A Brief History of Costa Rica: A Gem of Central America
Nestled between Nicaragua and Panama, Costa Rica has a rich and diverse history that dates back thousands of years of indigenous inhabitation by four major indigenous tribes, the Caribs, Borucas, Chibchas and the Diquis. Costa Rica was colonized by Spain in the 16th century when Spanish conquistadors arrived on its shores. Over the centuries, the country has evolved into a modern democracy known for its natural beauty, eco-tourism, and friendly culture.
In 1948, Costa Rica abolished its army, becoming the first country in the world to do so, and redirected the funds towards education and health care. This bold move has paid off, making Costa Rica a leader in sustainable development and environmental conservation.
The country's lush rainforests, pristine beaches, and towering volcanoes have made it one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. In recent years, the rise of eco-tourism has fueled growth and created opportunities for travelers to experience the beauty and diversity of Costa Rica.
