilean presidents are doing the same politics and act with ineptitude on purpose) About lenguage, is not that difficult they're just 50 words that are like dialects or slangs that are trending for a couple of years (but it's just like in the US with trending words like "period" "literally" "red flag" "Rizz" "manifesting" etc that foreign don't get their meanings because they been used for just 17 to 24 months )
@@Qasibrworking in tech I’ve worked with people from the us and the overlap is not so much. As far as safety goes, yeah its gone up in recent years. And some people like the comment above me will blame it all on the left leaning government and illegal immigration (which is in fact a problem that hasnt been addressed properly) but not entirely the problem. Working in chilean companies I’ve seen a lot of chileans doing the same and going off to work from other countries, specially since the pandemic now that jobs are easier to do fully online. If you do think about it again, then best of luck, im sure youd enjoy it a lot and the language barrier isnt that hard to deal with if you immerse yourself and try to talk to a lot of people and have them help you from time to time
In length, Chile would extend from San Francisco to New York but, climate-wise, from the Northern Mexican deserts to the frozen Klondike in Alaska. This last comparison would situate the Chilean demographic center in California.
For the Spaniard conquerors, it was the city of Concepcion and not Santiago which had to be the capital of the Kingdom of Chile. But Concepcion was too close to the frontier with the Mapuche people, so it was a war zone and, besides to that, the city was destroyed by an earthquake not so much time after its foundation. Eventually the Spaniards decided that Santiago was more suitable to be the main city.
Not really, Santiago was always going to be the capital and it was founded as that (it was actually an important urban center for the natives and the Incas before the Spanish arrived). Concepción became important only because it was close to the frontier and was the military capital of the country where the permanent army had its center of operations. The first Real Audiencia was established in Concepción because of that, but Santiago was always the main population center and shortly afterwards the Audiencia was relocated to the capital. Most, if not all of the governors (save some exceptions like Bravo de Saravia and Hurtado de Mendoza), performed the rituals of their position in Santiago and in the churches of the capital.
@@Agora0000 that is not true, la imperial was planned to be the capital but it was destroyed by like the seven cities of the south, next to it like all the 17th century the gobernors lived in concepcion, it was when changed the dinasty to borbon santiago got more importance. Even so that the palace of the gobernor was in decay in santiago before the relocation
Tampoco es verdad, la imperial iba a ser la capital, de ahi el nombre, pero como los indigenas quemaron las "7 ciudades arriba", cambio a santiago, pero en realidad el gobernador como capitan general, vivio casi todo el siglo 17 en concepcion, cambiando oficialmente a capital un par de veces la cabeza obispal de la concepcion
I recall watching a video on how the forests at the very southern tip of Chile have some super ancient species that used to live in Antarctica before it got frozen over, but survived in Chile because those islands shifted north before the climate changed. It's a really interesting country biologically too, not just geographically.
That's so interesting, as a Chilean I had no I idea, I asume you are refering to Araucarias, those trees are not only old as an species but also take like 400-500 years to grow to the sizes you find in Chile. Imagine some bussinesmen burning those native forest to plant trees they can sell. Mapuche people still try to protect those places.
The southernmost part of Chile is Cape Horn (Cabo de Hornos en español). Saw pictures and would really love to visit there, along with the rest of Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia. To get to Cape Horn, I believe you have to be on a cruise that stops there, and only during their summer months (December, January, and February).
I traveled in Chile for over two weeks back in 2019. Though I spent nearly half the time in the Central region around Santiago and Valparaiso areas, I did get the opportunity to go north to the deserts and south to the temperate rain forests. I agree its a fascinating country!
@@lizester2786 temperate is the official term used to by ecologists in this instance refers to forests that receive at least 200cm of rain a year but are not hot or warm all year. (though Valdivian rain forest gets much more). I stayed in Puerto Varas for two nights and did a tour of Perez Rosales NP where we made three stops where we got out (short hike at Salto de petrohue, Lago Todos Los Santos, and visiting the ski area of Volcan Osorno. This was in WINTER (August) and it was raining (drizzling) part of the day not snowing. Just because it maybe chilly for someone coming from a warm climate doesn’t mean it’s not classified as temperate rainforest.
@@bhg123ful Chile does not have any tropical climate, the desert is dry, even hotter and drier than Arizona, and the rainforest is cold, as in Washington state or western Canada. Easter Island, which is 3,700 km away had a tropical forest hundreds of years ago
@@lizester2786 I’m a physical geography and earth science professor - I know these things. I went to Chile knowing about and wanting to experience something like the entire west coast of North America but “up-side down” and in the southern hemisphere. The Atacama is yes., the driest and most barren desert I’m the world, I went to Antofagasta and went to the La Portada sea arch. However it’s not necessarily the hottest as it gets fog due to the cold current. Yes, the Los Lagos region is like Washington state. I am making a point to visit southern hemisphere locations that have similar environments to Western North America. I deliberately went to Chile to experience and visit all latitudinal environments! Secondarily, I visited Chile as it’s a relatively economically well off country and relatively politically stable to travel solo without any tour programs. Generally speaking, most parts of Latin America that are tropical, with the exception of Costa Rica have various health and safety issues one should be aware of and prepare for or avoid.
As a Chilean and a geographer, the main reason is the "intermediate depression", a valley parallel to the coast similar to the one in California. It contains most of the flat land in the country and it's where Santiago and most of the agriculture is. That, and centralizing policies that discourage moving to more distant territories.
He created a video about a country that uses metric system. The majority of the world use Metric System, and they are sugesting to use both systems to share the info instead of one. No one is saying that you guys need to change your system, but the video is on TH-cam and facts are facts, almost no one use imperial. 🥲
As a Chilean, I comprehend the geological and climatic factors influencing the situation, but the true underlying reason is primarily related to job opportunities and economic considerations.
As a Chilean loved that you made a video about our country, the truth is, not many chileans like Santiago, is crowded, too much traffic, and very polluted, in fact a lot of us dream of living on the south or northern part of our country, but we are a very small country in essence, and you can only find good health services, jobs, education, etc in Santiago… with the pandemic and remote work a lot of people moved to other cities and towns, but unfortunately if you live outside Santiago you will likely have to be traveling with some frequency to the capital
I live in Santiago but frequently travel to Los Lagos, and what he said about the climate is not really true anymore because of all the pollution. Summers in Santiago are unbearably hot nowadays. All the traffic creates a cloud of smog and dust that makes everything dirty. Especially with the forest fires this past summer, the heat has been awful. I want to move to the south soon. Edit: I think you can still find good health services in the south, there are many German clinics. It's more expensive, though, so if you don't have a lot of money, I suppose you can find good services for cheaper in Santiago.
it's crazy! i was born and raised in Santiago. I'm 20 y/o and last year my dad moved to Viña del Mar and i tried to do the same but it was unbearable since i had to travel so much to Santiago anyways. If i needed any specic item e.g car parts or even clothing, i just had to go back to Santiago. Actually, it was pretty depressing going back to the mess and chaos of the city. This week i got a job in Puero Natales (Punta Arenas) and i'm so damn excited to leave the crazyness of population lol. That just drives me to the personal conclusion that even though Santiago is great for economic reasons, and many times necessary, as someone who's always lived there, i just can´t imagine life without the resourcefulness and ammenities that the capitol offers. However, it doesn't mean that those are actually necessary. Most of us stay in Santiago for vert often dumb reasons and just doing what everyone does; fear. Life can be so many things, but i'm sure i don't want it to be depressing or stressful, so i'm "putting it all" to having a peaceful life somewhere else. I'm sure that's the case of many other people who live in Santiago. I'm sure i'll have to come back to Santiago sometime, and find myself stressed in the middle of the city chaos. Not really rooting for that lol.
I've been to your country after visiting Peru. I went to the town of Iquique. It's beautiful. I wanted to go down to Santiago and Rancagua, but my time was short.
Wow! Chile looks cool, it has it all! I didn't know that you could do skiing and go to the beach on the same day a look at the magnificent sunset, the capital Santiago and Valparaiso look pretty much to L.A, congrats Chileans you have built such an amazing country, greetings from Providencia German district of Evelyn Matthei.

