The country extents for approximately 650 miles (1,050 km) from north to south and about 800 miles (1,285 km) from east to west. Venezuela has 2,800 kilometers of Caribbean coastline, 72 tropical islands and a population of 21 million. It is bordered by Guyana on the east, by Brazil on the south, and by Colombia on the west. Its surface can be divided into four main geographical regions. Humid, swampy lowlands surround the shallow lake Maracaibo in the northwestern part of the country. To the East the lowlands quickly rise into Sierra Nevada de Mérida, a north Andean spur that forms the second region. The Merida mountain range then swings eastwards to the Coastal highlands in the North. This range then dips under the ocean and appears as the string of Caribbean islands. The third main geographical region is the vast plains of the Llanos, a low-lying grassland of central Venezuela that occupies about one-third of the country. The Llanos and the Guiana Highlands are drained by the Orinoco River (1,700 miles - 2,735 kilometers) system that flows into the Atlantic Ocean through a number of distributaries. Orinoco tributaries of the Guiana Highlands descend over gigantic, erosion-resistant mounds known as tepuis (steps). The highest waterfall in the world, Angel Falls (3,212 feet - 979 meters), descends from one of these tepuis.

The meticulous journalism of this program exposes the mendacious journalism of others. A combination of intelligence, passion, and humour illuminates this controversial tale of big oil, international intrigue, charismatic leadership, class struggle, revolution and ultimately, the hopes of people for real democracy."

Geography geography OF JAMAICA. The islands of the Caribbean look like stepping stones of venezuela in South America to the peninsula of Florida in North America. http://www.discoverjamaica.com/gleaner/discover/geography/geography.htm
Extractions: GEOGRAPHY OF JAMAICA The islands of the Caribbean look like stepping stones stretching in an arc from the western end of Venezuela in South America to the peninsula of Florida in North America. The Caribbean islands are divided into two groups: The Greater Antilles: Forming the northern part of the arc are four large islands, Cuba, Hispaniola (made up of Haiti and the Dominican Republic), Jamaica and Puerto Rico. The Lesser Antilles: The eastern end of the arc consists of the smaller islands which together form the Lesser Antilles. These include the West Indian islands of St. Kitts, Nevis, Anguilla, Antigua, Montserrat (this group is called the Leeward Islands), Grenada, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Dominica (This group is called the Windward Islands), Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago and the French islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe. The islands vary widely in size, ranging from Cuba and Hispaniola, by far the largest, to the tiny islands of the Grenadines. Those which have English as their official language and are members of the Commonwealth are usually referred to as the West Indies. The body of water bounded by these islands and the northern coast of South America is the Caribbean Sea Almost at the centre of the Caribbean Sea, Jamaica lies 150 kilometres (90 miles) south of Cuba and 160 kilometres (100 miles) west of Haiti, the two nearest countries. The closest point to Jamaica in South America is Cartagena in Colombia, a distance of 710 kilometres (445 miles) almost due south The latitude and longitude of the capital, Kingston, are about 18 degrees N and 78 degrees W.
