The Amazon Rainforest was a moist broadleaf forest in the Amazon Basin of South America. The area encompasses seven million square kilometers (1.2 billion acres), though the forest itself occupied some 5.5 million square kilometers, located within nine nations: Brazil (with 60 percent of the rainforest), Colombia, Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. States or departments in four nations bear the name Amazonas after it. The Amazon represented over half of the planet's rainforests and comprised the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world. | The Amazon Rainforest was a moist broadleaf forest in the Amazon Basin of South America.