A few years ago I had the opportunity to travel to Chile and visit the Patagonia in the southern countryside. I was so amazed by meeting the Chapa-la-pachala native tribe, they are so warm and lovely people!! Greetings from Montt Port, New Zealand
Great video, i would say the Chilean population has always been concentrated in the central region because its great for agriculture. When the country was industrialized people moved from the countryside to Santiago. Greetings from Chile!
Hi! I'm from Chile, born in the capital and now living in the southern region. There is a lot of social reasons for migrating in the country, young people migrate to the center and the capital to study, most of universities are there, but there is a lot of santiaguinos (like me) that end up migrating to the south for a better quality of life. Thanks for this video, it was so very well explained, I loved it!
Thanks, interesting as always! Bacpacked through Chile and Argentina in 1997, best trip of my life! Went from Tierra del Fuego to the Peru border. Chile is incredibly beautiful, in particular the Torres del Paine national park in the far south, glaciers right down to sea level, herds of wil guanacos (as in Argentina). Just one comment (from someone with a life-long geography addiction), it's actually only the south-western tip of West Australia that's Mediterranean in climate, probably less than 1/5 of the territory/state, hence the area so good for winter grain production, as well as great wines! Also, you missed out mentioning the south western tip of South Africa, which is also Mediterranean in climate (this is where I live). Lastly, I can suggest a holiday to Chile to anyone, much cheaper (still) than Europe, North America, etc but with as much (or more to offer).
love how you highlighted all of WA instead of just the south west of Australia for "Mediterranean climate". Trust me, as someone who has worked all over Western Australia, only like 15% of the state has a good climate
I live in Southern California and absolutely love our weather. It usually doesn't rain for 7 straight months of the year, with over 300 sunny dry low humidity days (no bugs). It is usually never too hot or too cold (no heater or Aircon necessary), just right with a cool ocean breeze. At night it always cools down, even in the middle of summer. I guess that's why we have 40 million people jammed in this little area. Is there any place in Australia that has weather similar to Southern California?
@@gracedagostino5231 the east coast (around Sydney), or where I live here in the south-west of Western Australia. We usually will have temperatures between 25 (77) and 35 (95) most of the year, and it only rains 5 or 6 months of the year. Only negative is that for about 3 out of every 10 years, we get freak heatwaves due to the El Niño and La Niña cycle he talked about, during which, temperatures can reach up to like 45 (113), like it did 2 years ago at Christmas, causing those massive fires to spread like crazy.
@@Benwut I personally have never been to Sydney, definitely want to visit, but my brother has been. He told me that he found Sydney far hotter and more humid than Los Angeles. He also traveled to Brisbane/Gold Coast/Sunshine Coast, he said that was hotter and even more humid than Sydney, sort of reminded him of our Florida.
@@gracedagostino5231 Yeah, sydney does get pretty humid (mainly due to the incredibly powerful easterly winds from the sea), but here in the South West, we have around 45% all year, which is just above average room humidity
Chile experienced the largest earthquake in human history in 1960, the earthquake in the city of Valdivia measuring 9.5 magnitude. It's strange that you didn't mention it haha
@@victorgarciaortiz5449 you can actually study Previous earthquakes by studying the ground, the oldest known earthquake was in 1920BC. The Chilean 9.5 is the biggest known history
I lived in "southern" Chile a few hours from the ferry to Chiloé and the climate is very agreeable. Both cooler in summer and warmer in winter than to where I lived in the states(SC). I don't think that is a big factor. Even in Chiloe the climate is pretty mild. I think it boils down to people need work and the biggest cities are in central Chile. Also even at almost 20 million people we are not short of apt places to live. Chile has massive swaths of country side and wilderness as well as reservations. It helps that there aren't massive sprawling suburbs though. Cities here a very compact relatively speaking to the US.
The Andes is one of the 4 mountain ranges Chile has (Andes, Sal/Salt, Domeyko, Costa/Coast). It doesn't matter where you are standing, you will always see a mountain range nearby. They are a really important reference points for us! (in terms of where is the north or south)
I found a little mistake on the map showing the Atacama area during the post independence period, with the chilean border starting by the current Coquimbo region. The current Atacama administrative region was always recognized as part of Chile, the disputed area with Bolivia was between Taltal and the Loa river.
We have been on bad terms with Bolivian people and government for centuries, but there's not tension likely to scale to war. Peruvian people don't hate us as much, and politically we are on good terms as far as I know, so war is unlikely to start with them either.
Nor really, it's more like a couple of kids in a playground throwing words and names but they all know that no punches will be thrown. They still remember we reached the Peruvian capital and took their lions statues over to one of our subways entrances lmao. And the Bolivian navy trains in a pool. Kinda like that. Chileans say Bolivians have no sea and Peruvians eat pigeons. Peruvians and Bolivians say Chileans don't know how to speak. Kinda Xbox like toxicity
@@ipanesm That's not so bad. Where I'm from, us & our neighbours have had 3 full-scale wars. Now we have nukes, and we still come close to having a 4th war (this time, with nukes -- India and Pakistan). Are you from Chile? Is the government able to to handle inflation and illegal migration well? I heard that Santiago has neighbourhoods that have much higher crime, and there's issues with illegal migration.
Geoff with Chile you need to take climate into consideration too. Chile has EVERY KNOWN CLIMATE in the world from Tropical Desert to Temperate/Subpolar Rainforest , Tundra, Icecap. The only climates Chile doesn't have are Taiga (continental subarctic) and Tropical Rainforest. Central Chile has a subtropical Mediterranean climate which is why it's so populated. Northern Chile is mostly desert and Southern Chile is mostly wet, windswept, rainforest ranging from temperate around Puerto Montt to subpolar around Punta Arenas.
Actually, Chile has no continental climate at all. Everything is just too close to the ocean, so all of the Chilean weather is softened by the influence of the sea. The closest to continental weather in Chile could be found at Coyhaique, I think. But it is still considered as oceanic. And about the tropical rainforest. Easter Island has a tropical weather. It has no rainforest, that's right, but it is because of the severe deforestation in the past centuries rather than a climate issue. By the way, if I said something wrong, I'd be happy to learn :)
@@WesternPuchuu Easter Island had a subtropical forest and yearly precipitation similar to any city on the mid Atlantic coast like NYC, DC, Richmond, and Virginia Beach - around 40-50 inches a year. As for continental climates ( D - climates according to the Koppen system) - they are largely absent from the southern hemisphere. There are a few small pockets of continental climate in the Andean highlands but the only known continental climate (in this case Dfb - humid continental with warm summers) would be on the Otego plateau on New Zealand's South Island. And even there it is a marginal climate - more of a transition between Dfb (humid continental) and Cfb (temperate oceanic) as the avg temp for the coldest month (July) is still over freezing at 2C (36 F).
Chile does not have any tropical climate, the desert is dry, even hotter and drier than Arizona, and the rainforest is cold, as in Washington state or western Canada. Easter Island, which is 3,700 km away had a tropical forest hundreds of years ago.
Hey Geoff, there are some parts of the information that are not true. First, Chile was never a "kingdom" in the official papers but "Captaincy General of Chile", which was less than the "Viceroyalty of Peru" or the "Viceroyalty of La Plata". Second, the main reason most people live in Stgo is because this is a centralized country, which makes the city a small "Chile" ("Santiago es Chile") and hinders the development of the rest of the country. For example, all businesses HQ are located in Stgo, despite the region where their operations are. Also, and most importantly, the fact that Stgo is the main and (almost) only "big" city makes all services to be complete here. For instance, there's always been a shortage of specialist doctors in other cities, which forces people to come to Stgo to get the treatment they need. Also, there are few universities in other cities or, at least, a lower number compared to Stgo., which again makes many people to come to Stgo to study at the oldest and most socially prestigious universities* that are located in Stgo (before the dictatorship, Universidad de Chile had campuses along the country, but they were closed and disbanded by the junta). Another example is that the political decisions are usually made here, even though the parliament is located in Valparaíso, and a lot of its members live in Stgo. Actually, there have been cases of senators from Stgo becoming candidates in other regions of the country (shame!). These are just a few examples of how this country works and why a lot of people who are not from Santiago, hate Stgo. Finally, why does your video say that we are the "richest country in South America"? As far as I know, that could easily be Brazil or Argentina, o