America de Sud

America de Sud este un continent descoperit și populat de spanioli la sfârșitul Evului Mediu. Continentul amintește prin forma sa pe hartă de un triunghi și se întinde de la nord de ecuator până aproape de cercul polar al Antarcticii, remarcându-se prin trei forme diferite de relief: în vest, Anzii, care se înalță până la o altitudine de 6.959 m, formează de-a lungul coastei Pacificului o adevarata coloana vertebrală a întregului continent. Mare parte din nord și nord-est este acoperită de păduri tropicale, ce se întind pe Valea Amazonului și de-a lungul coastei Caraibilor. În sud, șesuri și pampasuri aride coboară spre punctul rece și stâncos al continentului, Cape Horn.
