has led historically to major highs andlows in the economies of South American
states, often causing extreme politicalinstability. This is leading to efforts todiversify production to drive away fromstaying as economies dedicated to onemajor export.
South America is one of the mostbiodiverse continents on earth. SouthAmerica is home to many interesting andunique species of animals includingthe llama, anaconda, piranha,jaguar, vicua, and tapir. The Amazon rainforests
possess high biodiversity, containing amajor proportion of the Earth's species.
Brazil is the largest country in SouthAmerica, encompassing around half ofthe continent's land area and population.
The remaining countries and territoriesare divided among three regions:TheAndean States, the Guianasandthe Southern Cone.

Outlying islands[edit]
Traditionally, South America also
includes some of the nearbyislands.Aruba, Bonaire, Curaao, Trinidad, Tobago, and the federal dependenciesof Venezuelasit on the northerly SouthAmerican continental shelfand are oftenconsidered part of the continent. Geo-
politically, the island states and overseasterritories of the Caribbean are generallygrouped as a part or subregion of NorthAmerica, since they are more distant ontheCaribbean Plate, even though San
Andresand Providenciaare politicallypart of ColombiaandAves Islandiscontrolled by Venezuela.[5][11][12]

South America is believed to have beenjoined withAfricafrom the late PaleozoicErato the early Mesozoic Era, untilthe supercontinentPangaeabegan to riftand break apart about 225 million yearsago. Therefore, South America and
Africa share similar fossils and rocklayers.
South America is thought to have beenfirst inhabited by humans when peoplewere crossing the Bering Land
Bridge(now the Bering Strait) at least15,000 years ago from the territory that ispresent-day Russia. They migrated souththrough North America, and eventuallyreached South America throughthe Isthmus of Panama.

theAmazon Basin. Pottery evidencefurther suggests that manioc, whichremains a staple foodtoday, was beingcultivated as early as 2000 BC.[13]
By 2000 BC, many agrariancommunitieshad been settled throughout
theAndesand the surrounding regions.Fishing became a widespread practicealong the coast, helping establish fish asa primary source of food. Irrigationsystems were also developed at this
time, which aided in the rise ofan agrarian society.[13]
South American cultures begandomesticating llamas, vicuas, guanacos, and alpacasin the highlands of theAndes circa 3500 BC. Besides their useas sources of meat and wool, theseanimals were used for transportation ofgoods.[13]

Known as Tawantin suyu, and "the landof the four regions," in Quechua, the Inca
civilization was highly distinct anddeveloped. Inca rule extended to nearly ahundred linguistic or ethnic communities,some 9 to 14 million people connected bya 25,000 kilometer road system. Citieswere built with precise, unmatched
stonework, constructed over many levelsof mountain terrain. Terrace farmingwasa useful form of agriculture.
The Mapuchein Central and SouthernChile resisted the European and Chilean
settlers, waging theArauco Warfor morethan 300 years.

In 1494, Portugaland Spain, the twogreat maritime European powers of that
time, on the expectation of new landsbeing discovered in the west, signedthe Treaty of Tordesillas, by which theyagreed, with the support of the Pope, thatall the land outside Europe should be anexclusive duopolybetween the two
countries.The treaty established an imaginary linealong a north-south meridian370 leagueswest ofthe Cape Verde Islands, roughly 46 37'
W. In terms of the treaty, all land to thewest of the line (known to comprise mostof the South American soil) would belongto Spain, and all land to the east, toPortugal. As accurate measurementsof longitudewere impossible at that time,
the line was not strictly enforced,resulting in a Portuguese expansion ofBrazilacross the meridian.
