Living in Peru
Peru is located in South America, bordered by Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia and Chile. It covers over 1.2 million square kilometres and features three main geographical areas; the coast featuring mainly arid landscapes, the highlands dominated by the Andes mountain range and the jungle, covered by Amazon rainforest which is where 60% of the country’s area is located. Human presence in Peru dates back to around 9000BC where Andean societies began to flourish. One of the most famous cultures from Peru is the Incas, who emerged as a powerful dynasty and spanned a huge empire, making Cusco their capital. The Spanish conquest of this powerful empire was extremely important, with full Spanish control taken in 1572, with independence not achieved until the 1800s. Peru has become a multi-ethnic nation following its history, with Spanish and African peoples immigrating there under colonial rule, as well as other Europeans and Chinese and Japanese who came in the 1850s. Culturally, there has mainly been influences from Amerindian and Spanish peoples, but much of the artistic tradition dates back to the Pre-Inca cultures. The Incas constructed one of Peru’s most famous sites, Machu Piccu; it is a 15th century Inca citadel sat high on a mountain ridge and it very popular with tourists visiting the country.
