Geography
Honduras is bordered by the Caribbean Sea to the north, Nicaragua to the east and southeast, the Pacific Ocean to the south, El Salvador to the southwest and Guatemala to the west. It is a mountainous country with numerous pools switched on. The highest point is the Cerro Las Minas with 2,849 m. The swampy Caribbean coast is lined with lagoons and forms the coastal plain of Mosquitia in the northeast, which is named after the indigenous people of the Misquito. The coast on the Caribbean Sea is about 600 km long, the Honduran part of the Pacific coast (about 80 km) is limited to the Gulf of Fonseca. Honduras also includes the Islas de la Bahía in the Caribbean Sea and the Islas del Cisne (Swan Islands; 5 km2).
The tropical climate is constantly influenced by the northeast trade winds. There are two rainy seasons from May to July and from September to October. The north of the country is repeatedly devastated by hurricanes. The worst were Hurricane Fifi 1974 and Hurricane Mitch 1998, each with thousands of deaths. Droughts and floods as a result of hurricanes are common. With increasing altitude, the temperatures decrease, combined with stronger seasonal fluctuations. On the north coast they average 26 ° C, on the Pacific over 28 ° C, in the mountains between 15 ° C and 24 ° C. The tropical lowland rainforest changes into mountain and cloud forest with increasing altitude. In the drier areas, dry forest and bush predominate, in the little developed Mosquitia pine and swamp palm trees.
After extensive deforestation, only about 25% of the country’s area is covered with tropical rainforest. The stock is preserved by nature parks and protected areas, the area of which makes up about 30% of the national territory. Because of its unique flora and fauna, the Río Plátano biosphere reserve in the north-east of the country is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The more than 5,000 km² reserve stretches from the Caribbean coast to an altitude of over 1,300 m, has the last inaccessible tropical rainforests and gallery forests in Central America and is the habitat of around 2,000 indigenous peoples who have been able to preserve their traditional way of life here. It is also a retreat for endangered species such as macaws, jaguars, puma and tapirs. Reptiles, insects and birds have a great endemic biodiversity, which means that many species are only found in Honduras.
Population and Religion
About 90% of the population consists of descendants from the connection between European immigrants and members of the indigenous peoples (mestizos, German: mestizos). Around 7% are of indigenous origin, mainly descendants of the Maya and other indigenous peoples. Misquitos and descendants of African slaves live on the Caribbean coast. Also represented are the Garífuna, descendants from the connection of slaves of West African origin with Caribs from the Antilles. In addition to Spanish, colloquial languages are several indigenous languages, and in the coastal region there is also a Creole-colored English. With 85 residents per km 2, the country is relatively sparsely populated. The main settlements are in the north-west and south of the country. Most metropolitan areas are the capital Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula.
Around half of the population lives below the poverty line. Many Hondurans therefore leave the country and work as migrant workers, mainly in the USA. Life in Honduras can be very dangerous and unsafe. It has one of the highest homicide rates in the world. There are murders, robberies, rapes, break-ins and kidnappings every day. The violence is worst in the slums of the larger cities.
46% of Hondurans belong to the Catholic Church, 41% to Reformed denominations. Other faith groups make up about 3% of the population. Non-Christian, numerically small religious minorities make up the Baha’is, Muslims and Jews. Elements of traditional indigenous religiosity have been preserved among the predominantly Christianized indigenous population. About 9% cannot be assigned to any religion.
