Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. I land in Belize's Philip S. W. Goldson Airport, situated in the old capital of the country. Belize's capital became Belmopan in 1970, but what was it before Hurricane Hattie?

Answer: Belize City

Belize City was the capital of Belize before Hurricane Hattie ravaged the city. Most of the buildings in Belize City were wooden, and this prompted a relocation of the capital.

2. First, I go to the Guanacaste National Park. There, I realise much of Belize's land is, wait, I forgot! What is Belize's terrain?

Answer: Flat and swampy

Belize is flat and swampy, with low mountains in the south. The national park I just virtually visited is named after a Guanacaste tree that was not chopped down due to its trunk being divided into three, reducing its value in timber.

3. Belize is not a big country at all, as shown in my virtual travel brochure. But how big is it?

Answer: 22,966km� (8,867mi�)

Belize is the second smallest country in Central America, after El Salvador. It is about 290km long and 110km wide.

4. I wander around the Belize City streets, and hear multiple conversations. What language would most of these conversations be in?

Answer: English

English is the official language of Belize and was brought over by the British (who else?). Mayan languages were spoken before colonisation. It is also the only country in Central America to not have Spanish as its official language.

5. I now feel hungry, so I go to grab a bite of the national dish. But wait, what is the national dish?

Answer: Rice and beans with stewed chicken

Belizean rice and beans with chicken is the national dish of Belize. Sometimes, the rice and beans are cooked in coconut milk to make it sweeter.

6. After eating that delectable dish, I reach in my pocket for some change. I find four currencies in my pocket! Which one do I use in Belize?

Answer: Belize Dollar

The Belize dollar is the currency of Belize. Its symbol is $, or BZ$ to differentiate it from other dollars.

7. Ding, dong, ding dong. The church bells ring. Oh, much of Belize's population must be Christian. What is the predominant branch though?

Answer: Roman Catholic

40.1% of Belizeans are Roman Catholic. But due to heavy British influence, Belize's Protestant population is larger than that of any other Central American country.

8. To burn some energy, I decide to go hike the highest point in Belize. I hop on a taxi, and try to tell the driver where to go but, oops! I forgot what it is! Can you tell me?

Answer: Doyle's Delight

Doyle's Delight is the highest point in Belize at a whopping 1,124m (3,688ft). It is on the Maya Divide. The capital, Belmopan, also has a road named Doyle's Delight Street.

9. As I walk past Belize's National Assembly, I see the unique flag flapping in the air. Apparently it is the only flag to have, wait I don't remember, again! What is unique about Belize's flag?

Answer: People on it

The people on Belize's flag represent harmony and the log wood workers. It represents harmony by showing two men, one of African descent, and one of Mestizo descent.

10. After a wonderful trip, I relax on my flight. This national airline is very nice. But what airline am I on? Hint, I am on a flight to San Pedro Sula.
