Peru, or as this state is officially called the Republic of Peru, is one of the largest countries on the South American continent (in terms of area it is second only to Argentina and Brazil).

Despite the fact that the first mention of Peru dates back to 1525, civilization on the territory of this state began to develop as early as the 10th millennium BC, when the ancient Norte Chico people lived here. They also dubbed these lands "Peru", which literally means "river".

Geographic characteristics

The territory of the Latin American republic in the world ranking takes 19th place. The total area of ​​the country is slightly less than 1,300 thousand m2. Peru is located almost on the coastline of the continent, which ensures its proximity to five states at once (Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile) and the whole Pacific Ocean.

The population density in the country is quite high - here on one square meter 23 people live. Total population is almost 31 million people, with a third of the total population concentrated in the main city of Lima.

Nature

Peru is located in a very mountainous area. Despite the fact that there is a plain along the coastline, large mountains already rise a little to the east. There are about thirty peaks in total, the height of which exceeds 6000 meters. Mount Huascaran in the Andes, which is part of the Cordillera Blanca massif (6768 m), is considered to be the highest point in Peru.

Wanyunkunka rainbow mountains deserve special attention, the name of which is literally translated from the Quechua Indian language as “rainbow-colored mountains”. Many centuries ago, the red sandstone that covers the peaks began to change its color under the influence of wind and underground waters and began to turn into green, yellow, brown, blue and other colors. This miracle of nature is located in the province of Quispikanchis, 100 km from Cusco at an altitude of 5,200 meters. Conquering such a peak is not easy, but the editors of the National Geographic channel strongly advise you to at least try, and allocate a place in the list of those that must be seen during a lifetime ...

In this category, Peru can also be called a champion. In total, there are about twenty rivers and five large lakes in the country. Almost everyone has heard of the Amazon River and Lake Titicaca. Both of these aquatic ecosystems are among the most polluted, despite their size, every year more and more in need of purification.

The Amazon is the largest river after the Nile, it crosses the territory of five Latin American states and is included in the list of seven natural wonders of the world...

The Pacific Ocean is also included in the water ecosystem of Peru. The water area of ​​​​the ocean for Peru is not so important, but every year about 2 million tourists admire the ocean from the shores of this particular republic. Mining has been discovered here: ferromanganese nodules, as well as gas hydrates. In addition, fishing is quite well developed here, which works for the benefit of Food Industry and medicine...

Most of the territory of Peru does not have a permanent vegetation cover, which is explained by excessive aridity. The area near the Andes is famous for its densely planted subtropics and jungle. Here you can find very rare species of red and vanilla trees, as well as sarsaparilla and evergreen cacti.

The animal world is much richer. About 800 species of birds, 250 species of mammals and more than 1000 species of insects constantly inhabit Peru. Approximately 50 species (mysterious poison dart frog, yellow-faced parrot, Inca toad, etc.) are considered endemic and are of particular interest to zoologists and travelers...

Tropical desert and subequatorial climates prevail in the west and east of the country, respectively. When climbing to a height, the indicators may change. In general, dryness is characteristic of the entire territory due to the proximity of the cold Peruvian Current, it is especially difficult for local residents from December to April, then the amount of precipitation slightly increases.

Peru is characterized by sharp temperature changes, during the day the air warms up to about 40 degrees, and at night to 13 ...

Resources

The industry in Peru works in two directions: mining and manufacturing. Minerals are constantly being mined here: zinc, gold, natural gas, oil, lead, silver and more. The manufacturing industry works in the direction of automobiles, metals, textiles and food.

Agriculture here provides about 8.5% of the total GDP. Moreover, the emphasis is on the cultivation of grain crops, such as: potatoes, barley, corn. Industrial crops include cotton and sugarcane. In addition, Peru, which is traditional for Latin America, is actively engaged in the cultivation of coffee and cocoa beans. Many continue to illegally harvest coca bush...

culture

As for the ethnic composition of Peru, only half of the modern population here are Peruvians (Creoles, Mestizos), the remaining 50% are classified as Indians. And to this day, the culture of the ancient Incas lives here, who thousands of years ago were considered the ruling class. The Machu Picchu fortress testifies to the supremacy of this tribe in Peru. Now rare excursions and mysterious rites are held in the "lost city of the Sun".

In total, four tribes live on the territory of Peru, which continue to honor the traditions of their ancestors. The most numerous is the Quechua tribe (almost 12 million). Today they are engaged in agriculture and profess Catholicism, although they often use the techniques of shamanism and are engaged in sacrifice during field work ...

Republic of Peru The country's name comes from the Piru River, which means "river" in the language of the local Indians. Capital - Lima, Area sq. km., Population - 30.38 million people.

