Detailed Physical map of Colombia showing the Andes Mountains, Amazon Rainforest and Coastline, elevations and other topographic features. Colombia shares borders with Venezuela, Brazil, Peru and Ecuador. Colombia is officially known as the Republic of Colombia. It is a country situated in the northwest of South America and is bordered by Panama to the northwest, by Brazil and Venezuela to the east, and by Peru and Ecuador to the south.
The country's geography consists of six main natural regions that have their own unique characteristics: the Andes mountain range region, shared with Ecuador and Venezuela; the Pacific coastal region, shared with Panama and Ecuador; the Caribbean coastal region, shared with Venezuela and Panama; the Llanos plains, shared with Venezuela; and the Amazon Rainforest region, shared with Venezuela, Brazil, Peru and Ecuador. A portion of the Ring of Fire forms a part of this nation, and this region faces continuous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Peaks in the Cordillera Occidental stand at 4,700 m, and those in the Cordillera Central as well as the Cordillera Oriental are about 5,000 m high.
The main rivers of Colombia are the Magdalena, the Cauca, the Guaviare, the Atrato, the Meta, the Putumayo and the Caqueta. The country also has four main drainage systems: the Pacific drain, the Orinoco Basin, the Caribbean drain, as well as the Amazon Basin. The rivers Orinoco and Amazon mark limits with Colombia to Venezuela and Peru respectively.
