Literally the Balkans of the Americas

No, Costa Ricans and Nicaraguans hate each other.

Mexicans

Worse, we are like the Central Asian 'stans of the Americas.

yes, the red and yellow fight each other but all okay with foreigners

Guatemala, Honduras, Salvador, and Nicaragua gets along, Costa Ricans and Panamanians hate them all and would rather be south american

cant say I blame them

FUCK Hondureans

Oh, so that's where Costa Rica and Nicaragua
are...

Why do these people have to be close to the USA?

Why is life so cruel?

Why so violent in central America?

Why didn't Mexico just annex the rest of Central America to compensate for its losses in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo

But half the population of Costa Rica is from Nicaragua lol

Other than the drug war? The US having deported thousands of vicious mara gangsters? A history of CIA coups (Arbenz) and operations (Iran-Contras) fueling their civil wars? Economic exploitation as literal banana republics?

Because we've never fought a war of aggresion and are not savages seeking to dominate others

>Because we've never fought a war of aggresion and are not savages seeking to dominate others

Aren't you genetically programmed for that though?

>Because we've never fought a war of aggresion and are not savages seeking to dominate others
But that's wrong. Mexicans annexed the Philippines under the Viceroyalty of New Spain. Just saying.

Ok without blaming the gringo: Why so much violence in Central America?

we just granted them independance

can you imagine what wuld have happened if we went to war againts belize and somehow the UK got involved?

we would have lost another half lel

its just an awful territory, its only geograpical advantage was the panama canal, pretty hard for an economy to develop because of it

not that guy btw

That was as Spaniards, same as the rest of the conquests our people participated in. You do realize our country wasn't sovereign back then, those Mexicans owed their allegiance to the king of Spain.

No, that pic is a dumb meme, our genetic programing will only activate when the Zeta Reticuli return.

Naaaaah, man. You don't get to pick and choose the bad and good stuff from your past. I know some Mexicans like to boast about all the cool shit during the days of New Spain.

First response was meant as an answer to Economic inequality and social dislocation resulting from an exploitative neo-colonial model, tribalism, corruption, discrimination, illiteracy and ignorance, failed states, populist government policies, machismo culture, etc.

The usual non-meme complex yet painfully obvious reasons that aply to to nations with a medium HDI

Guatemalans and Honduras are friends, I guess?? But Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and specially Panama just seem like they're another world apart. They're just not relevant enough for us to really care about them.

well, let's leave it as Mexico as a sovereign state has never done those things then, we also had black slavery but abolished that as soon as the country became independent and controlled its own destiny. And honestly don't conquered peoples get a pass on the things they did under coercion? I do realize the irony of using the Nuremberg defense but if we are going there shouldn't we also then take our share in the acomplishments of the Spanish Empire as a whole? New Spain was as vital to the 17th century Spanish golden age as Castilla or Extremadura, Mexico wasn't just a viceroyalty but a Spanish kingdom proper en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_New_Spain and arguably we contributed as much, even culturally, (Góngora, Ruíz de Alarcón) as any of the ones in the peninsula.

Gangs. That's it. And by the way despite what people might believe Costa Rica, Panama and Nicaragua are safe countries.

The only violent ones are El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Do you know what this countries have in common?? Gangs.
