    Default Guía sobre tu país!

    Voy a dejar aun lado mi sentimiento anti-venezolanista por unos instantes para hacer este hilo y, ahem, para no aburrirlos con mis habituales monólogos apátridas .

    Datos Generales

    Geografía: 915mil kilómetros cuadrados + 12 islas del tamaño de las Antillas menores + unos cuantos cientos de islitas cercanas a la franja costera del país.

    Demografía: la población esta rondando los 29 millones de habitantes, cuya composición racial es más o menos la siguiente:
    50% triraciales, mulatos, zambos, etc
    20 a 25% europeos,
    10 a 15% mestizos/castizos
    5 a 10% negros, indios, árabes, turcos, libaneses, chinos

    La sociedad es muy tolerante. El racismo es casi inexistente; mas que racismo existe el clasismo. Diría sin miedo a equivocarme que Venezuela, junto con Colombia, son los países menos racistas y mas tolerantes de América Latina.

    Venezuela existen regionalismos bien definidos y cada zona tiene sys respectivos atributos que la separan del resto.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img717/3334/andes.gif[/imglink]

    La Región de los Andes presenta un clima frío de montaña, el mas agradable en todo el país a mi parecer. El acento andino se asemeja al colombiano y la cultura en general es bastante parecida a la de ese país.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img209/191/central.gif[/imglink]

    La Región Central es la mas poblada e importante del país en términos económicos y políticos. Allí se concentran las principales urbes de Venezuela: Caracas, Valencia y Maracay. Se habla con acento capitalino, el que comúnmente se asocia con Venezuela en el exterior.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img577/5431/guayana.gif[/imglink]

    La Región Guayana es la mas extensa pero la menos habitada, con una superficie equivalente a España la cual alberga menos del 10% de la población, la cual se concentra en Ciudad Guayana, donde vivo yo, ubicada en el Estado Bolívar (el del medio). Es la cuna del fútbol en Venezuela y el lugar donde se realizan los carnavales mas populares del país, en El Callao. El calipso se encuentra muy difundido.

    Aquí se encuentran los paisajes naturales mas espectaculares de Venezuela, como Canaima, parte de la selva amazónica y los ríos Orinoco y Caroní, este ultimo de fuerte caudal el cual es aprovechado por una cadena de represas hidroelectricas que proporcionan el 70% de la energía de todo el país. En el estado Bolivar también se encuentran ubicados los principales yacimientos de mineral de hierro y aluminio del país, por lo que la extracción y procesamiento de los mismos constituye la principal actividad económica de la región.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img254/4060/llanos.gif[/imglink]

    De los Llanos proviene el Joropo, la música tradicional venezolana, y la música llanera, bastante popular en todo el país. En esta región predomina la agricultura y la ganadería, por lo que es de naturaleza rural, sin ninguna ciudad de importancia y con muchos poblados regados por todo el territorio.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img713/5945/occidente.gif[/imglink]

    Me van a disculpar, no conozco mucho la región Occidental. Lo único que se me viene a la cabeza es que allí se encuentra el Complejo Petroquimico de Paraguana, el segundo mas grande del mundo; los Medanos de Coro, un típico desierto con dunas de arena; y la ciudad de Barquisimeto, de donde han salido varios de los músicos mas populares del país.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img405/4951/oriente.gif[/imglink]

    La Región Oriental es mi favorita. El acento de aquí es rápido, colorido y grosero. Las playas de Mochima son de las mejores del país. La Isla de Margarita es uno de los destinos turísticos mas visitados del país, y uno de los mejores lugares en el mundo para practicar windsuf y kitesurf. La región cuenta con grandes yacimientos de petroleo y gas, y varios de los puertos mas importantes del país. A mi parecer esta región tiene el potencial para convertirse en una de las principales de Venezuela.

    [imglink]http://imageshack.us/a/img542/5827/zulia.gif[/imglink]

    La Región Zuliana es la segunda en importancia de Venezuela, tanto en lo económico como en lo social. De allí se extrae un porcentaje bastante elevado de toda la producción petrolera del país y la ciudad de Maracaibo es la segunda mas importante después de Caracas. Los zulianos son orgullosos de su cultura, por lo que se podría pensar que son un tanto presumidos, y no es raro escuchar a mas de uno con ínfulas independentistas. Existe una sana rivalidad entre los zulianos y los capitalinos sobre quien tiene la mejor música/comida/equipo de béisbol/etc.

    El Relámpago del Catatumbo es un fenómeno muy curioso e importante para el planeta.

    Economía: es la 5ta economía de América Latina, con un PBI aprox. de 400.000 billones de $ y un PBI per capita de 14.000$. Los principales producto de exportación son el petroleo/gas y sus derivados. Le sigue por una distancia considerable el hierro, aluminio, acero, oro y diversos minerales preciosos. Se importa una gran cantidad de productos manufacturados para abastecer el mercado interno, el cual no es auto-suficiente. Existen bastas extensiones de tierras aptas para la agricultura y la ganadería, ademas de enormes reservas de petroleo, gas y minerales.

