More about Belize
Belize is bordered by the Caribbean Sea to the east, Mexico to the north, and Guatemala to the west and south.
The south of the country is traversed by the Maya Mountains (Victoria Peak 1,122 m above sea level), which are made up of folded gneiss and schists, in a northeast-southwest direction. Large parts of the north are covered by a heavily disintegrated hill country (below 100 m above sea level) made of chalk limestone. Swampy alluvial plains extend up to 75 km (in the north) from the lagoon-rich coast inland. In front of it are hundreds of coral islands (cays) and reefs (UNESCO World Natural Heritage).
Climate
The country is subject to the year-round influence of the northeast trade winds (Passats); the rainy season lasts from May to November and is often accompanied by cyclones from July. The monthly temperatures fluctuate between 24 ° C and 27 ° C, the annual precipitation in the tropical south is 4,450 mm, in the subtropical north only 1,290 mm.
Vegetation
While the mountains are covered with tropical deciduous forests (including mahogany, Mexican cedar, campech wood) and pine forests (pitchpine), the north has a changing mosaic of forest and palm swamps in the plains and palm savannas in the hill country. Mangrove vegetation makes the 320 km long coast relatively inaccessible.
Population
The population is 53% mestizo. 26% are Creoles (descendants of African slaves). 11% of the Belizeans are indigenous (mostly Maya), 6% Garifuna, whose ancestors were deported from Saint Vincent (Caribs) by the English in 1796, the remainder are mostly descendants of immigrants from the USA, Great Britain, Portugal, India and China. In addition to English, Spanish, an English Creole and Mayan languages are also spoken. With 16 residents / km 2, the country is one of the Central American states with the lowest population density. The share of the urban population is 44% (2017). Largest city is Belize City on the coast. The capital Belmopan is located inland on the northern foothills of the Maya Mountains.
