The Andes Mountains, a major mountain range running along the western edge of South America, posed significant challenges to the unification of the continent. Their rugged terrain created natural barriers that hindered communication and transportation between different regions. Additionally, the diverse climates and ecosystems on either side of the Andes contributed to varying cultures and societies, further complicating efforts for political and social unification.
