ONLiNE UPSC · Accepted Answer

The Andes are the longest continental mountain range in the world, stretching over 7,000 km along the western edge of South America. This mountain range passes through seven countries:
● Venezuela
● Colombia
● Ecuador
● Peru
● Chile
● Bolivia
● Argentina
It doesn't extend into Uruguay, as the Amazon Rainforest lies to the east, separating the Andes from the rest of Brazil.
