BOLIVIA
Landlocked Bolivia has seen its share of internal conflict, including 200 coups and countercoups. It's one of the poorest and least-developed countries in South America. Poverty is widespread in the rural countryside, especially amongst indigenous communities, where the majority live on less than $2 (USD) per day. The rough terrain and epidemic of diabetes claims the limbs of thousands of people each year.