    Los principales socios comerciales son los siguientes:


    La tasa de desempleo ronda los 7%, mientras que la inflación se ubica en 20%, la mas alta de la región si mal no recuerdo. Es fácil conseguir trabajo en Venezuela, especialmente si tienes titulo universitario. Hacer dinero de manera honrada también es sencillo y cualquier tipo de negocio tiene bastantes posibilidades de prosperar. Debido a las políticas del gobierno, el mercado inmobiliario ha desaparecido casi por completo (con esto me refiero al alquiler de viviendas, pero no voy a indagar en el asunto).

    Política: el país se encuentra totalmente polarizado en dos sectores, el Chavismo y la Oposición. Los primeros controlan casi a la totalidad el sector publico y los poderes del estado. La Oposición consiste en una mezcla desorganizada de aquellos partidos políticos que gobernaron en Venezuela desde 1958 hasta el 1999, cuando asumió Chavez la presidencia.

    Las ultimas elecciones presidenciales se realizaron en octubre del 2012. Chavez gano la reelección con 55% de los votos frente a 45% que se adjudico Henrique Capriles Radonski.

    Entre las caras mas reconocidas del Chavismo destacan, ademas de Chavez, estos personajes:

    Nicolas Maduro, actual vicepresidente y otrora canciller de la republica
    [imglink]http://images.eluniversal.com/2012/10/10/nicolas-maduro-12.jpg.520.360.thumb[/imglink]
    Diosdado Cabello, considerado el numero 2 del Chavismo
    [imglink]http://www.psuv.org.ve/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Diosdado-Cabello311.jpg[/imglink]
    Rafael Ramirez, presidente de Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA)
    [imglink]http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W86Kyrme4B4/TtodshfuY2I/AAAAAAAAFSw/sdP5uu9LvEE/s1600/Rafael-Ramirez.jpg[/imglink]

    En la Oposición figuran:

    Henrique Capriles, gobernador del Estado Miranda, el mas importante del país y candidato presidencial en la pasada elección.
    [imglink]http://venezuelaaldia.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/capriles10.jpg[/imglink]
    Maria Corina Machado, quiza la diputada mas popular de la Asamblea.
    [imglink]http://www.abcdelasemana.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/302-maria-corina-machado-2.jpg[/imglink]
    Henry Ramos Allup y Julio Borges, dirigentes opositores con bastante kilometraje y lideres de los partidos opositores mas importantes

    [imglink]http://www.codigovenezuela.com/sistema/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/julio-borges-1.jpg[/imglink]

    Cultura: aunque la cultura venezolana es variada, podría decir que tiene similitudes con los países caribeños por la forma de hablar, la música, la gastronomía y el amor por el béisbol. Los equipos con mas fanaticada y eternos rivales son los Leones del Caracas y los Navegantes del Magallanes.

    El juego de cartas mas popular es el truco y los niveles de vicio llegan al extremo.

    Los platos típicos venezolanos son la arepa,

    Federative Republic of Brazil:

    Overview:



    Capital: Brasília
    Largest City: São Paulo
    Language: Portuguese
    Population: 193,946,886 [5th]
    Area: 8,515,767 km² [5th]
    GDP: $2.493 trillion [7th]

    Geography

    Climate:



    Sutropical and Temperate
    Savanna Tropical
    Humid Tropical
    Equatorial
    Arid and Semi-Arid

    The climate of Brazil comprises a wide range of weather conditions across a large area and varied topography. According to the Köppen-Geiger System, Brazil hosts five major climatic subtypes: equatorial, tropical, semiarid, highland subtropical, temperate, and subtropical. The different climatic conditions produce environments ranging from equatorial rainforests in the north and semiarid deserts in the northeast, to temperate coniferous forests in the south and tropical savannas in central Brazil. Many regions have starkly different microclimates.

    Relief:



    Brazilian topography is also diverse and includes hills, mountains, plains, highlands, and scrublands. Much of the terrain lies between 200 metres and 800 metres in elevation. The main Highlands area occupies most of the southern half of the country. The northwestern parts of the plateau consist of broad, rolling terrain broken by low, rounded hills.

    The southeastern section is more rugged, with a complex mass of ridges and mountain ranges reaching elevations of up to 2,800 metres . These ranges include the Mantiqueira and Espinhaço mountains and the Serra do Mar in the Southeast Region. In the north, the Guiana Highlands form a major drainage divide, separating rivers that flow south into the Amazon Basin from rivers that empty into the Orinoco River system, in Venezuela, to the north. The highest point in Brazil is the Pico da Neblina at 2,994 metres, and the lowest is the Atlantic Ocean.

    Brazil has a dense and complex system of rivers, one of the world's most extensive, with eight major drainage basins, all of which drain into the Atlantic. Major rivers include the Amazon (the world's second-longest river and the largest in terms of volume of water), the Paraná and its major tributary the Iguaçu (which includes the Iguazu Falls), the Negro, São Francisco, Xingu, Madeira and Tapajós rivers.

