AI overview

The Mapuche are an Indigenous people living in south-central Chile and southwestern Argentina who share a common language (Mapudungun), culture, and social structures across various distinct groups. They represent a significant portion of Chile's Indigenous population today, though their ancestral homelands once stretched across a much larger territory from the Choapa Valley to Patagonia.
