Chile is a country located in the extreme southwest of the American continent. Before the arrival of the Spaniards in the 16th century, northern and central Chile was under Inca rule while independence Mapuche inhabited south-central Chile. Chile declared its independence from Spain February 12, 1818. In the War of the Pacific (1879-1883), Chile defeated Peru and Bolivia and won its current northern territory. It was not until the 1880s that the Mapuche were completely subjugated.