Republic of Peru Administrative division: the state is divided into 25 departments. Major cities: Callao, Arequipa, Trujillo, Chiclayo. Official language: Spanish. Religion: 90% Catholic.Catholic Ethnic composition: 50% Peruvian (Hispanic, Mestizo, Creole), 49% Indian.Hispanic Currency: New Sol = 100 centimos.

Climate The average temperature on the coast of Peru ranges from + 14°С to + 27°С, precipitation falls up to 3000 mm per year, while in the highlands or in the sierra it is usually cool, sunny and dry most of the year. From December to May in the Sierra, the rainy season, precipitation falls from 700 to 1000 mm per year. The jungle is hot and humid, °C. In the jungle, Lima suffers from a garua of dense, damp fog that envelops the entire city even in winter.

Flora Rare shrubs and cacti grow on the western slopes of the Andes, on the inner plateaus, in the east and north, high-mountain tropical steppes, and in the southeast, semi-deserts. On the eastern slopes of the Andes and on the plains of the selva, moist tropical forests grow with valuable tree species (rubber plants, cinchona, etc.).

Peru - officially the Republic of Peru - is a country in western South America. In terms of area, it is 6.5 times smaller than Brazil. The capital is Lima. The Peruvian territory was the birthplace of the Norte Chico, one of the oldest civilizations in the world. The Inca Empire also existed here - the largest state in America before Columbus. The Spanish Empire conquered the area in the 16th century and made it their colony. The country gained independence in 1821.

Peru today is a representative democratic republic divided into 25 regions. Its geography varies from the arid plains of the Pacific coast to the peaks of the Andes mountains and the rainforests of the Amazon Basin. It is a developing country with a cost of living of about 40%. Its main areas of activity include agriculture, fishing, mining, and the production of products such as textiles.

The Peruvian population of 28 million (for example, Nigeria, which is smaller than Peru, has a population of 148 million), is multi-ethnic, including Amerindians, Europeans, Africans and Asians. The main spoken language is Spanish, although a significant number of Peruvians speak Quechua or other native languages. This mixture of cultural traditions has resulted in a wide variety of expressions in fields such as art, cuisine, literature, and music.

Peru is one of the most visited countries in Latin America - the territory of this country contains the largest number monuments of the ancient Inca Empire - Machu Picchu, Cusco and many others. Also in Peru are monuments of such ancient cultures as Nazca (Nazca lines, which are visible only from space), monuments of Chavin and Quechua cultures. Machu Picchu is an ancient city lost in the Andes, one of the most important monuments of the Inca civilization. Due to its strategic location in the Andes, the city was not captured by the Spanish conquistadors, which saved the city from sacking, and now it is completely preserved and the most important architectural monument of Peru.

On the coast of Peru, the climatic conditions are as follows: there is little precipitation here - about 200 mm per year in the north and 100 mm in the south, often in the form of garua (dense wet fog that envelops the entire city even in winter). Usually the reason for this is the warm El Niño current, which disrupts not only the weather in Peru, but also in other countries every 7 years.

Description of the slide:

Coastal desert (Costa) Highlands of the Andes (Sierra) Selva Tropical desert type of climate Climate dry and cool Average temperatures from 15 to 25 ° C Statistically annual rainfall - 50 mm In winter, the sky is constantly covered with clouds, coastal fogs are frequent In the mountains, the climate depends on the height of the area Average temperatures are from 8 to 11 ° C. On the open eastern slopes, the annual rainfall exceeds 2500 mm, in closed basins it is much less, amounting, for example, in Cusco, 810 mm. The rainy season lasts from November to March. Subequatorial type of climate The climate is humid, with a large amount of precipitation Average temperatures from 24 to 27 ° C Average annual rainfall in tropical forests is 3800 mm The rainy season lasts from May to September Costa. In the west of Peru, a tropical desert type of climate prevails; the Peruvian Current (Humboldt Current) passes along the western coast of the country, because of this, it is very dry and cool on the ocean coast. During the year, only 10 to 50 mm of precipitation falls here, but in some years it does not rain at all. There is practically no rain throughout the year, in Lima there is high humidity, in other places the climate is quite dry. Sea breezes keep the average temperature 6°C below the latitudinal norm. In winter (from June to October) the sky is constantly covered with clouds, coastal fogs are frequent. At this time of the year, the foothills of the Andes are shrouded in a damp haze, locally called "garua". Garua stimulates the growth of low grasses and forb ephemerals, which together make up a community called "loma" and used as pasture. Sierra. Climatic conditions and the vegetation cover of the mountains vary depending on the absolute height. Average temperatures drop by about 1.7°C for every 450 m rise. Perpetual snow and glaciers cover the peaks above 5000 m asl, and agriculture is possible up to 4400 m asl. There are often frosts at night. The amount of precipitation falls rapidly to the south, which greatly affects the nature of the vegetation. In the north and east of the country, the middle part of the Andean slopes is covered with dense subtropical mountain forest, which gradually gives way with height to a forest of a more temperate climatic type, called ceja de la montaña (“eyebrow of the mountain”), or simply “seja”. Among its species, the cinchona tree, the source of quinine, is of the greatest value. In the south, the alpine vegetation is formed mainly by drought-resistant feather grass, short grasses and the resinous shrub lepidophyllum (this community is called "tola"). The bottom and lower parts of the slopes of dry closed valleys are occupied by cacti, thorny legumes and deciduous broad-leaved trees, while the upper part of the slopes is covered by "sekha". Selva. In the east - subequatorial, i.e. wet, with big amount Precipitation The selva is hot and humid all year round. IN summer time daytime temperatures reach 34 degrees Celsius, nighttime temperatures drop to +24 degrees. In winter, during the day, the air warms up to +30 degrees, and at night it cools down to 20 degrees. In the zone of humid tropical forests, the temperature is high all year round, and heavy rains fall. The natural vegetation is represented by high-stemmed tropical rainforest, under the canopy of which a dense shadow practically does not allow the ground layer to develop. Of the thousands of tree species, the largest economic importance have acajou (mahogany) and zedrel. Grasses grow on poorly drained areas, while stiff grasses and low shrubs grow on loose sandy soils and rocky slopes.

