Esequibo is a region that used to belong to Venezuela, when Guyana was under British rule they stole it, they have been reclaiming it for as long as they exist under different circumstances but always the imperial powers denied it and kept it there. Recently it was discovered that Esequibo holds the biggest oil reserves in the world, so reclaiming them has become even more important. It is the Venezuelans' Malvinas.
