About the time in Santiago
Around 181 people live in Santiago, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Santiago sits at latitude -5.06, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 59m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:22 and sunset at 06:21 local time, giving 11h 59m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-5.06, -79.87) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santiago.
