Costa Rica is a stable, democratic country located in Central America. This peaceful and exuberant
country abolished its army in 1948. Since then, the money which had been allocated to the military
was moved to improve education, health, and the conservation of natural resources.
Due to these events and the country’s reputation of being one of the most bio-diverse regions
in the world, Costa Rica is now an ideal vacation destination.
