Colombia has been inhabited by various indigenous peoples since at least 12,000 BCE, including the Muisca, Quimbaya and Tairona. The Spanish landed first in La Guajira in 1499 and by the mid-16th century colonized parts of the region, establishing the New Kingdom of Granada, with Santa Fé de Bogotá as its capital. Independence from the Spanish Empire was achieved in 1819, with what is now Colombia emerging as the United Provinces of New Granada. The new nation experimented with federalism as the Granadine Confederation (1858) and then the United States of Colombia (1863), before the Republic of Colombia was finally declared in 1886. Panama seceded in 1903, leading to Colombia's present borders. Beginning in the 1960s, the country has suffered from an asymmetric low-intensity armed conflict and political violence, both of which escalated in the 1990s. Since 2005, there has been significant improvement in security, stability and rule of law, as well as unprecedented economic growth and development.
Colombia is one of the world's seventeen megadiverse countries; it has the second-highest level of biodiversity in the world.[15] Its territory encompasses Amazon rainforest, highlands, grasslands and deserts. It is the only country in South America with coastlines and islands along both Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Colombia is a member of major global and regional organizations including the UN, the WTO, the OECD, the OAS, the Pacific Alliance and the Andean Community. It is also a NATO Global Partner. Its diversified economy is the third-largest in South America, with macroeconomic stability and favorable long-term growth prospects.

Captions are mostly good
It was a good match. Engaging instructor.
Yes, it is good because I am considering spending some time in Colombia.
if is very interesting
Great information
Basically, it has been very informative as well as educative. If you have plans of staying in the said country, this will help you to know to some extent what you're likely to experience.
I found the instructor to be engaging, jovial and funny. He did such a good job at promoting tourism in Columbia that the government there should pay him for his efforts.
Just learning about how my ingrained fears were no longer a reflection of reality made me add Columbia back to my list of travel destinations, even if I never decide to move there.
I pretty much knew about everything they talked about.
Now I am feeling like living in Colombia already..:) Would you or anyone do Nomad Travel Europe, e.g. Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Iceland
