TIME IS WATER - WAMPIS AUTONOMOUS GOVERNMENT.

The indigenous Wampis people have for thousands of years lived isolated in Peru’s rainforest, more than 1,500 kilometers (932 miles) and The Andes mountains between them and Peru’s capital, Lima. More than 15,000 indigenous Wampis people have been living dispersed over an area covering 1,3 million hectares and where the only routes for accessing trade and contact with the outside world are two main waterways — the Santiago and Morona rivers, or Kanus and Kankin in their mother tongue. But since the 1960s the interaction with outsiders has increased and more recently their territory has been under siege from private companies that want to extract the precious natural resources in the area without regards to the Wampis or the environment. (source)

The largest river on Earth is actually in the sky.

Indigenous peoples in the Peruvian Amazon have united and created the Wampis Nation – an autonomous territorial government – in order to defend their livelihood from the increasing pressure from extractive industries. Their autonomous government covers nearly an area the size of one-third of the Netherlands and more than 15,000 people are part of this one-of-a-kind initiative.
