"The Andean States are a group of nations in South America that are defined by sharing a common geography (Andes mountain range) or culture such as the Quechua language and Andean cuisine which was primarily spread during the times of the Inca Empire, but also before and after it.
Politically speaking, Argentina and Chile are usually not considered part of the Andean States as they lack a strong native Andean heritage and are culturally more oriented towards Europe and they are not a members of the Andean Community of Nations (which Venezuela is in the process of leaving).
The Andes occupy the western part of South America, stretching through the following countries: Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina (not considered to be -geopolitically- an Andean State), Chile (not considered to be -geopolitically- an Andean State)." [Andean states. Wikipedia]
