For other uses, see Chile (disambiguation). Chile, officially the Republic of Chile (Spanish: ), is a country in South America occupying a long and narrow coastal strip wedged between the Andes mountains and the Pacific Ocean. It borders Peru to thenorth, Bolivia to the northeast, Argentina to the east, and the Drake Passage at the country's southernmost tip. It is one of only two countries in South America that does not have a border with Brazil. The Pacific forms the country's entire western border, with a coastline that stretches over 6,435 kilometres. Chilean territory extends to the Pacific Ocean which includes the overseas territories of Juan Fernandez Islands, the Sala y mez islands, the Desventuradas Islands and Easter Island located in Polynesia. Chile claims 1,250,000 km (482,628 sq mi) of territory in Antarctica.

Chile's unusual, ribbon-like shape 4,300 km (2,672 mi) long and on average 175 km (109 mi) wide has given it a hugely varied climate, ranging from the world's driest desert the Atacama in the north, through a Mediterranean climate inthe centre, to a snow-prone Alpine climate in the south, with glaciers, fjords and lakes. The northern Chilean desert contains great mineral wealth, principally copper. The relatively small central area dominates the country in terms of population and agricultural resources. This area also is the cultural and political center from which hile expanded in the late 19th century, when it incorporated its northern and southern regions. Southern Chile is rich in forests and grazing lands and features a string of volcanoes and lakes. The southern coast is a labyrinth of fjords, inlets, canals, twisting peninsulas, and islands. The Andes Mountains are located on the eastern border.
