Ciudad Bolívar, Administrative division in southeastern Venezuela.
Ciudad Bolívar stands at the junction of major waterways, encompassing 240,528 square kilometers of territory with varied landscapes from savannas to mountainous regions.
The Congress of Angostura in February 1819 marked a turning point for Venezuelan independence when Simón Bolívar gathered revolutionary leaders in this location.
The region maintains strong connections to indigenous communities, including Pemón, Yekuana-Sanemá, and Panare groups who preserve their traditional languages alongside Spanish.
The area connects to other Venezuelan states through the Northern Trunk Highway 19, while several airports facilitate transportation across this extensive territory.
The division contains substantial mineral deposits of iron, gold, and bauxite, contributing to Venezuela's industrial development through facilities like the Orinoco Steel Company.
