Do you know Colombia, a country in South America? In the October 1940 issue of National Geographic, there was an article by Luis Marden about Colombia at that time, complete with beautiful pictures! It must be known that that era was the third year after the outbreak of the Lugou Bridge Incident, the most difficult period of China's War of Resistance Against Japan. At that time, Colombia had already achieved independence, and the walls built by Spanish colonists in the sixteenth century left by the capital Bogotá could accommodate 8 cars at the same time! The Indians were slaughtered by the Spanish colonists, and there was not much left. Their floating villages were interesting, but unfortunately they all disappeared. The steamboat traveling on the river was imported from the United States, which is the same model of the famous American writer Mark Twain! At that time, wild animals were not protected, and jaguar furs were bought and sold freely. Colombia is the world's largest source of emeralds, with 453 in this crown! The caps of the Colombian army were in the Prussian style. Interestingly, after World War I, the Germans found Prussian military caps easy to identify and target by enemy forces, so they sold them to South American countries after World War I.
