Morona Santiago (Spanish pronunciation:[moˈɾonasanˈtjaɣo]) is a province in Ecuador. The province was established on February 24, 1954. The capital is Macas.
Economy
The provincial economy is industrially unexploited to its potential due to poor means of transportation. Its economy relies largely on the tourist sector of the rain forest. The Sangay National Park and the indigenous town of Shuara are some of its main attractions.[citation needed]
The province is divided into 12 cantons. The following table lists each with its population at the 2001 census, its area in square kilometres (km²), and the name of the canton seat or capital.[4]
