Trinidad
Trinidad
a mountainous one.
The western coast of South America is home to one of the longest mountain ranges in the world. The Andes Mountains stretch 4500 miles from the tip of South America all the way up to Panama.
The group of islands, located 300miles from South America's Patagonian coast is called Falkland Islands. They are one of the British overseas territories and not part of South America.
Archipelagos are found in oceans all over the world. One of the most famous is the Aleutian Islands off the coast of the American state of Alaska.
South America fits alongside Africa. If you look at a map and see the west coast of Africa and the east coast of South America, you can see they are like jigsaw pieces to each other, as at one time they were together, before splitting and drifting apart.
North and South America separate the Pacific form the Atlantic on one side and I suppose if you say the Russian Chinese coast is a Pacific coast then the continent of Eurasia separates the The Pacific from the Atlantic shores of Europe.
It can be said that the Panama Canal has benefited every country in Central America because the Panama Canal provides a way to go through North America and South America. If it wasn't there, you would have to go around South America to get past North or South America by boat.
Before the Panama Canal was built, ships had to navigate around Cape Horn on the southern tip of South America to get from one coast of North America to the other.
Asia is located to the west of South America across the Pacific Ocean. To reach Asia from South America, one would typically travel westward. Specifically, countries on the western coast of South America, like Chile and Peru, are positioned closest to Asia. However, the distance is vast, making direct travel routes primarily over the ocean.
Uruguay is located in the continent South America
South America is one continent, and it does not have continents in it or on it because South America in itself is one big continent. There are countries in the continent of South America, but not continents.
