Central America Map

Despite common misconception, Central America is not a continent. It is a region of the North American continent, specifically the southernmost portion that borders South America. It is an isthmus, which is a narrow strip of land that bridges or connects two large land masses.

There are seven countries in Central America, specifically Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. The primary language of these countries is Spanish, but many other indigenous languages are spoken.

The region has a total land area of 523,780 square km, and a total population of 47,739,000. This gives it a fairly high population density of 77 people per square km.
