People From Neuilly-sur-Seine
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility.

The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Rio Guaviare
The Guaviare is a tributary of the Orinoco in Colombia. It flows together with the upper Orinoco (until here also called RÃo Parágua), which it clearly surpasses in length (altogether about 1760 km) and water flow. Thus, the Guaviare is hydrologically the main stream of the Orinoco system. The Guaviare has its source in two other rivers, the Ariari and the Guayabero, which in turn have their own sources in the eastern part of the Andes. At long, it is the longest tributary of the Orinoco and is navigable for of its total length. The Guaviare is considered the border between the Llanos and the Amazon Rainforest.
