The Galapagos Islands are in Ecuadorian Province.
To a group of islands 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador called The Galapagos Islands.
There are islands to the west called the galapagos islands but none to the east as that would be other land masses of south America (i.e Brazil, etc..)
Galapagos Islands
I assume you mean Charles Darwin. A collection of volcanic islands about 200 miles off the coast of Ecuador called the Galapagos Islands. Scrubby and wind swept though rather warm in climate.
Groups of islands in Latin America are commonly referred to as archipelagos. Some well-known examples include the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador and the Greater and Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean Sea.
People who live in Ecuador are called Ecuadorians
Because it is on the equator and Ecuador means equator on Spanish. :)
Ecuador is nearest the equator, as it is the only country in the world that is crossed by the equator line. Guatemala is further north.
I'm sorry to be the barer of bad news, but the islands supposedly used do not exist in real life. There are a few islands off the west coast of Ecuador who were used as role models for the Jurassic islands, called Isla Fernandia, Isla Isabella, Isla Guy Fawkes and Isla Baltra
People from Ecuador are labeled in Spanish as: "ecuatorianos" (masculine) & ecuatorianas (feminine).
The capital of Ecuador is called Quito. This is spelled the same way in English and in Spanish.
