constitutional monarchy which recognizes Queen Elizabeth II as
Sovereign. The name is shared by the Belize River, Belize's longest
river, and Belize City, the former capital and largest city.
Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America and also
the smallest non-island nation, in terms of population, in the Americas
(approximately 290,000).
