Honduras officially the Republic of Honduras is a republic in Central America. It encompasses 112’090 km² and close to 9 Mio. inhabitants. The capital is Tegucigalpa. It has at times been referred to as Spanish Honduras to differentiate it from British Honduras, which became modern-day Belize.[5] Honduras is bordered to the west by Guatemala, to the southwest by El Salvador, to the southeast by Nicaragua, to the south by the Pacific Ocean at the Gulf of Fonseca, and to the north by the Gulf of Honduras, a large inlet of the Caribbean Sea.
