La Paz
La Paz ist der Regierungssitz Boliviens. Mit einer Höhe von 3200 bis 4100 m ist die Stadt der höchstgelegene Regierungssitz der Erde.
Der volle Name der Stadt lautete zunächst Nuestra Señora de La Paz wegen eines verhinderten Aufstandes der indigenen Ureinwohner; den heutigen Namen erhielt sie 1825 zum Gedenken an die siegreiche Schlacht bei Ayacucho im Unabhängigkeitskrieg gegen die Spanier. La Paz ist auch Hauptstadt des Departamentos La Paz.
