Costa Rica
Definition
A Central American country bordered by Nicaragua to the north, Panama to the southeast, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Caribbean Sea to the east, renowned for its biodiversity, volcanoes, beaches, and 'pura vida' (pure life) philosophy.
Literally translates to 'Rich Coast' in English, a name given by Spanish explorers in the early 16th century due to legends of gold along its shores.
