%X Even though internal armed conflict has marked recent Colombian history, Colombia shows extraordinary economic stability and steady human-capital growth, which places it among the countries that lead the region’s development. Located at South-America’s northwestern corner, and in a tropical zone that touches the Equator, as well as being half way between both continental poles, Colombia’s location is geostrategic and favors commerce and communications. In addition to an incalculable natural diversity, as well as a wide range in climate and ecosystems, Colombia has resources for commercial development due to its proximity to the Panama Canal and to long coastlines that give onto the Pacific Ocean on the west and the Atlantic Ocean through the Caribbean Sea. All of these factors allow Colombia to be the entrance gate to South America and to have ports that face the rest of the Americas, Europe, and the Pacific Rim countries.
