of Suriname Background:
Independence from the Netherlands was granted in 1975. Five years later the civilian government was replaced by a military regime that soon declared a socialist republic. It continued to rule through a succession of nominally civilian administrations until 1987, when international pressure finally brought about a democratic election. In 1989, the military overthrew the civilian government, but a democratically elected government returned to power in 1991.

ESTIMATED 2000 POPULATION: Suriname is located along the northeast coast of South America. It is bound by Guyana to the west, French Guiana to the east, Brazil to the south and the Atlantic Ocean to the north. The country is divided into four distinct natural regions. (1.) The coastal belt which accounts for 16% of the land area. (2.) An intermediate plain between the coastal belt that runs to the edge of the vast rain forest region. (3.) The mountainous rain forest region which rises to the country's highest point the Wilhelmina Gebergte Massif and this region also .comprises 75% of the land area. (4.) A high savannah in the southwest. The principal rivers are the Corantyne, Nickerie, Copename, Saramacca, Suriname, Commewijne and Marauijne. Major Cities (pop. est.); Paramaribo 68,000, Nieuw Nickerie 6,100, Meerzorg 5,400, Marienburg 3,600 (1980). Land Use; forested 96%, pastures and agricultural-cultivated 0.5%, other 3.5% (1993). CLIMATE: Suriname has a tropical climate that is characterized by high rainfall, high humidity and hot temperatures which are modified by the NE trade winds. There are four seasons, two dry seasons from August to November and February to April as well as two wet seasons from April to August and November to February, although none of the seasons are completely wet or dry.

    Geography and Geographical Features
    Reportedly, the physical beauty of the region fascinated the first Europeans who traveled to the Caribbean. These Spaniards in Columbus' ships described the Caribbean as green and fertile, cooled by the trade winds, with a climate of `perpetual spring'. The lush vegetation, types of fruits and the flora and fauna were portrayed with great enthusiasm. The Caribbean region, located in the tropics, extends in a broad arc of over 4000 km from the Bahamas in the north to Guyana and Suriname in the south. The region also includes, based on historical factors, Belize which is in Central America bordering Mexico and Guatemala. The countries are widely different in physical and population size as well as landforms and geology. Three marine geographical features, often intermixed, are evident in the sweep of the Caribbean archipelago and in the mainland territories. There is first an outer ring of mainly coral islands with white sand beaches from The Bahamas, to the Turks and Caicos, the Cayman Islands and embracing parts of Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, the eastern parts of Guadeloupe, Martinique, St. Lucia, the Grenadines, parts of Grenada, Tobago and Barbados. The second inner ring of more volcanic islands, with black sands, includes the islands of the Greater Antilles - Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. The inner ring also includes St. Kitts, the western parts of Guadeloupe, Dominica, parts of St. Lucia, St. Vincent, and parts of Grenada. The third distinct feature is the alluvial coast of Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana (Cayenne) on the South American mainland between the vast estuaries of the Orinoco and the Amazon.
