Colombia is a roughly swastika shaped country in South America at the northwestern tip of the continent, adjacent to Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, and Brasil.
The nation was founded in 1830 along with Venezuela and Ecuador when Gran Colombia collapsed after the revolutions of Simon Bolivar in the early 1800's. Colombia used to hold the area that is now Panama until 1903 when Theodore Roosevelt encouraged Panamanian rebels to leave Colombia when Colombia refused to work with American and Euopeans interested in building the Panama Canal.

More recently Colombia has become a principle grower of cocaine for export and has been subverted by American and globalist forces interested in controlling this drug money. Cartels have open bounties on police officers and practice wonton kidnapping. FARC rebel paramilitary groups fight in Colombia to maintain a condition of chaos also seen in Iraq that is favorable to some military industries and economies.
Colombia's major cities in the West from the South are Cali, Tuala, Bogota, Medellin, and Barranquilla on the Caribbean shore. The eastern third of the country is rural and enters the Amazon rainforest. Urban areas link with Quito in Ecuador and San Cristobal and Maraciabo in Venezuela to the northeast.