even Venezuela because of the quantity of natural resources they have. I don't know why we look rich, but the reality here is NOT what GDP or other indicators show. People here pay for EVERY.DAMN.THING. There's no such thing as social security or public services, everything's private. If you have a health problem, the only way to not pay is by being homeless or part of a certain group of people that use tha public system. I am a user of FONASA (healthcare system) and I have to pay for everything I do (and rightly so as I am not homeless or very poor) even if there's a part of it that the state finances. But, as usual, public hospitals and healthcare centers are not known for their availability of staff, options for doctors' appointments or modern facilities. So, private healthcare centers are usually the places to go if you need an appointment for the next day, and the private health insurance is usually considered a much better option, but guess what? It's expensive! And this is only one of the examples of how private services have taken over the country. Last but not least, most people here have access to credit cards, and that's how the economy moves and looks so great abroad: it's because we are in debt! The gap between the lowest and highest salary is outrageously wide. This is just a tiny bit of the whole situation in Chile that people abroad don't get to see. *this is debatable, but historically speaking, this has been the case with Universidad de Chile, Pontificia Univeesidad Católica and Universidad de Santiago de Chile.
I am becoming addicted to your videos. learning about aspects of geography I have been unaware of all my life. Thanks for educating newbies like me to the world of geographic consequences.
Great, concise video. I'm a proud Chilean! I've lived most of my life in Santiago, and I just can't get enough of its geography. Some people think it's horrible, but common!! We're surrounded by the most amazing mountains; white and crisp in winter and so colorful during the sunsets in summer. Having a mediterranean weather means they're dry for a big chunk of the year, but when spring comes the hills become neon green, with a plethora of yellow, purple and pink flowers. The Mapocho river is a mere stream, sure, but it still cuts the city in an interesting way, and it has lots of vegetable life in the west and eastern parts of the city. And I'm glad in the last years many municipalities have replaced grass lawns in public places with drought-resistant plants, which are actually super beautiful. As you say, the fact that Chile is so narrow is weird, but it has a lot of advantages. I can get to the ski centers near Santiago (which you can easily spot from the eastern part of the city!) OR go to the beach, both in 1 hour by car. That's amazing! The southern part of the country is MINDBLOWING. Especially the regions of Los Lagos, Los Ríos and Aysén are gorgeous with their numerous lakes, volcanoes, fjords and greenery. Plus the fact that the German migration there produced a very unique style of arquitecture, which makes it look like you're in towns in the Swiss Alps (see Puerto Varas).
You should put international measurements beside the American ones. Because, you know, people outside of the USA don't get these miles, feet, gallons, inches, farenheit stuff very well. Nice video anyway. I've been to Santiago, Valparaíso and Viña del Mar. It's a beautiful place and the capital is one of the cleanest places I've ever been, and also very safe.
Convert. It's pretty arrogant to demand others change to suit you. Especially when it's so easy to do the conversions yourself. I don't whine when a British TH-camr uses metric. He's American, he uses imperial.
@@tarride safe, i doubt it. There is a huge amount of thieves, robbers, drug dealers, etc. Very insecure country, specially in Santiago. About if its clean, nope. Cities like Valparaiso is really dirty with dog sh*t on everywhere, non main streets are filled with urine and stinks horrible.
@@orusandornots1915 1 mile = 1.60934 km. Yeah, super easy. Despite that, I agree that the imperial system shouldn't be replaced, since the video creator is American and he has the right to use the system that's natural to him. However, using both systems at the same time is not a bad idea. 👀
One important consideration (from a Chilean): Chile was never technically a Kingdom but a "Captaincy" dependent on the Viceroyalty of Perú because it wasn't easy to settle there giving climate conditions and the continuous war with the Mapuche and other indigenous communities. We didn't have important gold mines as Perú or Colombia but still it required a lot of manpower and investment from the Spanish Crown. For this reason, it was never easy to have any control of land over the Andes mountains and "lost" its Argentinean territories after the Bourbon Reforms that created the Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata.
@@deepb249 they lost the war after 400 years (thanks to a smart move from Spain: introduce alcohol parties), but they still live in Chile (and Argentina, they actually come from there after lost territories against the Tehuelche). Is estimated that over 40% of Chilean population is a mix between Spanish and Mapuche people.
@@felipeiglesias wow! Alcohol parties!! But they mixed with Spanish and are in that 40 percent of Chileans! Do Chileans admit they have Mapuche blood in them? Or they say their ancestors came from Spain? Are there any 100 percent Mapuche left in Chile and Argentina? What do they look like? Like American Indians? Red skin?
@@deepb249 Is not that hard to find it in the internet, now they are terrorist in the south part of the country, and no, nobody really care to much about being of one race except a couple thousend people
@@deepb249 About people admiting being mixblood usually there is a general concensus of we are all mixed blood of mapuche and Spanish in some degree, some times you can find some jerks that will say they arent Mapuche or Inca decendant but those are seems as ignorant people, becouse unless you are from some very specific politician family (and even then is very questionable talk about being 100% spanish decendant) you are in some degree Mapuche or Inca. About Mapuche people there is still communities living in south of the countrie and try to preserve all their culture and traditions. I dont know wath do you mean with how they look like, but if you are talking about skin color, yeah North American Indian are a good reference. About facial details is tricky becouse "Mapuche" mean "People of the earth" and is used to talk about a lot of smaller comunities/tribes that werent unificated but shared a set of traditions, religious beliefs and langauge so there is a good variation between faces. Also there is evidence that polinesic people (Maori specifically) cruzed the pacific and reached the coast of the center and part of the south of Chile around the XIII century and mixed with them, so we also share some some slight traits with them too.
Been to Santiago, Valparaiso, Viña del Mar and Los Andes in the Centro region. It feels like you're in Mediterranean Europe in terms of level of development. Amazing country.
Loco, no podis decir eso!! 🤦 Si bien se agradece la intensión del video, tiene una cantidad de errores geograficos de mapas, años y razones!!! Estudia un poco más la historia y geografía chilena para que no seas shileno sino chileno
Great video but there are neccesary some corrections to make. The mapuche territory was never part of the spanish empire. In fact, between the mapuche people and the spanish they make parlaments betwwen 1641 and 1809 and when Chile became independent , the newly chilean goberment make a treaty with them in 1826. I was just in 1881, that the mapuche territory was incorporated to the Chilean territory, the same time that Argentina got their portion of land of the patagonia , that was also part of the mapuche wallmapu. Untill that year, all the patagonia was not part of argentina or Chile.
@@silversolver7809 I am just goofing around SS. Personally, I don't like the metric system as I grew up with feet and inches and all that. After having run a few 10K races though I am coming over to the metric side almost as slowly as I ran those 10Ks. Thanks for the note. By the way, I dated a girl once who was from Bolivia and they are still pissed that Chile took their ocean views.
It´s fascinating the ammount of content that has been popping off recently about non-Chilean youtubers and so and their positive opinion of our country, wish that we could see it that way too. Thank you!
Hi! This appeared on my home page, i'm from Magallanes Region, i really liked your video. In the future, you could do one about the migration in Chile before the panamá canal was built. Before that, people from the atlantic had to cross through the Magellan strait to reach the pacific, which led to an insane development and wealth of Punta Arenas in the XIX and early XX Century besides the european influence in the arquitecture. Greetings from PUQ, Cl
While in the US Navy I served aboard nuclear submarines. One of the two subs I served on toured South America with ports of call in multiple countries. It’s been over thirty years since we stopped in Chile and to this day my fondest memories are from Chile. If there were a country in South America to expatriate I would chose Chile.
Good decision. As a Chilean I tell you that we are unique in South America. In the sense that we are isolated from the typical "Latino" stereotype, (it is not that we are not) but the Andes mountain range separates us from Argentina and to the north the Atacama desert, which is the most arid in the world separate us from Peru and Bolivia (not counting McMurdo dry valleys in Antarctica) and if we go south we will find Antarctica. So that distance from our neighboring countries shapes a unique and different personality compared to other countries in the region. It is like Japan in Asia, being an island isolated from its neighbors, they have different characteristics.

