The Amazonas State is the Federal district located further south of the country, only 0 º 40 'of Ecuador. The long sides would be in the meridian of longitude 63 º 20 º 'W and the two sides would be in the lower latitudes 0 ° 40'N, 60 º 15'N.

It is enclosed between Colombia, Brazil and the state of Bolivar. The capital is Puerto Ayacucho, along the Orinoco, downstream from the Atures, on the right bank.

Overall we note its limits: the north is the Dtto. Cedeño Bolivar State, Colombia to the west from the mouth of the goal to Atabapo, both in the Orinoco River and then upriver to the mouth of Atabapo Guasacavi at Milestones I and II, following a straight line to the milestones III and IV in Guainia, Deer Island and stream near the village of Victorino. Then follows the valley of Black River Guainia or down to the island of San Jose, where the border is a framework that in its 3 sides said Venezuela-Colombia-Brazil.

The southern border with the Federative Republic of Brazil is governed by the "Treaty of Limits and River Navigation" signed in 1860, which establishes a framework straight line from the border of El Carmen on the left bank of Black River to the waterfall Huá on Channel Maturacá, from here another line to the hill Cupi and beyond the limit is determined by the watershed (divortium Aquorum) of the Orinoco-Casiquiare basins with the Amazon River, passing the border through the mountains of La Fog, Tapira-sinned, and Parima Curupira. Venezuela-Brazil border has an area about 1,500 kms. (See boundary treaty).

Referring to the national boundary line inside the State of Amazonas with the State of Bolivar, we of the Territorial Law of the State Bolívar, 1902:

"Cataniapo River from its confluence with the Orinoco, upstream to its source; continues a straight line until you find the River Rising Sipapo, then this river upstream to their sources or ¬ southern southernmost you, hence a line of varied directions for dilating the peaks that form the diversion of the waters that fall into rivers and Manapiare Ventuari and passing through the top, lengthwise, of the Sierra Mato continues the high peaks of the Sierra Maigualida, past the headwaters of Ventuari continues by the heights that determines the Divorta aquarum of the Ventuari watersheds, and from a free East River from the headwaters of Avarimuta, part of the same rugged that forms the boundary of Venezuela and Brazil. "

By studying carefully the map of the States of Amazonas and Bolivar, we would conclude that this description of the boundaries should be changed, because it is inconsistent with the actual boundaries marked on maps between these two entities. Should also change the names of some mountains and rivers that are different from those of today.
