位於南美洲西北部，2022年的厄瓜多不是太順遂。年初遇到該國20年來最大洪災，引發土石流，最後導致數十人死亡。3月又發生大地震。6月則爆發「通膨暴動」。受到全球油價飆漲所致，厄瓜多油價也跟著飆漲，影響民生。上萬名厄瓜多原住民團體憤而上街進行大規模抗議活動，要求政府提供燃料補貼，但總統拒絕了抗議者的提案，並宣布全國進入緊急狀態。厄瓜多的治安不太好，監獄總是人滿為患，曾經爆發嚴重的監獄暴動，受刑人持刀槍火拼，導致350人死亡。

Ecuador is a country in northwestern South America and was ruled by the Spanish for nearly 300 years. As an OPEC member, Ecuador is among the top 3 exporters of oil in South America, but the economy has not been great. In 2019, a series of protests and riots broke out against austerity measures, including the cancellation of fuel subsidies. Government Debt to GDP in Ecuador was 63% in 2021. A right-wing president was elected, promising to revive an economy battered by the coronavirus pandemic. Ecuador is one of the world's top banana producers.