In the mountainous region in the north and east, mountain-steppe soils predominate, in the southeast - characteristic of semi-deserts. of the Costa region are scarce, on the western slopes of the Andes - rare shrubs and cacti. On the inner plateaus, in the north and east, there is a high-mountain tropical steppe (khalka) with mountain-steppe soils; in the southeast, semi-deserts (puna). On the eastern slopes of the Andes and the plains of the Selva there are moist evergreen forests with valuable tree species (rubber plants, cinchona, coca, etc.). the soil of the selva is extremely poor in minerals washed out by tropical rains

Description of the slide:

The main agricultural sectors The main crops of the coastal areas are rice, cotton and sugar cane, tobacco and fruits: guava, mango, papaya The main crops in the mountains are potatoes, corn, barley, cassava (cassava) and yams The main crops in the lower valleys parts of the eastern slopes of the Andes - coffee, beans, cocoa, tea, coca Agriculture - the most important branch of Peruvian agriculture, which employs 3/5 of the country's active population. By tradition, products are divided into export and consumer. In Kosta, cotton and sugar cane crops are mainly concentrated. Cotton grown in Peru is a long-staple cotton that is highly valued on the world market. There are coffee plantations on the eastern slopes of the Andes and in some valleys of the Sierra. Citrus fruits, mangoes, strawberries and cocoa beans are of export importance. In addition, about 10,000 tons of coca leaf are harvested annually. The coca bush, from whose leaves cocaine is produced, is a crop traditionally cultivated by the American Indians. In the late 1970s, when coca began to be exported to Bolivia and Colombia in the form of either semi-finished paste or fully refined cocaine, coca cultivation became profitable. Peru's plantations provide two-thirds of the world's cocaine production, and the annual income from the cocaine business ranges from 600 to 800 million dollars. The most important consumer crops include rice, maize, cassava, yuca, potatoes, and wheat. Vegetable oil is made from cotton seeds Wild yam extract creams are known for their help in the treatment of several skin conditions such as yellow skin, psoriasis, eczema and conjunctiva. These creams are also good moisturizers.

It is the highest mountain in the world Railway with standard gauge. It connects the capital with the mining centers of the Sierra and ends in the high mountain valley of the Mantaro River in the east - one of the granaries of Peru. The southern highway - goes from seaport Mollendo, overcoming a dissected mountainous terrain, through the oasis where the city of Arequipa is located, to Lake Titicaca and further to Cusco.

Environmental problems Deforestation Overgrazing leading to soil erosion Desertification Atmospheric pollution in Lima Pollution of rivers and coastal waters with industrial waste. Peru is the largest gold producer in Latin America and the sixth largest in the world. At the same time, illegal mining accounts for about 20% of all gold production in Peru increased against the backdrop of global economic crisis. And the reason for this was the formation of numerous illegal mines in which gold is mined among the mountain jungle. As scientists were able to calculate, the sharply increased demand for gold has led to the fact that about 6,000 hectares of forests disappear annually.

Description of the slide:

Sacsayhuaman Morai Sacsayhuaman is a citadel, a garrison station and a temple complex in Cusco (Peru). Only the Incas could enter the territory of the complex, since it was considered the house of the Sun, the house of weapons and war. Accordingly, there was a hierarchical structure that controlled the entire economy, headed by a legitimate Inca of royal blood. Morai is a city in Peru about 50 km northeast of Cusco, near the city of Maras. The city of Moray is famous for a large complex of ruins from the time of the Inca civilization.
