#1 Guatemala is a strange little country. The northern half is jungle preserve, punctuated with towns. They had an ungodly long civil war, that lasted from 1960-1996.

Half the people look like they came off a Mayan codex, and the other half look like ancient Olmecs.

If the Germans managed the place, it would be heavenly. But the reason it exists, I think, is because the people just could not stand the people of Honduras, Belize or Mexico, nor could those peoples stand the Guatemalans.
