A World History Country Profile

Mirjam Nilsson

I’ve got your attention!


Introduction
Bolivia, officially the Pluractional State of Bolivia is
a landlocked country located in western central South
America. It is bordered Brazil to the north and
east, Paraguay to the southeast, Argentina to the
south, Chile to the southwest and Peru to the west.
The seat of government and executive capital is La
Paz, while the constitutional capital is Sucre. The
largest city and principal industrial center is Santa
Cruz de la Sierra, located on the Llanos
Orientals (tropical lowlands), a mostly flat region in
the east of the country.

The sovereign state of Bolivia is


a constitutionally unitary state, divided into nine
departments. Its geography varies from the peaks of
the Andes in the West to the Eastern Lowlands,
situated within the Amazon basin. One-third of the
country is within the Andean Mountain range. With
Bolivia is the fifth largest country in South America,
after Brazil, Argentina, Peru, and Colombia (and
alongside Paraguay, one of the only two landlocked
countries in the Americas), the 27th largest in the
world, the largest landlocked country in the Southern Who made you king?
Hemisphere, and the world's seventh largest
landlocked country, Government
after Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Chad, Niger, Mali,
and Ethiopia.
The politics of Bolivia takes place in a tree of
a presidential representative
democratic republic, whereby
the president is head of state, head of
government and head of a diverse multi-party
system. Executive power is exercised by the
government. Legislative power is vested in
both the government and the two chambers of
parliament. Both the Judiciary and
the electoral branch are independent of the
executive and the legislature. After the 2015
election, 53.3% of the seats in national
parliament were held by women, a higher
proportion of women than that of the
population.

The civil war between the Conservatives and


the Liberals ended in 1912 with the latter's
victory; a liberal era began that lasted until
1927. A system of public education
developed, accompanied by moderate
anticlericalism: Catholicism lost its status as
the only religion recognized by the State in
1906 and civil marriage was adopted in 1969.
Bolivian liberalism, however, is clearly losing
its progressive character to coexist with the
interests of the new tin fortunes (the liberal
era is sometimes also considered to be the tin
era, with tin production having increased
considerably), landowners and the army.
Inspired by the example of the liberal
revolution led by Anthony Lucario in Ecuador,
a new liberalism will organize itself into a
republican party and express some social
concerns against the domination of the liberal
oligarchy.
