By: Alec Mason Logeman

Authors
• Isabel Allende – The House of the Spirits, a novel
• Pablo Neruda – Crepusculario, collection of poems
• Gabriela Mistral – Desolaciόn, a novel
Government
• Chile has a representative democratic republic, which is just like us! Or the U.S. Either way it works!
• This means they elect someone who is both head of state and head of government.
• They have three branches of government as well.
• Their legal system is civil law-based.
Cities
• SANITAGO! THE CAPITAL!
• Concepcion, which Alec giggled at.
• Antofagasta, which is also a sweet name.
Culture
• Many foods are influenced by Spanish cuisine.
• Soccer is the national sport, very popular.
• Polka is the national dance. Sometimes Alec listens to polka alone.
Tourists
• EASTER ISLAND! Which has very large heads. Like Alec-sized.
• Lake Villarica, close to the Villarica volcano. BOOM!
• San Marcos Cathedral, designed by Gustav Eiffel. The Eiffel Tower dude.
