Colombia

"Colombia is now being ravaged by the horrors of a civil war. If it gets worse, I'll take care of these pesky rebels once and for all. Maybe it's no choice but to put them down... for me."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Libertad y Orden

Colombia (/kəˈlʌmbiə, -ˈlɒm-/ kə-LUM-bee-ə, -LOM-; Spanish: [koˈlombja]), officially the Republic of Colombia (Spanish: República de Colombia), is a sovereign state largely situated in the northwest of South America, with territories in Central America. Colombia shares a border to the northwest with Panama, to the east with Venezuela and Brazil and to the south with Ecuador and Peru. It shares its maritime limits with Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Jamaica, Haiti and the Dominican Republic. It is a unitary, constitutional republic comprising thirty-two departments. The territory of what is now Colombia was originally inhabited by indigenous peoples, including the Muisca, Quimbaya and the Tairona.
