Chile is a South American country that shares borders with Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina. The southernmost country on the globe, Chile is set between the Andes Mountain range and the Pacific Ocean, with Antarctica positioned directly south of its border. Chile was conquered by Spain during the Age of Discovery in the 16th century. Replacing the Incan civilization, Spain ruled in the region until 1818, when Chile finally declared its independence.
