About Uruguay
Officially known as the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, Uruguay is a small yet dynamic country located in the southeastern region of South America. It borders Argentina to the west and Brazil to the north, with the Atlantic Ocean stretching along its southeastern coast. Uruguay covers an area of approximately 176,000 square kilometers and has a population of around 3.5 million people. The country's capital and largest city, Montevideo, is home to about one-third of Uruguayans. Known for its strong democratic governance, Uruguay is often referred to as South America's 'first welfare state'. It stands out for its liberal social laws, high levels of transparency, and well-performing education system. The country was the first in the world to fully legalize the production, sale, and consumption of marijuana. The country is also famous for its rich gaucho heritage and traditions, reflected in its love for asado barbecues and mate, a traditional caffeine-infused drink. Its landscape is characterized by rolling plains, low hill ranges, and fertile coastal and riverine lowlands, making it an ideal place for livestock and agriculture. This is manifested in the country's economy, where agricultural exports, especially beef and wool, play a key role. Also, Uruguay's tourism sector continues to thrive, driven by its picturesque beaches, historic towns, and vibrant cultural events like the annual Carnaval.
