The joropo, also called música llanera (Spanish for "music of the Llanos"), is a musical style resembling the fandango, and an accompanying dance. It originated in Venezuelan and Colombian territory, and has African, Native South American, and European influences. There are different joropo variants: tuyero, oriental, and llanero.[1][2] It is a fundamental genre of Venezuelan música criolla (creole music). It is also the most popular "folk rhythm": the well-known song "Alma Llanera" is a joropo, considered the unofficial national anthem of Venezuela.

In 1882 it became Venezuela's national dance. Formerly, the Spanish word joropo meant "a party", but now it has come to mean a type of music and dance that identifies Venezuelans. In the 18th century, the llaneros started using the word joropo instead of the word fandango, which was used at the time for party and dance.
