CAUTIN

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 559 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CAUTIN , a province of southern Chile, bounded N. by
Arauco
 ,
Malleco
  and Bio-Bio, E. by Argentina, S. by Valdivia, and W. by the Pacific. Its area is officially estimated at 5832 sq. m. Cautin lies within the temperate agricultural and forest region of the
south
 , and produces wheat, cattle, lumber, tan-bark and fruit. The state central railway from Santiago to Puerto Montt crosses the province from north to
south
 , and the Cautin, or Imperial, and Tolten rivers (the latter forming its southern boundary)
cross
  from
east
  to west, both affording excellent transportation facilities. The province once formed part of the territory occupied by the Araucanian Indians, and its present political existence
dates
  from 1887. Its population (1905) was 96,139, of whom a large percentage were European immigrants, principally Germans. The
capital
  is Temuco, on the Rio Cautin; pop. (1895) 7078. The
principal
  towns besides Temuco are Lautaro (3139) and Nueva Imperial (2179), both of historic
interest
  because they were fortified Spanish outposts in the
long
  struggle with the Araucanians.
