Central American visit … 1. Belize

Abstract

Spanish Honduras, a neighbour, was in the news in September 1974 with 9,000 killed and 60,000 homeless from hurricane Fifi. No wonder hurricanes are the main topic of conversation in the former colony of British Honduras, as is the more temperate weather of UK in British homes. Well over a century ago the US ambassador to the Central American Federation visited what he subsequently described as the British Territory of Belize. Although like most artificial federations the CAF soon crumbled, and this country became known as British Honduras, in 1973 it renamed itself Belize.
