Nicaragua, with an area of
130,688 square kilometers (49,759 square miles), neighbors with
Honduras to the north, Costa Rica to the south, the Caribbean Sea
to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Its capital
city, Managua, with close to a million people, is also the largest
city.
The ramifications of the Central
American Mountain Range, which cross the country, causes a
considerable climatic diversity. The climate is hot and dry
along the Pacific Coast, mild in the Central Mountains and humid
in the Caribbean region.
