FALCON

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 138 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
FALCON , the most northern state of
Venezuela
 , with an extensive
coast
  line on the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of
Venezuela
 . Pop. (1905 est.) 173,968. It lies between the Caribbean on the N. and the state of
Lara
  on the S., with Zulia and the Gulf of Venezuela on the W. Its surface is much broken by irregular ranges of low mountains, and extensive areas on the
coast
  are sandy plains and tropical swamps. The
climate
  is, hot, but, being tempered by the
trade
  winds, is not considered unhealthy except in the swampy districts. The state is sparsely settled and has no large towns, its
capital
 , Coro, being important chiefly because of its
history
 , and as the entrep6t for an extensive inland
district
 . The only
port
  in the state is La Vela de Coro, on a small bay of the same name, 7 M. E. of the
capital
 , with which it is connected by railway.
