Bolivia is a country in central-ish South America. It was named after Simón Bolívar, who helped several South American countries gain independence from Spain. Despite being landlocked since 1879 due to a war with Chile, Bolivia has a fully functional navy to this day[1]. Its navy is seen as a matter of pride and is continued to be supported in hopes of someday regaining its coastline. While not having direct access to the sea, its navy patrols Lake Titicaca and Bolivia's natural rivers.
Indigenous peoples make up around 50% of Bolivia's population. Due to being relatively isolated from other countries, Indigenous traditions don't seem to be going away any time soon, even after Spanish colonialism.
Fun fact: Bolivia has two capitals, La Paz and Sucre!
