A blank map of Colombia with two rings
Bogotá is a narrow strip inside Cundinamarca, and the islands of San Andrés and Providencia lie far out in the Caribbean, so the map draws them in a box at the upper left. Both carry rings.
Tell students the San Andrés box is not its real place: the islands lie about 700 km north-west, off the coast of Nicaragua.
