periods of time. Colombia, unlike many Latin American countries, maintained a tradition of
civilian government and regular, free elections. [eng]

History of Colombia
Colombia remained a nation of paradoxes. The bearer of one of the
strongest democratic traditions in Latin America, it was also subject to recurrent bouts of
political violence and terrorism. A highly urbanized and industrialized country, its social structure
continued to be influenced by an elite that traced its lineage to an earlier, more agrarian period. [eng]

A Brief History of Colombia
The first Spanish settlement was founded in 1525 on the Caribbean coast. Bogotб was founded in 1538 by a company of Spanish soldiers looking for El Dorado. "New
Grenada," as Colombia was then called, became for a time Spain's principal source of gold. Emeralds, tobacco, and sugar cane were other sources of wealth. [eng]
