Thought it would be cool to research El Salvador… (I know I’m a nerd and PROUD of it!) This is what I found…
::El Salvador::
POPULATION: El Salv is the smallest and most dense country in Central America. It’s southern boarder hits the Pacific Ocean. It currently ranks 12th out of Latin American countries (20 or 26) and 4th in Central America (7) for the Human development Index (a composite statistic used to rank countries in human development based on basic life expectancy, education and income indices). It is a Spanish speaking country with a large influence of Roman Catholicism.
TOPOGRAPHY &WEATHER: Most land is covered by mountains…………… The weather in April generally has highs in mid-90s and lows in mid-70s.
ISSUES: Outside of the breath-taking beauty of El Salv, internally El Salv is facing much violence. It is one of the most violent countries in the world because of its organized crime, gang activity, militarization, political repression and poverty according to (www.share-ElSalvador.org)..
