The Andean region, nearly 30% of the country, passes from the high plateau of the Bolivian border on the South to the western Argentina. In the Andes there are more than 1800 volcanoes, about 28 of which are still considered as active. Patagonia includes all area from Black Rio to the southernmost tip of the continent or about 777 000 sq.km (300 000 quarter. Miles).