As a Chilean, I want to add the fact that the pandemic led to an increase of remote working, which also led to emigration from Santiago to the south and/or the coast, looking for a better quality of life. Yes, Santiago is the economic center of the country, but its lifestyle is just overwhelming. I moved to Santiago for educational reasons, but when I finished my courses, I quickly moved back to my hometown (a bit north from the capital) and then moved again, to the South, specifically the beautiful city of Valdivia. I don't regret it at all, and I hope i won't be moving to Santiago again ever.
Valdivia is probably one of the most beautiful cities in Chile. Wish I could move there or to other nice cities in the south. I don't like Santiago's weather.

I lived in Chile for about 2 years right in the heart of Santiago. Santiago is really like a European city more so than other cities in South America. And it's great because you're within 3 hours of the coast and within an hour and a half of the mountains so if your so inclined you could snow ski and go to the beach in the same weekend. Wonderful rich culture and people that couldn't be more friendly.
There are two errors in this video. First: Spanish Chile reached what is now the province of Antofagasta (without counting the city of Antofagasta). Second: you showed the old map of the Biobío region, now it is divided into two regions, the Biobío region and the Ñuble region.
Really nice video, thanks. However, one error: the original coastal area that belonged to Bolivia was way smaller.Peru also used to have an even smaller portion of the far north of the actual Chile's territory.
Exactly, Perú used to include Arica and Iquique before the war (we lost it by getting involved). That part wasn't Bolivia, the part that Bolivia lost was smaller. Just check out any pre-war map, all Peruvians learn this in history class.
Santiago it's a little bit unsafe nowadays due to the beautiful caribean cultural exchange 🙄 aka venezuelan/colombian/dominican inmigration. I suggest you to use the subway (metro ♦️♦️♦️) wich it's pretty neat or Uber to move around the city, don't take taxis at the airport because some of them will try to scam you, use the van (transfer) service, or the buses, it's much more secure and cheap. Buses and public transport will drop you from the airport to "Intermodal Pajaritos" where is a subway station, from there You can reach almost any interesting point from our capital. The less time you spend at Santiago Centro (downtown) the less probability of getting robed.
It's not. Dirty, unsafe and generally quite grey, quite often clogged by smog; great food tho. The nice bits of Chile are far from their major cities, you gotta head south
Great video, as a Santiago citizen I''ve got to say that Mediterrean climate it's going backwards and it's becoming very arid. To me the best climate it's in the south, with more rain and lower temperatures.

