    The Andes Mountains, which cross the country from north to south, divide continental Ecuador into Costa (Coastal Lowlands Sierra Highlands) and Oriente (Amazon Region). The Galapagos archipelago constitutes the fourth distinctive region. Politically and administratively, Ecuador is divided in 22 provinces:
    5 on the Costa,
    10 on the Sierra,
    6 on the Oriente and,
    1 on Galapagos Islands. The Costa is located between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains, consisting of coastal lowlands and mountains. The Costa extends the length of the coast and offers beautiful unspoiled beaches and resorts and rich agricultural land. Province Capital GUAYAS Guayaquil ESMERALDAS Esmeraldas MANABI Portoviejo EL ORO Machala LOS RIOS Babahoyo The Sierra lies between the western and eastern ranges of the Andes Mountains - the Cordillera Occidental (Western Chain) and the Cordillera Oriental (the Eastern Chain). The Valley has been populated and its land cultivated for many centuries. Nestled in the valley is Quito, the capital of Ecuador. Of the two mountain ranges, the Cordillera Oriental is wider and higher; however

    GEOGRAPHY Natural regions. The coastal lowlands are the most populatedand economically important part of Ecuador. The Coastal Lowlands.
    http://www.ddg.com/LIS/aurelia/ecugeo1.htm
    GEOGRAPHY: Natural regions
    The country consists of three distinct geographical regions: the Pacific coastal lowlands in the west, the Highlands (Andes) in the center; and the eastern lowlands (Oriente). The last, which forms nearly half of the contry's area, is only sparsely populated. The coastal lowlands are the most populated and economically important part of Ecuador.
    The Coastal Lowlands
    The coastal lowlands are in general relatively flat, interspersed with low hills that spurs of the Andes. The most prominent is a line of hills reaching an altitude of approximately 750 meters (2,500 feet) that extendes to the coastal of Guayaquil. The northern part of the coastal lowlands is covered by a tropical rain forest, while in the south there is a rapid transition to the arid conditions that prevail also over the coastal region of Peru.
    The Highlands
    Two pararell ranges, a southern extension of the Colombian ranges-the Cordillera Occidental and the Cordillera Central- make up the highland region. The two ranges are separated by a sucession of ten main basins that form part of a long, deep rift valley. The intense volcanic activity characteristic of this rift valley has produced the discontinuities that resulted in a series of basins. Rising alongside the basins are thirty volcanoes, many of them active, with some of the world's highest, largest, and most beatiful snow-capped volcanic cones. These include Mount Chimborazo (20,561 feet) and Cotopaxi, the world's largest active volcano.

    INTRODUCTION
    Background: The "Republic of the Equator" was one of three countries that emerged from the collapse of Gran Colombia in 1830 (the others being Colombia and Venezuela). Between 1904 and 1942, Ecuador lost territories in a series of conflicts with its neighbors. A border war with Peru that flared in 1995 was resolved in 1999.

    Ecuador's Geography
    Ecuador is a very geographically varied country. It is about the same area of the US state of Nevada, or New Zealand, and a bit larger than the United Kingdom. It straddles the equator (for which it was named) on the West, Pacific Ocean, coast of South America. It borders two countries: Peru to the south and east, and Colombia to the north.
    There are three geographical regions: the coastal lowlands, mountain highlands and eastern jungle lowlands. The coastal lowlands used to be heavily forested, but much of that is gone now, due to agriculture and shrimp farms.
    The backbone of Ecuador is the Andean highlands down the center of the country. The highest peak is Chimborazo (6310 metres; 20,700 ft.), but the most famous is the Cotopaxi volcano, just south of Quito. Quito is the world's second highest capital behind La Paz, Bolivia, at an altitude of 2850 metres (9350 ft.). The highlands contain many different towns and markets to visit.
    The jungle, or Oriente as it is called by Ecuadorians, forms the upper basin of the Amazon jungle. There are many virgin rainforest areas, and the large Amazon River tributary, Rio Napo, cuts through the jungle. Oil exploitation and increased population are threats to this once unsettled area.

The Occidental and the Oriental Ranges are born from this mountain system as it divides in the province of Loja, forming plains and valleys along the Andean Corridor. Between the two ranges there is a plateau which reaches heights of three thousand meters. The Highlands Regions, commonly referred to as La Sierra, is made up of ten provinces, each of which have important peaks such as Chimborazo, the Illinizas, Cotopaxi, Cayambe, and Antisana.
