Extractions: Due to the outstanding natural beauty of Belize, it is unsurprising that many people are largely unaware of the cultural and the historical significance which this Central American country has to offer. Archaeological evidence suggests that the Mayan Civilisation first set foot in this country, as far back as 1500 BC; their remains in terms of physical artefacts as well as their cultural heritage are still very evident in Belize today. The modern culture of Belize has largely been driven by Mayan influence, including language, ethnicity and even pace of life. Today, the country of Belize is a democracy and has been fully independent from Britain, since 1981. Despite this, Queen Elizabeth II remains the head of state, but the country, does now have its own prime minister. The national language is English and the laws are largely based on English law, making this a popular destination for English travellers, due to there not being a language barrier to overcome. Although English is the official language, the Creoles, one of the largest ethnic groups, also have their own dialect. In some parts of the north of the country and to the west, Spanish is readily spoken, primarily due to the influences from Mexico. Other popular languages include Chinese, Lebanese, Hindi, Garifuna, Mennonite German and even Arabic.

Discussion Jump to: navigation search The Mestizo Culture âMestizoâ is a word that refers to people being from a mix descent of Spanish and Yucatan Mayan. They settled mainly in Northern Belize after the Guerra de las Castas in the Yucatan in 1848 (Naturalight Productions Ltd., 2007). Mestizo communities can be found in many different locations throughout Belize, such as; the districts of Corozal, Orange Walk, Cayo, and also the northern islands of Caye Caulker and San Pedro Ambergris Caye. The Mestizo culture represents nearly half the total population of Belize. At approximately 48 percent the Mestizos are the largest ethnic group in country. The Mestizos are also very much involved in the economy of Belize. Many of the people farm corn, as well as beans and pepper. In the Mestizo farm fields you will also find one of Belizeâs largest exports being grown as well, refined sugar, which is grown in sugar-cane fields.

Still feeling the sting from its endorsement, although tepid, of last year's controversial Medicare prescription program pushed through Congress by the Republican leadership and opposed by many rank-and-file AARP members, the lobbying group now wants to demonstrate a far less accommodating stance on policy matters the White House has on the agenda for its second term. In contrast to this open opposition to the radical restructuring of Social Security is the subdued, behind-the-scenes support being provided by lobbyists for the banking and securities industries, which will stand to benefit enormously from what could be described as a $2 trillion jobs program for their member firms. Fearing public backlash if they appear too eager for the overhaul to get underway, bankers and stockbrokers must craft an outward appearance of disinterest while at the same time making it clear to key lawmakers that they are highly interested in passage of the necessary legislation.
