Belize is the only officially English speaking country in Central America.
Belize was a British colony for more than a century and was known as British Honduras until 1973.
It became an independent nation within The Commonwealth in 1981.
Belize is a member of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and the Sistema de Integración Centroamericana (SICA)
and considers itself to be culturally both Caribbean and Central American.
With 8,867 square miles (22,960 km²) of territory and only 297,651 people (Belize CSO, 2007 mid year est.),
the population density is the lowest in the Central American region and one of the lowest in the world.
