\"GEOGRAPHIE<\/a>L’Equateur<\/span> se divise en trois r\u00e9gions g\u00e9ographiques tout \u00e0 fait distinctes : la Costa, la Sierra et Oriente, sans oublier les \u00eeles Galapagos<\/a>. Toutes ces r\u00e9gions confondues couvrent une superficie totale de 270.670 km2.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
A l’ouest, la basse plaine c\u00f4tiere, commun\u00e9ment appel\u00e9e "la Costa", longe la cordill\u00e8re des Andes et s’\u00e9tend en bordure de l’oc\u00e9an Pacifique sur toute la longueur de pays, couvrant une superficie de 70.000 km2 de paysage changeants et de v\u00e9getations diverses compte tenu des fluctuations climatiques. La largeur de cette plaine c\u00f4ti\u00e8re varie de 30 km \u00e0 200 km.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Comportant deux cha\u00eenes de montagnes parall\u00e8les (cordilli\u00e8re Occidentales et cordill\u00e8re Royale) qui traversent le pays du nord au sud, la Sierra regroupe environ 60% de la population \u00e9quatorienne et est jalonn\u00e9e de plus de 30 volcans fort impressionnants qui culminent \u00e0 plus de 5.000m, notamment le Cotopaxi (5.578m), le Chimborazo (6.300m). Ces volcans sont entour\u00e9s de nombreux autres sommets de moindre importance et forment un massif volcanique connu sous le nom d’avenue des volcans. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
La r\u00e9gion de l’Oriente, situ\u00e9e \u00e0 l’Est de la cordilll\u00e8re Royale, fait partie du bassin Amazonien. Bien que cette r\u00e9gion occupe plus de la moiti\u00e9 du territoire \u00e9quatorien, celle-ci compte moins de 10% de la population totale du pays. De petits villages sont reli\u00e9s entre eux par un vaste r\u00e9seau fluvial o\u00f9 de petites embarcations naviguent ais\u00e9ment. Touefois, la d\u00e9couverte de p\u00e9trole \u00e0 Lago Agr\u00edo en 1967 a n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 la construction d’une route qui traverse la Sierra jusqu’\u00e0 Quito.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Rendu c\u00e9l\u00e9bre par les recherches du biologiste britannique Charles Darwin, l’archipel des Gal\u00e1pagos baigne dans les eaux de l’oc\u00e9an Pacifique \u00e0 quelque 1.000 km \u00e0 l’Ouest des c\u00f4tes Equatoriennes, et se compose de 15 \u00eeles et de 40 \u00eelots d’origine volcanique abritant de nobreuses esp\u00e8ces animales et v\u00e9g\u00e9tales fort int\u00e8ressantes et fascinantes, plusieurs d’entre elles \u00e9tant uniques au monde.<\/div>\n
