\"\"C<\/font><\/strong>hile is best understood as a land of ethnic diversity. The father of Chile, Bernardo O’Higgins, was the son of an Irish immigrant. The founder of Santiago, Pedro de Valdivia, was a Spaniard, and the spirit of Chile is derived from Lautaro, the Mapuche chief who defeated the Spaniards. Chileans are descendants of Mapuches, French, Germans, British, Italians, Scandinavians, and Asians. According to the US Department of State, the population of Chile is around 16 million. Santiago houses 40% of the total population and only 15% of the population lives in rural areas.<\/p>\n

The official language is Spanish, but English is spoken in prominent business environments. <\/p>\n