I hosted a young Chilean grad school couple (husband and wife) for four months in my home near San Francisco. They were working with wildlife populations here, both were already veterinarians. They taught me all these fascinating facts about their beautiful country, and more. I hadn’t known, for example, that the central region, around Santiago, has a similar geography to California, with a lower coastal mountain range and a much higher inland mountain range, separated by a temperate great valley, with a Mediterranean climate. The agriculture is quite similar to ours in Central California, too. One big difference is the underlying tectonics, Chile overlies an active plate boundary subduction zone and California a strike-slip plate boundary. (I couldn’t resist adding this, I’m a geologist). Someday I will go visit my Chilean friends in Santiago.
As a geologist you'll know about the Valdivia Earthquake in Chile The 1960 Valdivia earthquake and tsunami or the Great Chilean earthquake on 22 May 1960 was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded. Various studies have placed it at 9.4-9.6 on the moment magnitude scale. It occurred in the afternoon, and lasted for approximately 10 minutes. 10 minutes! Yikes!
Yes! I've heard some people from California that Chile is like California on steroids.
due to this today´s wine market in chile and california and its quality of wines are pretty similar today!
@@cristoybaal not really California wine industry can only produce white wines, California doesn't have Mediterranean weather to get "price winner" red wines (California can produce some wines but they won't win first place )
thats why for example Rothschild wine is in chile france Italy and Mediterranean islands
There is many documentary about weather and new technology of drones that can map the best soils and weathers (and Cali is not there) they can do good white wine tho, but Not more than that
Be careful, there are A LOT OF ROBBERS

I worked on Chile as a field geologist. 15 seasons over 30 years. I loved it. The people, the landscape, the cuisine. If not for serious medical problems, i would retire there. Besides minerals, let's not forget a booming wine industry, fruit exports, fish, and seafood. Within the sotherrn part of the country, lumber, dairy, and wool are huge economic sources. Not to mention tourism. Lovely place.

@@hiwelcometochillis2579 At one point, I was looking to work from Chile as a digital nomad (I work for a US tech startup, Chile's timezone overlaps well).
I was apprehensive about the security situation (illegal migration from conflict areas) and the language barrier (unique dialect of Spanish that seemed harder to learn).
@@Qasibr yes illegal migration went crazy (introducing new crimes before 2020 there were just pickpockets like in all countries, but now you can see drvgs gangs from other countries that do terrible for crime rates) illegal migration went crazy in 2020, and even Chilean high demand professionals are emigrating out of chile (because bad government that is doing the same politics of Ukraine president that was and actor?

Working in chilean companies I’ve seen a lot of chileans doing the same and going off to work from other countries, specially since the pandemic now that jobs are easier to do fully online.
If you do think about it again, then best of luck, im sure youd enjoy it a lot and the language barrier isnt that hard to deal with if you immerse yourself and try to talk to a lot of people and have them help you from time to time
In length, Chile would extend from San Francisco to New York but, climate-wise, from the Northern Mexican deserts to the frozen Klondike in Alaska. This last comparison would situate the Chilean demographic center in California.
oh god
For the Spaniard conquerors, it was the city of Concepcion and not Santiago which had to be the capital of the Kingdom of Chile. But Concepcion was too close to the frontier with the Mapuche people, so it was a war zone and, besides to that, the city was destroyed by an earthquake not so much time after its foundation. Eventually the Spaniards decided that Santiago was more suitable to be the main city.
Not really, Santiago was always going to be the capital and it was founded as that (it was actually an important urban center for the natives and the Incas before the Spanish arrived). Concepción became important only because it was close to the frontier and was the military capital of the country where the permanent army had its center of operations. The first Real Audiencia was established in Concepción because of that, but Santiago was always the main population center and shortly afterwards the Audiencia was relocated to the capital. Most, if not all of the governors (save some exceptions like Bravo de Saravia and Hurtado de Mendoza), performed the rituals of their position in Santiago and in the churches of the capital.
@@Agora0000 thanks for the clarification
Well Concepción is the 2nd largest city in Chile.
@@Agora0000 that is not true, la imperial was planned to be the capital but it was destroyed by like the seven cities of the south, next to it like all the 17th century the gobernors lived in concepcion, it was when changed the dinasty to borbon santiago got more importance. Even so that the palace of the gobernor was in decay in santiago before the relocation
Tampoco es verdad, la imperial iba a ser la capital, de ahi el nombre, pero como los indigenas quemaron las "7 ciudades arriba", cambio a santiago, pero en realidad el gobernador como capitan general, vivio casi todo el siglo 17 en concepcion, cambiando oficialmente a capital un par de veces la cabeza obispal de la concepcion
I recall watching a video on how the forests at the very southern tip of Chile have some super ancient species that used to live in Antarctica before it got frozen over, but survived in Chile because those islands shifted north before the climate changed. It's a really interesting country biologically too, not just geographically.
That's so interesting, as a Chilean I had no I idea, I asume you are refering to Araucarias, those trees are not only old as an species but also take like 400-500 years to grow to the sizes you find in Chile.
Imagine some bussinesmen burning those native forest to plant trees they can sell.
Mapuche people still try to protect those places.
We are still discovering new species every year, and experts says that we haven't scratched it yet
The southernmost part of Chile is Cape Horn (Cabo de Hornos en español). Saw pictures and would really love to visit there, along with the rest of Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia. To get to Cape Horn, I believe you have to be on a cruise that stops there, and only during their summer months (December, January, and February).
@@AndreUrzua1 I think they are talking about the whole Valdivian rainforest, including araucarias. But still Araucarias are magnificent.
I traveled in Chile for over two weeks back in 2019. Though I spent nearly half the time in the Central region around Santiago and Valparaiso areas, I did get the opportunity to go north to the deserts and south to the temperate rain forests. I agree its a fascinating country!
There are no tropical forests in Chile
"The Valdivian jungle" is not temperate at all, its temperature is around 35.6f to 53f
@@lizester2786 temperate is the official term used to by ecologists in this instance refers to forests that receive at least 200cm of rain a year but are not hot or warm all year. (though Valdivian rain forest gets much more).
I stayed in Puerto Varas for two nights and did a tour of Perez Rosales NP where we made three stops where we got out (short hike at Salto de petrohue, Lago Todos Los Santos, and visiting the ski area of Volcan Osorno.
This was in WINTER (August) and it was raining (drizzling) part of the day not snowing.
Just because it maybe chilly for someone coming from a warm climate doesn’t mean it’s not classified as temperate rainforest.
@@bhg123ful Chile does not have any tropical climate, the desert is dry, even hotter and drier than Arizona, and the rainforest is cold, as in Washington state or western Canada. Easter Island, which is 3,700 km away had a tropical forest hundreds of years ago
@@lizester2786 I’m a physical geography and earth science professor - I know these things. I went to Chile knowing about and wanting to experience something like the entire west coast of North America but “up-side down” and in the southern hemisphere.
The Atacama is yes., the driest and most barren desert I’m the world, I went to Antofagasta and went to the La Portada sea arch. However it’s not necessarily the hottest as it gets fog due to the cold current.
Yes, the Los Lagos region is like Washington state.
I am making a point to visit southern hemisphere locations that have similar environments to Western North America.
I deliberately went to Chile to experience and visit all latitudinal environments!
Secondarily, I visited Chile as it’s a relatively economically well off country and relatively politically stable to travel solo without any tour programs.
Generally speaking, most parts of Latin America that are tropical, with the exception of Costa Rica have various health and safety issues one should be aware of and prepare for or avoid.
As a Chilean and a geographer, the main reason is the "intermediate depression", a valley parallel to the coast similar to the one in California. It contains most of the flat land in the country and it's where Santiago and most of the agriculture is. That, and centralizing policies that discourage moving to more distant territories.
What parts of chile do you think are the most interesting and rural outside santiago/major cities?
@@sincity5268 So places that are both interesting and rural? Probably the area around Osorno. Or Chiloé.

