Rondônia, Federative unit in northern Brazil
The state spans 237,754 square kilometers of land across western Amazon Basin, containing mountains, rivers, and forests at 277 meters above sea level.
The region transformed from Territory of Guaporé in 1943 to Rondônia Territory in 1956, finally achieving statehood status on January 4, 1982.
The population combines indigenous communities, Brazilian migrants from other states, and European descendants who maintain their traditional practices and languages.
The BR-364 highway connects the capital Porto Velho to other major cities, providing essential transportation routes for agriculture and commerce.
The Madeira-Mamoré Railroad, built in 1907 to bypass waterfalls, played a central role in the rubber trade that shaped the region.
