Is Evo Morales still president? He's bretty cool.

Highest percentage of natives, shitty cuisine, and lithium production. Also women wearing funny miniature hats and chewing coca leaves.

They are the most amerindian nation in South America. For that, and for not having direct sea access, they are often mocked by the rest of the continent.

Literally've never seen one in my life. I only know that they have moved to Argentina by the millions in the last 30 years or so and that they're the reason why Argentina is an amerindian country beyond redemption

The peruvian Bolivian confederation was not an annexation

They build pic related unironically

cocaine is cheap there

>Plata o plomba.
Oh wait wrong country.

>They lose the Gran Chaco in a War against Paraguay in the XX century
Because Russians.

>Bolivian army had been trained and was led by German officers. In fact, the Chief of Staff of the Bolivian Army was a former German General Hans Kundt! The Bolivian army was a Latin version of the German army! They were dressed like the Germans, armed with German weapons, and trained and led by German officers! The majority of the Bolivian officer corps were combat experienced German officers. Paraguayans had nothing of a kind. So they recruited about 100 former Russian officers to fight for their country.

They have an active navy in titicaca lake and celebrate a national sea day LOL

OVER THE LINE

Indians who chew coca

Indians who were loyal subjects of the empire
Way more based than cr*ollo traitors

Simon Bolivar was from there.
