Okwangoku, imithetho edibene nempilo yezidingo zezityalo zenza kubenzima ukuthengisela lamazwe. Ilizwe lase Peru, njenge linye lamazwe ayimveliso kwi hemisphere, lilo elikukhuphiswa kakhulu nelizwe lo Mzantsi Afrika, zombini ngokwa manani wemveliso nexesha, ekuthengiseni i-avocado kwintengiso ye nothern hemisphere.
