You can learn about the geography of South America by visiting Owl & Mouse. Owl & Mouse provides easy maps to practice with:
(1) Interactive maps
These teach you country names and capitals. When you leave the cursor in place ("hover") over a country, the country's name and capital appear near the cursor:
