Investment by amish treehuggers who pioneered in ecoturism.
If I remember right, they abolished the army after a civil war. Just by doing that, they made a difference in the region.

To be fair getting taken over by their own armies is the #1 cause of Latin American countries getting cucked by America.

Costa Rica just skipped a step because they're extra pathetic I guess

2000 dead is a meme
If you ask old people about the battles they will tell you the exact name of those who died

i sure as hell haven't seen any
