And what do you know about it? If you happen to be from Central America, exclude your own country. Otherwise, name at least one thing about the country you know the most about.

[Nicolás]

Costa Rica - we talked about bananas in geography...

Belize as i was going to live there for three months when i was younger.

 

[Xusein]

Panama, not only for the canal, but for the large skyscrapers of Panama City, being the southernmost country of North America, jungles, and beautiful people.

 

[PanaManiac]

GUATEMALA

Excluding my own country, I know the most about Guatemala. I will limit my sharing of that knowledge to three facts:

1-Guatemala City is the largest in Central America.
2-The country is home to the ancient Maya civilization.
3-It shares a common border with the most countries in the region*

Not to mention the capitals of all 7 countries, I know at least one thing about each, but I will allow others to be the first to share their knowledge of a given fact.

*Belize, El Salvador, Honduras and Mexico.

El Salvador

Although I wasn't actually born there, I have such close ties to Panama that saying anymore about it would sabotage the intent of the thread-starter. Hence, El Salvador, with the smallest land area, is the most densely populated country in the region and possibly of all the Americas.

 

[Slodi]

Panama.
Mostly thanks to the thread: WHAT IS PANAMA BEST KNOWN FOR?
Although I have been to Guatemala, Honduras and Costa Rica, I don't know about those countries as much as about Panama.

 

[DenverDane]

Have a friend in Nicaragua, which I have visited twice, and I also visited Costa Rica last year.

 

[Bitxofo]

Panamá, because of its channel.

[PanaManiac]

Panama and Costa Rica (as of 6/3/06) are tied with 9 apiece. The whole world knows about the Panama Canal! Would anyone care to say what he(she) knows about Costa Rica?

 

[Animo]

Costa Rica is known for its parrots/loros?

 

[Kuwait4Ever]

Panama of course

 

[ckm]

Panama because of the channel.

and Costa Rica because of the tourism.

 

[Dr. Dubai]

EL SALVADOR!
My friend just came back from living there for 2 years at the embassy. He told me they use the American dollar over there now. He talked about the El Salvador senery and how its economy is slowly recovering.

 

[Sirgarbagemann]

GUATEMALA! soul of the earth!

 

[skylinearth]

Panama due to its channel.
