South America
South America, with its rich tapestry of cultures, biodiversity, and resources, has a history that spans thousands of years, including the development of complex pre-Columbian civilizations like the Inca. European colonization drastically altered the continent's demographic and cultural landscape. The past 5000 years have seen the struggle for independence in the 19th century, followed by periods of political instability, but also significant cultural and economic contributions to the world, especially in music, literature, and sports.
