Montevideo (Spanish pronunciation: [monteβiˈðe.o]) is the capital and largest city of Uruguay. According to the 2011 census, the city proper has a population of 1,319,108 (about one-third of the country's total population) in an area of 194.0 square kilometres (74.9 sq mi). The southernmost capital city in the Americas, Montevideo is situated in the southern coast of the country, on the northeastern bank of the Río de la Plata.
The city was established in 1724 by a Spanish soldier, Bruno Mauricio de Zabala, as a strategic move amidst the Spanish-Portuguese dispute over the platine region. It was also under brief British rule in 1807. Montevideo hosted all the matches during the first FIFA World Cup.

Uruguay is emerging as one of South America’s favorite destinations. Its capital Montevideo has a warm, temperate climate, pleasant sea breezes and miles of boulevards.

Eran aproximadamente las 12 del mediodía cuando tomé la decisión de agarrar Ramón Anador para ir hasta mi casa en Malvín. La decisión fue premeditada: no tenía pensado agarrar Rivera por miedo a arboles caidos. Esta parecia ser la mejor opción. Evidentemente no lo fué. La ignorancia me comió. El desconocimiento de que el cruce de Ramón Anador y Propios era lo primero que se inunda cuando diluvia me delató. Finalmente, estoy a salvo. Yo, el auto no. El Suzuki rojo del 97' que tantas batallas peleó, por fin dijo adiós. Hasta siempre, Rojito del alma!
