1. Ma\u00efs:<\/strong>\u00a0In Peru worden meer dan 55 ma\u00efsvari\u00ebteiten verbouwd, wat het hoogste aantal vari\u00ebteiten ter wereld is. Als gevolg hiervan kun je in Peru ma\u00efs krijgen in bijna elke denkbare kleur - inclusief geel, roze, paars, rood, bruin, wit en zwart!<\/p>\n

2. Aardappelen:<\/strong>\u00a0De aardappel komt oorspronkelijk uit Peru en vandaag de dag zijn er meer dan 3000 vari\u00ebteiten in het land. Een oud gezegde onder trotse Peruanen is \"Soy mas Peruano que la papa\", wat betekent: \"Ik ben Peruaanser dan een aardappel\".<\/p>\n

3. Gegrilde cavia's:<\/strong>\u00a0Cavia<\/a> is een traditioneel gerecht in Peru, knapperig gebakken geserveerd met het hele ding - kop, staart en poten. In het Peruaans worden cavia's 'cuy' genoemd omdat ze het geluid \"cuy, cuy\" maken. De cavia's worden gegrild en meestal geserveerd met gekookte aardappelen en eventueel andere bijgerechten zoals paprika of bonen.<\/p>\n

4. Natuurlijke hulpbronnen:<\/strong>\u00a0Peru is 's werelds 6e grootste koffieproducent en ook 's werelds 6e grootste producent van goud. Daarnaast is Peru \u00e9\u00e9n van 's werelds grootste producenten van zilver, koper, lood en zink. Peru heeft ook een van 's werelds oudste olie-industrie\u00ebn en produceert een aantal van 's werelds beste katoen (Pima en Tanguis).<\/p>\n

5. Nationale drank :<\/strong>\u00a0Peru's nationale drankje heet 'Pisco sour' en wordt gemaakt van Pisco brandewijn, citroenen, suiker, water, eieren, ijs en overgoten met bitters.<\/p>\n

Feit: In Peru is gegrilde cavia een traditioneel gerecht dat meestal wordt gegeten met gekookte aardappelen.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. Cerro Blanco:<\/strong>\u00a0De hoogste zandduin ter wereld heet Cerro Blanco en ligt in de Sechura-woestijn in Peru. Van boven naar beneden meet hij 1.176 meter!<\/p>\n

7. Het vleesgeworden koninkrijk:<\/strong>\u00a0Het Incarijk ontstond in de 14e eeuw en had zijn hoofdkwartier in de stad Cusco, in het zuiden van Peru. De Spanjaarden arriveerden in Cusco in 1533 en maakten het deel van hun rijk. In 1535 stichtten de Spanjaarden de huidige hoofdstad Lima<\/p>\n

8. Lima:<\/strong>\u00a0Meer dan 25% van de bevolking van Peru woont momenteel in Lima. De bevolking bestaat voornamelijk uit Peruanen die afstammen van Europeanen of de zogenaamde 'mestits' (d.w.z. een mix van de oorspronkelijke indianen en de Europese buitenstaanders).<\/p>\n

9. Iquitos:<\/strong>\u00a0De hooglanden in en rond de Andes beslaan 2\/3 van de oppervlakte van het land en worden bijna uitsluitend bewoond door indianen die Quechua spreken (dezelfde taal die door de Inca's werd gesproken). Ten oosten van de Andes ligt een dunbevolkte jungle waar de grootste stad 'Iquitos' heet. De stad is praktisch alleen bereikbaar met oceaanboten, die ongeveer 3700 km over de rivieren van de Amazone moeten afleggen om er te komen.<\/p>\n

10. <\/strong>Peru vandaag:<\/strong>\u00a0De recente geschiedenis van Peru heeft afwisselend perioden van democratie en dictatuur gekend. De armoede onder de inheemse bevolking gaf aanleiding tot de guerrillabeweging Sendero Luminoso (Lichtend Pad), die bijna volledig werd neergeslagen. Natuurlijk heeft dit de problemen van armoede en drugsproductie niet opgelost.<\/p>\n
