They constitute anywhere from 41.52% to 62.05% of Bolivia's population,^[2][3][4][5] depending on different estimates, and they belong to 36 recognized ethnic groups. Aymara and Quechua are the largest groups.^[6] The geography of Bolivia includes the Andes, the Gran Chaco, the Yungas, the Chiquitania and the Amazon Rainforest.
