Crazy but True

Chile is over 4,300 kilometers long and averages under 180 kilometers wide. It stretches from the driest desert on Earth to glaciers and fjords near Antarctica, meaning a single country contains landscapes that have almost nothing in common. Some parts of its Atacama Desert have never recorded rainfall.
