Ecuador (i/ˈɛkwədɔːr/ E-kwə-dawr, Spanish: [ekwaˈðor]), officially the Republic of Ecuador (Spanish: República del Ecuador, which literally translates as "Republic of the Equator"), is a representative democratic republic in northwestern South America, bordered by Colombia on the north, Peru on the east and south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Ecuador also includes the Galápagos Islands in the Pacific, about 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) west of the mainland.
What is now Ecuador was home to a variety of Amerindian groups that were gradually incorporated into the Inca Empire during the fifteenth century. The territory was colonized by Spain during the sixteenth century, achieving independence in 1820 as part of Gran Colombia, from which it emerged as its own sovereign state in 1830. The legacy of both empires is reflected in Ecuador's ethnically diverse population, with most of its 15.2 million people being mestizos, followed by large minorities of European, Amerindian, and African descendants.
SASH! vs Olly James - Ecuador is OUT NOW!

En los últimos años, el gobierno de Rafael Correa de Ecuador se ha convertido en un modelo a seguir para muchos políticos, analistas e intelectuales de izquierdas. De hecho, tras la caída en desgracia de la Venezuela de Chávez y Maduro, el Ecuador de Correa y su Revolución Ciudadana son, con mucha probabilidad, la última gran esperanza de los movimientos de izquierdas que se han sucedido en Latinoamérica desde comienzos del S.XXI Y, es cierto, en los ya 9 años de Rafael Correa al frente del país, se han conseguido importantes logros sociales, sin embargo, la narración triunfal del periodo no es del todo como se nos muestra. Hoy, en VisualPolitik, te hablamos de Ecuador, uno de los pocos países del mundo cuya moneda la han sustituido por el dólar de Estados Unidos. ¡Contribuye con VisualP...

Travel video about destination Ecuador. Ecuador is the smallest of the Andes’ states in South America and a land that derived its name from the Equator.