    Poputalion



    The population of Brazil, is approximately 193 million (22.31 inhabitants per square kilometer), with a ratio of men to women of 0.95:1 and 83.75% of the population defined as urban. The population is heavily concentrated in the Southeastern (79.8 million inhabitants) and Northeastern (53.5 million inhabitants) regions, while the two most extensive regions, the Center-West and the North, which together make up 64.12% of the Brazilian territory, have a total of only 29.1 million inhabitants.

    According to the National Research by Household Sample (PNAD), 48.43% of the population (about 92 million) described themselves as White; 43.80% (about 83 million) as Brown (Multiracial), 6.84% (about 13 million) as Black; 0.58% (about 1.1 million) as Asian; and 0.28% (about 536 thousand) as Amerindian (officially called indígena, Indigenous), while 0.07% (about 130 thousand) did not declare their race.

    Economy

    Brazil is the largest national economy in Latin America, the world's sixth largest economy at market exchange rates and the seventh largest in purchasing power parity (PPP), according to the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Brazil has a mixed economy with abundant natural resources. The Brazilian economy has been predicted to become one of the five largest in the world in the decades to come, the GDP per capita following and growing. Its current GDP (PPP) per capita is $10,200, putting Brazil in the 64th position according to World Bank data. It has large and developed agricultural, mining, manufacturing and service sectors, as well as a large labor pool.

    Brazilian exports are booming, creating a new generation of tycoons. Major export products include aircraft, electrical equipment, automobiles, ethanol, textiles, footwear, iron ore, steel, coffee, orange juice, soybeans and corned beef. The country has been expanding its presence in international financial and commodities markets, and is one of a group of four emerging economies called the BRIC countries. As a sign of its economic progress, Brazil has now the fourth largest car market in the world.

It is the richest region of the country, responsible for approximately 60% of the Brazilian GDP. São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais are three richest states of Brazil, the top three Brazilian states in terms of GDP. The Southeast of Brazil also has the highest GDP per capita among all Brazilian regions.

    Mid-West:



    Spoiler!


    The Central-West Region of Brazil (Portuguese: Região Centro-Oeste do Brasil) is composed of the states of Goiás, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul; along with Distrito Federal (Federal District), where Brazil's national capital, Brasília, is situated. This Region is right in the heart of Brazil, representing 18.86% of the national territory.

    With the move of the country's federal capital from Rio de Janeiro to Brasília in the 60s, the construction of roads and railways to the interior of the country made the accesses easier, speeding up the population settling and contributing significantly to its development.

    It’s the homeland of many preserved Brazilian Amerindian tribes, and is the second least inhabited region of Brazil. Whites are concentrated in Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul, and are mostly of Paulista or Southern Brazilian origin. The Climate is Tropical and Equatorial.

    Northeast:



    Spoiler!


    The Northeast Region of Brazil (Portuguese: Região Nordeste do Brasil) is composed of the following states: Maranhão, Piauí, Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe and Bahia, and it represents 18.26% of the Brazilian territory.

    The Northeast Region has a population of 53.6 million people, which represents 28% of the total number in the whole country. Most of the population lives in urban areas and about 15 million people live in the sertão. It is famous in Brazil for its hot weather, beautiful beaches, rich culture (unique folklore, music, cuisine, literature), Carnival and St. John's festivities.

    Most of the population is Pardo (mixed) and Black. The climate is predominantly Tropical, with a sizable Arid portion in the countryside, that is the poorest part of the country.

    North:



    Spoiler!


    The North Region of Brazil (Portuguese: Região Norte do Brasil) is the largest Region of Brazil, corresponding to 45.27% of the national territory. It is the least inhabited of the country, and contributes with a minor percentage in the national GDP and population. It is composed by the states of Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia, Roraima and Tocantins.

    Its demographic density is the lowest in Brazil considering all the regions of the country, with only 3.8 inhabitants per km2. Most of the population is centered in urban areas.

    The population here is also predominantly Pardo, but there’s also a huge Amerindian community, being the homeland of many preserved tribes, that are spread throughout the entire Amazon Basin. The climate is Equatorial.

    Desconocia que Guyana fuera la cuna venezolana del futbol, pero creo que el lugar donde es mas popular el futbol (el unico donde es casi tan popular como el beisbol)en Venezuela es en la zona andina. Sobre todo en Tachira. La zona andina de Venezuela es una continuacion de los valles andinos colombianos tanto cultural como etnicamente, y donde el aporte negroide es el menor de toda Venezuela.

    Guayana. Guyana es el país de al lado. Y si, creo que el Deportivo Tachira es el equipo de fútbol mas popular en Venezuela.

    En Ciudad Guayana esta el estadio de béisbol mas grande del país, pero rara vez se celebran partidos aquí porque no tenemos equipo de béisbol. Por eso el fútbol es mucho mas popular en esta región y todo el mundo apoya al equipo local, los Mineros de Guayana.

    Sobre la composicion racial no te sabría decir, la ultima vez que estuve por los andes venezolanos tenia como 8 años. Sin embargo, mis amigos de por allá son bien oscuritos.
