Guatemala: Indigenous people (that account for 40% of the population) in their majority use colorful traditional clothing impose by the spanish to differ them from town to town. Although spanish is its national language, there are more than 30 different languages spoken by the indigenous people, including Quiche, which is spoken by over a million people.
Panama: Since the opening of the Panama Canal it has become the largest central american melting pot country. It has a lot of hindu, chinese, aside from other races.
Peru: Like Guatemala, it has a large percentage of indigenous people belonging to the Incas.
Puerto Rico: One of the islands discovered by Christopher Colombus. An island that loves music... including merengue, salsa, reggaeton.
Spain: the mother country of all latin american countries. Ruled by a monarchy. Most of the traditions of latin countries come from Spain, specially those traditions related to religion (catholicism).
Colombia: Like all latin american countries most of the population is Catholic, so traditions are related to religious motives. Colombians are very fun people. They too have their particular music, including ballenato.
Equatorial Guinea: An ex-spanish colony in Africa. Although most of its inhabitants are africans, they still follow a lot of spanish traditions (related to catholicism) mixed with their african ancestry.
