Antofagasta — The area was part of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, not the Viceroyalty of Peru, before Bolivian independence.

Aracaju — The entry states the metropolitan area includes Laranjeiras and Maruim, but the official Metropolitan Region of Aracaju does not include these municipalities.
Arica — The entry states 'Arica and Parinacot' but the correct name is 'Arica y Parinacota Region'
Arica — The entry says the city's name comes from the Kunza term arisca, meaning 'new bay', but this etymology is not widely confirmed and the origin is uncertain, often attributed to Aymara instead.
