The waterfall has been known as the "Angel Falls" since the mid-20th century; they are named after Jimmie Angel, a US aviator, who was the first person to fly over the falls. Angel's ashes were scattered over the falls on July 2, 1960.

Venezuela’s economy is dominated by the oil industry, and it has the largest proven reserves of crude oil in the world. President Hugo Chavez, who was elected in 1998 on a populist platform, consolidated state control

over the economy and nationalized its telephone and electricity companies. Chavez was succeeded upon his death by his vice president,

Nicolas Maduro, who was elected president in 2013.President Maduro’s government has faced ongoing protests and civil

unrest since the beginning of 2014. There are growing signs that Maduro’s support in the region is dwindling, as neighboring countries

have expressed concern about his government’s response to the crisis, including the aggressive treatment of protesters.
