Well at school in Peru they teach you this but use a different system, using indigenous terms rather than Spanish "Costa or Chala" for the sea level, then Yunga higher up , then Quechua, then Suni or Jalca, Puna, Janca (the highest point) and then one the other side of the andes, on the eastern side where the amazon rain forest begings, there was Rupa rupa or high jungle and then Omagua or low jungle.
Watching stars and noticing the connection between clouds and rainfall later in the season... Its amazing - but also makes you wonder what other connecting they made that did not mean anything...
Not me. I wonder how much more they knew that was then lost, as discovery & exploration of the "new" world continued without rest or respite for the native peoples. So much , everything , was lost , to greed, under the guise of religion.
3:20. Please notice, this distinctions happen only around the Equator, by the side of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Venezuela. Brazil is another language, culture and climate, and the rest of *South* America a whole array of different climates. *Latin* America is a cultural entity, which includes all countries that speak languages issued from Latin: almost every country from Mexico downwards. Chilean here. Currently in Argentina. We have a long stretch of the Andes right between us, they conform Chile's identity, and we don't use such altitude distinctions. Just in case you don't know, the tropical part of Argentina is very far away from the Andes, and Chile has no tropical part whatsoever.
The Irish Potato Famine had almost nothing to do with potatoes. It occurred because English landowners in Ireland were exploiting Irish peasants to the point that all the Irish had left was potatoes. Then when the potato crop failed, the English continued to export food (food produced by the starving Irish peasants, mind you) rather than avert the famine. The failure of the potato crop was the inciting incident of the famine, but the social/economic conditions of expropriation were necessary to turn a survivable crop failure into a lethal famine. Famines rarely happen because of natural disasters. Natural disasters merely reveal the precarity inherent in exploitative economic systems in which the workers do not reap what they sow.
Will the next video describe the attributes of the different climates? :) somewhere that doesn't go bellow 10 degrees in the winter, and doesn't go above 25 degrees in the summer would be the ideal place to live. But that also has enough rainfall for deciduos forests.
I thought el niño conditions brought rain to Peru. Cold upwelling releases less moisture and heat into the atmosphere (similar to northern California) and therefore during el niño the eastern pacific is warmer and releases more moisture into the air. Whereas la niña brings drought to Peru. Am I missing something
I love this channel & how they teach us, but how widespread is that pattern on her shirt? I say this because my wife had that exact thing over twenty years ago & it's very distinct & I for one, tend to remember weird things, like this for some reason.
Hey! I'm Bolivian and I loved the clothes of Andean people in the animation. It was very accurate.
Hola

I’m just 10 years old,last year i hated science,but wen i started tô watch your channel,I loved science,so,thank you

Potatos can grow above the arctic circle. We do so in northern Norway :)
The way she says Tierra 😌👌
She got 'gratin' spot on too.
3:36 about 900 meters, turn right.

Thank you for getting the map of Ukraine correctly. Hugely important in geography course.
Absolutely well done and definitely keep it up!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
I think it depends on country. In Poland we use Okołowicz's classification.
The titicaca lake origin is so funny and memorable.
Good luck and more power to Crash Course!
Alize smile is simply infectious😀
Crash Course is always the best ✨.

Peru! My beautiful country

Wow, this was super handy for me to grasp climate!
For the Chilean side, add these peoples: Atacama (Kunza, Likanataí), Chinchorro, Chango and Diaguita.
Also, you gotta love potatoes
Mmmm, taters! ... I wonder how many names there are for the humble spud? LoL, that's two so far...
Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew
Yup, french fries come from potatoes....🙃🙃
Thx for your extraordinary episode!
thank you so much for this it helped the better understanding!
Great course! 😁
One of my favorite assignments when I was in uni was studying data from meteorological stations and looking at the classifications of those zones
It's hysterical that it's necessary to explain the difference between weather and climate.

0:55 You mean, going CHOM CHOMS?
why is this host reminding me so much of DJ Tanner?
The humble potato
thank you this was very helpful
Nice, colorful shirt.
Delicious dishes
I was about to correct you but then I realized that they are in the Southern hemisphere.
Potato’s are grown in the U.K. as well
All around the world mate, they said as much in the video.
No way
🥔 🥔 🥔 🥔
I'm glad you didn't go potatoes over bananas, since that wouldn't make sense.
Shared!!!!!
Nice
POTATOES!! 🥔🥔🥔🍠🍠🍠 🍟🍟🍟
While Onions may be the most most consumed food by weight alone, the potato comes in a close second.
“Let’s go bananas about potato’s”
Umm you mean CHOM CHOMS?
Here because of Happy Potato
potato gang! 🥔
"the root of our potato story"
Alizé ಠ_ಠ
Please can you include metric equivalents for units please; most of the rest of the world uses metric...
Nooooooooooooooooo! CHOM CHOMS!
I wish they would do early the climate change episode.
You should always use metric.
Who sang "Lake Titicaca" from the Animanics.... hashtag no shame!
geography. :O
❤❤👍
Hmm
Hi
Ah. The spud.
French fries are actually belgian fries
Sadly, The earth's personality got more moodier.
It's 3:15AM in India
I hope you get some sleep!
is this video to pay tribute to potato girl?
Why did you mention salchipapas when you could've mentioned lomo saltado instead? I expected better of you, CrashCourse!
i know how i classify them "i'm in heaven" and fuck it's cold"
