Facts on Honduras:
We only advertise a few days of the month, so it's hard to find us,
otherwise.
Introduction
Honduras
Top of Page
Once part of Spain's vast empire in the New World, Honduras
became an independent nation in 1821. After two and a half
decades of mostly military rule, a freely elected civilian
government came to power in 1982. During the 1980s, Honduras
proved a haven for anti-Sandinista contras fighting the
Marxist Nicaraguan Government and an ally to Salvadoran
Government forces fighting leftist guerrillas. The country
was devastated by Hurricane Mitch in 1998, which killed
about 5,600 people and caused approximately $2 billion in
damage.