As a Chilean, I comprehend the geological and climatic factors influencing the situation, but the true underlying reason is primarily related to job opportunities and economic considerations.
As a Chilean loved that you made a video about our country, the truth is, not many chileans like Santiago, is crowded, too much traffic, and very polluted, in fact a lot of us dream of living on the south or northern part of our country, but we are a very small country in essence, and you can only find good health services, jobs, education, etc in Santiago… with the pandemic and remote work a lot of people moved to other cities and towns, but unfortunately if you live outside Santiago you will likely have to be traveling with some frequency to the capital
I live in Santiago but frequently travel to Los Lagos, and what he said about the climate is not really true anymore because of all the pollution. Summers in Santiago are unbearably hot nowadays. All the traffic creates a cloud of smog and dust that makes everything dirty. Especially with the forest fires this past summer, the heat has been awful. I want to move to the south soon.
Edit: I think you can still find good health services in the south, there are many German clinics. It's more expensive, though, so if you don't have a lot of money, I suppose you can find good services for cheaper in Santiago.
it's crazy! i was born and raised in Santiago. I'm 20 y/o and last year my dad moved to Viña del Mar and i tried to do the same but it was unbearable since i had to travel so much to Santiago anyways. If i needed any specic item e.g car parts or even clothing, i just had to go back to Santiago. Actually, it was pretty depressing going back to the mess and chaos of the city. This week i got a job in Puero Natales (Punta Arenas) and i'm so damn excited to leave the crazyness of population lol. That just drives me to the personal conclusion that even though Santiago is great for economic reasons, and many times necessary, as someone who's always lived there, i just can´t imagine life without the resourcefulness and ammenities that the capitol offers. However, it doesn't mean that those are actually necessary. Most of us stay in Santiago for vert often dumb reasons and just doing what everyone does; fear. Life can be so many things, but i'm sure i don't want it to be depressing or stressful, so i'm "putting it all" to having a peaceful life somewhere else. I'm sure that's the case of many other people who live in Santiago. I'm sure i'll have to come back to Santiago sometime, and find myself stressed in the middle of the city chaos. Not really rooting for that lol.

Thanks, interesting as always! Bacpacked through Chile and Argentina in 1997, best trip of my life! Went from Tierra del Fuego to the Peru border. Chile is incredibly beautiful, in particular the Torres del Paine national park in the far south, glaciers right down to sea level, herds of wil guanacos (as in Argentina). Just one comment (from someone with a life-long geography addiction), it's actually only the south-western tip of West Australia that's Mediterranean in climate, probably less than 1/5 of the territory/state, hence the area so good for winter grain production, as well as great wines! Also, you missed out mentioning the south western tip of South Africa, which is also Mediterranean in climate (this is where I live). Lastly, I can suggest a holiday to Chile to anyone, much cheaper (still) than Europe, North America, etc but with as much (or more to offer).

I lived in "southern" Chile a few hours from the ferry to Chiloé and the climate is very agreeable. Both cooler in summer and warmer in winter than to where I lived in the states(SC). I don't think that is a big factor. Even in Chiloe the climate is pretty mild. I think it boils down to people need work and the biggest cities are in central Chile. Also even at almost 20 million people we are not short of apt places to live. Chile has massive swaths of country side and wilderness as well as reservations. It helps that there aren't massive sprawling suburbs though. Cities here a very compact relatively speaking to the US.
The Andes is one of the 4 mountain ranges Chile has (Andes, Sal/Salt, Domeyko, Costa/Coast). It doesn't matter where you are standing, you will always see a mountain range nearby. They are a really important reference points for us! (in terms of where is the north or south)

I found a little mistake on the map showing the Atacama area during the post independence period, with the chilean border starting by the current Coquimbo region.

We have been on bad terms with Bolivian people and government for centuries, but there's not tension likely to scale to war.

Are you from Chile? Is the government able to to handle inflation and illegal migration well? I heard that Santiago has neighbourhoods that have much higher crime, and there's issues with illegal migration.
Geoff with Chile you need to take climate into consideration too. Chile has EVERY KNOWN CLIMATE in the world from Tropical Desert to Temperate/Subpolar Rainforest , Tundra, Icecap. The only climates Chile doesn't have are Taiga (continental subarctic) and Tropical Rainforest.
Central Chile has a subtropical Mediterranean climate which is why it's so populated. Northern Chile is mostly desert and Southern Chile is mostly wet, windswept, rainforest ranging from temperate around Puerto Montt to subpolar around Punta Arenas.
Actually, Chile has no continental climate at all. Everything is just too close to the ocean, so all of the Chilean weather is softened by the influence of the sea. The closest to continental weather in Chile could be found at Coyhaique, I think. But it is still considered as oceanic.
And about the tropical rainforest. Easter Island has a tropical weather. It has no rainforest, that's right, but it is because of the severe deforestation in the past centuries rather than a climate issue.
By the way, if I said something wrong, I'd be happy to learn :)
@@WesternPuchuu Easter Island had a subtropical forest and yearly precipitation similar to any city on the mid Atlantic coast like NYC, DC, Richmond, and Virginia Beach - around 40-50 inches a year.
As for continental climates ( D - climates according to the Koppen system) - they are largely absent from the southern hemisphere. There are a few small pockets of continental climate in the Andean highlands but the only known continental climate (in this case Dfb - humid continental with warm summers) would be on the Otego plateau on New Zealand's South Island. And even there it is a marginal climate - more of a transition between Dfb (humid continental) and Cfb (temperate oceanic) as the avg temp for the coldest month (July) is still over freezing at 2C (36 F).

