thin is a good description honestly, Snow in the Andes by the morning, and beach by the afternoon.
I like it here 10/10, would be born here again.

It's not very thick, it is thin, but it's extremely long. Chile that is.
Not many countries outside of Europe are as small east-to-west as Chile. Even in Europe the major countries like France, Germany, Spain and even the UK are bigger east-to-west. Italy is bigger east-to-west, but mostly because it's angled. If it were oriented vertically like Chile it would be thinner along most of the boot, but still wider than Chile along the top from the coast near Nice to Venice.
Also worth noting that although the UK isn't all that wide, it has major port cities on both east and west coasts. Chile has an inhospitable mountain range on its eastern side, so really the population is concentrated in an area that's much thinner than the geographic boundaries of the country.
Looks at Norway, 8.3km at the narrowest
