			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Coming up with a good list of interesting facts about Bolivia will take me a few revisions, I am sure, but it will be easier if you let me know if you agree or disagree with the list below:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bolivia has two capital cities: Sucre and La Paz. The president and congress reside in La Paz, while the supreme court resides in Sucre. Having two capitals is a consequence of a civil war that took place at the beginning of the 20th century.</li>
<li>Bolivia is a landlocked country. It lost its access to the Pacific ocean when it lost a war against Chile in the 1880&#8242;s.</li>
<li>Bolivia is a huge country, relatively speaking. It is about the size of California and Texas put together. It also has a small population, about 10 million people as of 2011.</li>
<li>Back in the 16th and 17th centuries, mines in the Bolivian city of Potosi became the source of a big chunk of the silver that Spain used to grow its empire. At its peak, Potosi had a population similar in size to the population of London and Paris.</li>
<li>The Uyuni salt flat, which turns into a shallow lake during the rainy season, is so vast and perfectly flat that satellite operators use it to calibrate their navigational instruments.</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;ll add more interesting facts about Bolivia based on your feedback and suggestions.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a title="Coca Colla" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/apr/14/coca-colla-real-thing-bolivia">Coca Colla</a>, a new soda made from the coca leaf, can now be purchased in Bolivia. I am still waiting for an official response from the The Coca Cola Company. Don&#8217;t forget to read a post I wrote a while ago which addresses whether <a href="http://www.boliviaweb.com/blog/index.php/2007/03/16/bolivian-coca-in-coca-cola/">coca leaves are part of the secret Coca Cola recipe</a>.</p>