I just saw some info here and looked up villa Del Mar and Valparaiso, beautiful places!
@@mauricioalvarez7568 Valparaíso is more like a giant urban toilet than a city.
Hey Geoff, there are some parts of the information that are not true. First, Chile was never a "kingdom" in the official papers but "Captaincy General of Chile", which was less than the "Viceroyalty of Peru" or the "Viceroyalty of La Plata". Second, the main reason most people live in Stgo is because this is a centralized country, which makes the city a small "Chile" ("Santiago es Chile") and hinders the development of the rest of the country. For example, all businesses HQ are located in Stgo, despite the region where their operations are. Also, and most importantly, the fact that Stgo is the main and (almost) only "big" city makes all services to be complete here. For instance, there's always been a shortage of specialist doctors in other cities, which forces people to come to Stgo to get the treatment they need. Also, there are few universities in other cities or, at least, a lower number compared to Stgo., which again makes many people to come to Stgo to study at the oldest and most socially prestigious universities* that are located in Stgo (before the dictatorship, Universidad de Chile had campuses along the country, but they were closed and disbanded by the junta). Another example is that the political decisions are usually made here, even though the parliament is located in Valparaíso, and a lot of its members live in Stgo. Actually, there have been cases of senators from Stgo becoming candidates in other regions of the country (shame!). These are just a few examples of how this country works and why a lot of people who are not from Santiago, hate Stgo.
Finally, why does your video say that we are the "richest country in South America"? As far as I know, that could easily be Brazil or Argentina, o even Venezuela because of the quantity of natural resources they have. I don't know why we look rich, but the reality here is NOT what GDP or other indicators show. People here pay for EVERY.DAMN.THING. There's no such thing as social security or public services, everything's private. If you have a health problem, the only way to not pay is by being homeless or part of a certain group of people that use tha public system. I am a user of FONASA (healthcare system) and I have to pay for everything I do (and rightly so as I am not homeless or very poor) even if there's a part of it that the state finances. But, as usual, public hospitals and healthcare centers are not known for their availability of staff, options for doctors' appointments or modern facilities. So, private healthcare centers are usually the places to go if you need an appointment for the next day, and the private health insurance is usually considered a much better option, but guess what? It's expensive! And this is only one of the examples of how private services have taken over the country.
Last but not least, most people here have access to credit cards, and that's how the economy moves and looks so great abroad: it's because we are in debt! The gap between the lowest and highest salary is outrageously wide.
This is just a tiny bit of the whole situation in Chile that people abroad don't get to see.
*this is debatable, but historically speaking, this has been the case with Universidad de Chile, Pontificia Univeesidad Católica and Universidad de Santiago de Chile.
"Kingdom of Chile", what? who was supposed to be the King 👑?
I am becoming addicted to your videos. learning about aspects of geography I have been unaware of all my life. Thanks for educating newbies like me to the world of geographic consequences.
Great, concise video. I'm a proud Chilean!
I've lived most of my life in Santiago, and I just can't get enough of its geography. Some people think it's horrible, but common!! We're surrounded by the most amazing mountains; white and crisp in winter and so colorful during the sunsets in summer. Having a mediterranean weather means they're dry for a big chunk of the year, but when spring comes the hills become neon green, with a plethora of yellow, purple and pink flowers. The Mapocho river is a mere stream, sure, but it still cuts the city in an interesting way, and it has lots of vegetable life in the west and eastern parts of the city. And I'm glad in the last years many municipalities have replaced grass lawns in public places with drought-resistant plants, which are actually super beautiful.
As you say, the fact that Chile is so narrow is weird, but it has a lot of advantages. I can get to the ski centers near Santiago (which you can easily spot from the eastern part of the city!) OR go to the beach, both in 1 hour by car. That's amazing!
The southern part of the country is MINDBLOWING. Especially the regions of Los Lagos, Los Ríos and Aysén are gorgeous with their numerous lakes, volcanoes, fjords and greenery. Plus the fact that the German migration there produced a very unique style of arquitecture, which makes it look like you're in towns in the Swiss Alps (see Puerto Varas).
Beautifully written
I agree, the southern regions of Chile are the most beautiful and mesmerising ones.
Chile seems like an amazing country. Greetings from Estacion Central, Haitizuela.
You should put international measurements beside the American ones. Because, you know, people outside of the USA don't get these miles, feet, gallons, inches, farenheit stuff very well. Nice video anyway. I've been to Santiago, Valparaíso and Viña del Mar. It's a beautiful place and the capital is one of the cleanest places I've ever been, and also very safe.
Cleanest and safe?
I did not think Santiago was clean at all. One of the more dirty places I've been to.
Convert. It's pretty arrogant to demand others change to suit you. Especially when it's so easy to do the conversions yourself. I don't whine when a British TH-camr uses metric. He's American, he uses imperial.
@@tarride safe, i doubt it. There is a huge amount of thieves, robbers, drug dealers, etc. Very insecure country, specially in Santiago.
About if its clean, nope. Cities like Valparaiso is really dirty with dog sh*t on everywhere, non main streets are filled with urine and stinks horrible.
@@orusandornots1915 1 mile = 1.60934 km. Yeah, super easy.
Despite that, I agree that the imperial system shouldn't be replaced, since the video creator is American and he has the right to use the system that's natural to him.
However, using both systems at the same time is not a bad idea. 👀
Amazing country. Regards from chi~yang, Nuble.
One important consideration (from a Chilean): Chile was never technically a Kingdom but a "Captaincy" dependent on the Viceroyalty of Perú because it wasn't easy to settle there giving climate conditions and the continuous war with the Mapuche and other indigenous communities. We didn't have important gold mines as Perú or Colombia but still it required a lot of manpower and investment from the Spanish Crown. For this reason, it was never easy to have any control of land over the Andes mountains and "lost" its Argentinean territories after the Bourbon Reforms that created the Viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata.
What happened to Mapuche people?
@@deepb249 they lost the war after 400 years (thanks to a smart move from Spain: introduce alcohol parties), but they still live in Chile (and Argentina, they actually come from there after lost territories against the Tehuelche). Is estimated that over 40% of Chilean population is a mix between Spanish and Mapuche people.
@@felipeiglesias wow! Alcohol parties!! But they mixed with Spanish and are in that 40 percent of Chileans! Do Chileans admit they have Mapuche blood in them? Or they say their ancestors came from Spain? Are there any 100 percent Mapuche left in Chile and Argentina? What do they look like? Like American Indians? Red skin?
@@deepb249 Is not that hard to find it in the internet, now they are terrorist in the south part of the country, and no, nobody really care to much about being of one race except a couple thousend people
@@deepb249 About people admiting being mixblood usually there is a general concensus of we are all mixed blood of mapuche and Spanish in some degree, some times you can find some jerks that will say they arent Mapuche or Inca decendant but those are seems as ignorant people, becouse unless you are from some very specific politician family (and even then is very questionable talk about being 100% spanish decendant) you are in some degree Mapuche or Inca.
About Mapuche people there is still communities living in south of the countrie and try to preserve all their culture and traditions. I dont know wath do you mean with how they look like, but if you are talking about skin color, yeah North American Indian are a good reference. About facial details is tricky becouse "Mapuche" mean "People of the earth" and is used to talk about a lot of smaller comunities/tribes that werent unificated but shared a set of traditions, religious beliefs and langauge so there is a good variation between faces. Also there is evidence that polinesic people (Maori specifically) cruzed the pacific and reached the coast of the center and part of the south of Chile around the XIII century and mixed with them, so we also share some some slight traits with them too.

