CENTRAL AMERICA Central America is the small isthmus that separates the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea, and connects North America and South America. It is made up of these seven countries: • Belize • Guatemala • El Salvador • Honduras • Nicaragua • Panama • Costa Rica Central America is considered a Mesoamerican civilization that was largely inhabited by people indigenous to the area until Spanish intervention in the 1500’s. The most notable of the native people of Central America are the Mayans and Aztecs, who created an empire in this region of the Americas. © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved.
