About the country
COSTA RICA is a democratic republic. Under the 1949 constitution, all citizens are guaranteed equality before the law, the right to own property, the right of petititon and assembly, freedom of speech and the right of habeas corpus. A unique feature of Costa Rica is that it does not have an army. Costa Ricans decided there would be less chance for dictator coups without one, and so it has become the global model of democracy. During the last 50 years, the money that would have gone into the military has been spent on education. They have one of the highest literacy rates in the world.
Today Costa Rica has the highest standard of living in Central America, the second lowest birth rate and the greatest degree of economic and social advance.