Such rich culture and geography! I really hope to visit Chile by the summer. Greetings from High Bridge, UK! 😍
Great video but there are neccesary some corrections to make. The mapuche territory was never part of the spanish empire. In fact, between the mapuche people and the spanish they make parlaments betwwen 1641 and 1809 and when Chile became independent , the newly chilean goberment make a treaty with them in 1826. I was just in 1881, that the mapuche territory was incorporated to the Chilean territory, the same time that Argentina got their portion of land of the patagonia , that was also part of the mapuche wallmapu. Untill that year, all the patagonia was not part of argentina or Chile.
Yeah he forget to include that information. Even patagonin gerritory, which happens in the pacific war. Though, it was a good summary
Please alongside the imperial measures could you put the metric too? It would be very useful for non-americans
Yeah but Americans make up 4% of the world population. So obviously everyone needs to adapt to them.
95% of the world using metric system: 💀
@@AdistuffRBX So?!
@@macbeavers6938 So any TH-camr wanting to grow and keep hir audience needs to use metric.
@@silversolver7809 I am just goofing around SS. Personally, I don't like the metric system as I grew up with feet and inches and all that. After having run a few 10K races though I am coming over to the metric side almost as slowly as I ran those 10Ks. Thanks for the note. By the way, I dated a girl once who was from Bolivia and they are still pissed that Chile took their ocean views.
It´s fascinating the ammount of content that has been popping off recently about non-Chilean youtubers and so and their positive opinion of our country, wish that we could see it that way too. Thank you!
I feel Honoured given that I’m Chilean! Thank you for talking about my country
Hi! This appeared on my home page, i'm from Magallanes Region, i really liked your video. In the future, you could do one about the migration in Chile before the panamá canal was built. Before that, people from the atlantic had to cross through the Magellan strait to reach the pacific, which led to an insane development and wealth of Punta Arenas in the XIX and early XX Century besides the european influence in the arquitecture. Greetings from PUQ, Cl
wish i could visit this country one day !! greetings from rich town, jamaica
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the Western Cape. It also has a Mediterranean climate and is a beautiful and popular tourist destination.
or any other in the rest of Asia
@@Tadeoska Where can you find mediterranean climate in Asia? I mean, besides the mediterranean basin...
While in the US Navy I served aboard nuclear submarines. One of the two subs I served on toured South America with ports of call in multiple countries.
It’s been over thirty years since we stopped in Chile and to this day my fondest memories are from Chile.
If there were a country in South America to expatriate I would chose Chile.
Good decision.
As a Chilean I tell you that we are unique in South America. In the sense that we are isolated from the typical "Latino" stereotype, (it is not that we are not) but the Andes mountain range separates us from Argentina and to the north the Atacama desert, which is the most arid in the world separate us from Peru and Bolivia (not counting McMurdo dry valleys in Antarctica) and if we go south we will find Antarctica. So that distance from our neighboring countries shapes a unique and different personality compared to other countries in the region. It is like Japan in Asia, being an island isolated from its neighbors, they have different characteristics.
We are also the only Latin American country that have territory on 3 different continents (continental Chile is in America, Chilean Polynesia with Easter Island and its famous moais, and Antarctic sovereignty.
@@samvel_mmiii thé latino stereotype is Central America and Mexico.
That's where I am considering relocating to when I retire in 3 years.

You forgot Easter Island and Robertson Cruise Island as that actually fattens up chile if you include the ocean territory or ocean economic region along with the Arctic claims

I have heard a lot of good things about Chile, hoping forward to visit soon. Cheers from Providencia, Sweden.
As a Chilean, I want to add the fact that the pandemic led to an increase of remote working, which also led to emigration from Santiago to the south and/or the coast, looking for a better quality of life. Yes, Santiago is the economic center of the country, but its lifestyle is just overwhelming. I moved to Santiago for educational reasons, but when I finished my courses, I quickly moved back to my hometown (a bit north from the capital) and then moved again, to the South, specifically the beautiful city of Valdivia. I don't regret it at all, and I hope i won't be moving to Santiago again ever.
Valdivia is probably one of the most beautiful cities in Chile. Wish I could move there or to other nice cities in the south. I don't like Santiago's weather.

As a Chilean, I can say that Chile is the best country in Chile, yes, as you read it 🇨🇱🤝🏻
Most beautiful country in the world. Greetings from La Pincoya, Sweden.
I lived in Chile for about 2 years right in the heart of Santiago. Santiago is really like a European city more so than other cities in South America. And it's great because you're within 3 hours of the coast and within an hour and a half of the mountains so if your so inclined you could snow ski and go to the beach in the same weekend. Wonderful rich culture and people that couldn't be more friendly.
This video is amazing, thanks for it. Salutes from La Pintana, Denmark
There are two errors in this video. First: Spanish Chile reached what is now the province of Antofagasta (without counting the city of Antofagasta). Second: you showed the old map of the Biobío region, now it is divided into two regions, the Biobío region and the Ñuble region.
Such a beautiful country with amazing landscapes. Greetings from talcahuano, kenya🇰🇪
Really nice video, thanks. However, one error: the original coastal area that belonged to Bolivia was way smaller.Peru also used to have an even smaller portion of the far north of the actual Chile's territory.
Exactly, Perú used to include Arica and Iquique before the war (we lost it by getting involved). That part wasn't Bolivia, the part that Bolivia lost was smaller. Just check out any pre-war map, all Peruvians learn this in history class.
i wasnt aware that such an interesting country existed! ill make sure to tell all my friends about it. Greetings from Temuco, Netherlands.
Santiago would be an interesting place to visit someday.
We're waiting for ya
Santiago it's a little bit unsafe nowadays due to the beautiful caribean cultural exchange 🙄 aka venezuelan/colombian/dominican inmigration. I suggest you to use the subway (metro ♦️♦️♦️) wich it's pretty neat or Uber to move around the city, don't take taxis at the airport because some of them will try to scam you, use the van (transfer) service, or the buses, it's much more secure and cheap. Buses and public transport will drop you from the airport to "Intermodal Pajaritos" where is a subway station, from there You can reach almost any interesting point from our capital. The less time you spend at Santiago Centro (downtown) the less probability of getting robed.
It's not. Dirty, unsafe and generally quite grey, quite often clogged by smog; great food tho. The nice bits of Chile are far from their major cities, you gotta head south
it's the least interesting bit, you're better off going down south
Visit Concepción, you won't regret it.
Good video! I’m from Chile and i learned new things!
The southern coast of Chile is so chilly.😂lol
