JAMM : Costa Rica's Culture Quilt

http://www.eastasiacenter.net/jamm/stories/storyReader$732

Extractions: It took awhile to see it - I kept thinking it was hiding behind the tight jeans made in sweatshops, the telenovelas made anywhere in Latin America other, the cars from Europe, or the U.S. style or fast-food restaurants. I kept searching for culture beyond the gallo pinto and the Tico (Costa Rican) slang of "maje" and "tuanis". I kept wondering about this "Pura Vida". Although I never discovered any evidence, maybe there are secret societies where elders hesitatingly initiate each knew generation. And in all likely hood, as a tourist I would not become aware of them. After all, naturally I am treated differently as an outsider, just as I am also treated differently because I am a woman, and probably because of my height, fair skin and hair. And nicely enough I am also awarded special treatment because of manners, my Spanish speaking abilities, and my sweet, un-threatening smile. My point - no one on the green brown gray earth is treated equally, despite the best efforts of idealists. And if there is a secret "Tico Society", most Costa Ricans probably don't know about it either.

The indigenous people lived in quite autonomous groups and were probably not more that 200,000 in total. Since the indigenous communities had very little power when the Spanish arrived, the Spanish settlers has had a great influence over the country's history. Directly related to this phenomenon is the fact that when the Spanish arrived, they brought with them many diseases that killed the few native people that existed. The area was named Costa Rica (the rich coast) by Columbus when he arrived. The natives he encountered were all so friendly and wore lots of gold. In the 1560's colonization was taking place. The first colonial settlement in Costa Rica was Cartago. It was situated in the central highlands because of its rich and fertile soil, and not along the coast as with many other colonial settlements.

http://www.cocori.com/library/crinfo/nutshel.htm

Extractions: Costa Rica is home to one of the oldest democracies in the Americas. The country has been noted for its friendliness and preoccupation with peace. Its policy of active neutrality has twice earned it the nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1987 this prestigious award was presented to then-president of the Republic Dr. Oscar Arias. This, the fact that over a quarter of its territory enjoys protection in the ever-growing network of national parks and reserves, its continued dedication to environmental protection, and many other reasons answer why Costa Rica has repeatedly been referred to as the Switzerland of the Americas. CLIMATE Two recognized seasons; commonly called the Dry Season (December to April) and the Wet Season (May to November). We prefer to call the "wet" season the Green Season because the countryside comes alive like the springtime in temperate climates. The Atlantic coast has no well-defined dry season.

A land of natural wonders, costa rica, dubbed by Christopher Columbus as Convivial inhabitants and scenic wonders truly define costa rica s culture.
http://info.iiepassport.org/Archive/CostaRicaIIE.html

Extractions: A land of natural wonders, Costa Rica, dubbed by Christopher Columbus as 'the rich coast', is situated between Nicaragua and Panama of Central America. The country prides itself as an ecotourism mecca, and boasts its geologic wonders of the Volcan Arenal and Rincon de la Vieja volcanoes. Costa Rica is speckled with sublime beach paradises, turtle and bird watching venues, and country wide walking trails. In 1501, Columbus landed in Costa Rica. In the years that followed, Costa Rica's indigenous people found their land swarming with European settlers, and for years the region achieved no prominence. Then, in 1808, coffee became the reigning ingredient that would redefine Costa Rica as a wealthy, independent nation. Nevertheless, it was coffee that would later ignite power struggles among the coffee-growing magnates. In 1856, President Juan Rafael Mora thwarted a U.S. invasion attempt, but it was this outside threat that raised Costa Rica's nationalism. Under General Tomas Guardia's leadership between 1870 and 1882, Costa Rica's foreign policies unraveled in addition to many of its societal principles, which are still regarded today. The 20th century found Costa Rica enjoying steady economic growth, and today the country continues to flourish under President Abel Pacheco's leadership.
