Why is El Salvador so densily populated?

Question

population density: 327/sq km

I haven't read any good answers yet.

The most densily populated countries are either south/east asian or european. The 'hot climate' thesis doesn't add up if you think about africa.
The Roman Catholic-thing...so are most surrounding countries, while they're not this densily populated. (besides, italy is also roman catholic, but it's population is growing slower than the USA's population)
The Nicuaragian prostitutes....came totally out of the blue.

Still waiting

only R.C.'s answer is remotely worth something

Answer 2

Binary options let users trade in currency pairs and stocks for various predetermined time-periods, minimal of which is 30 seconds. Executing trades is straightforward. The system uses user-friendly interfaces, which even an 8 years old kid, can operate without having to read any instructions. But winning trades is Not easy.
Binary trading is advertised as the only genuine system that lets users earn preposterous amounts of money in ridiculously short period of time. Advertisers try to implicate as if you can make $350 every 60 seconds; if it was true then binary trading would truly be an astonishing business.
However, does it make any sense? Can every trader make tons of money in binary trading? Who is actually paying all the money or the profit to traders?
The first challenge is finding a trustworthy binary broker; secondly, you need to find a binary trading strategy, which you can use to make profits consistently. Without an effective trading strategy, there is no way you can make money in this business.

It's probably the best way to learn how to win with binary option

Answer 3

Unlike most countries around it, Salvadorean did not have a reason to emmigrate until the late 70's and early 80's. During this time, a civil war was fought and many families were forced to leave this country. Other countries citezens have been in turmoil for quite a few years before that. At the same time, Salvadoreans have been known to be real close to the families, so leaving them was not an option.

Answer 4

Must be that the predominately Roman catholic faithful actually listen to the Vatican and don't practise birth control. As Spike Milligan said,"When will the pope allow birth control, When we are standing on each others shoulders"

Answer 5

A common misconception is that you will have to be a financial and business expert in order to successfully trade binary options. However, this is not true at all. Learn here https://tr.im/rI8rm

Perhaps it’s true when it comes to traditional stocks trading but definitely not true in the case of binaries. You don’t have to be an expert to predict the movement of certain assets.

Answer 6

I've done a research and most of countries that have hot weather are more populated than the ones with temperate climate. El Salvador is usually hotter because of it's location and its above sea level.

Answer 7

In my opinion, The majority of Salvadorans are in poverty and have many kids to be successful, but sometimes it goes to the extremes...

Answer 8

Cause they like to F*** like crazy rabbits

Answer 9

lots of pretty women...

Nicaragua

Trafficking Routes

Nicaragua is a country of origin and transit for trafficking in women and children. Women and children are trafficked to Guatemala; to other destinations in Central America such as Belize, Costa Rica, Honduras, and southern Mexico; and to the United States. Nicaragua is also a country of transit for women and children who are recruited in Honduras and South America and trafficked to countries of Central America for sexual exploitation. Trafficking occurs primarily over land routes.

Factors That Contribute to the Trafficking Infrastructure

Throughout the Central American region, “machismo” attitudes are prevalent, and women are often viewed as sexual objects. Interfamily violence, the breakdown of families, and poverty push young people to leave their homes and communities to search for better lives. The pull factor of the United States also causes many young people to migrate northward. To a lesser extent, pull factors entice young people toward more prosperous neighboring countries, for example, from Nicaragua south to Costa Rica. At border crossings, children are especially vulnerable to the whims of corrupt immigration officials or traffickers who help them cross the border.
Trafficking activity throughout Central America is aided by the free transit agreement between El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua, accompanied by weak border monitoring. In addition, truck drivers traveling along the Pan-American Highway contribute to the demand for prostitution.
Nicaragua is the poorest country in Central America and the second poorest country in the Western Hemisphere after Haiti. In Nicaragua alone, 1.6 million children live in poverty and 300,000 do not go to school. Forty percent of children suffer from some degree of malnutrition. Poverty, unemployment, and high dropout rates from school push minors into prostitution.

Forms of Trafficking

Studies have found that 1,000 to 1,200 women are in prostitution in the city of Managua alone, and almost half of them are younger than 18. According to one report, hundreds of teenage girls in prostitution line the Masaya Highway commercial corridor on Managua’s south side every night.
Sex tourism also exists in Nicaragua. Many women cater to sex tourists from the United States, Canada, Germany, and other countries in Europe. Child sex tourism is increasing, and young girls are exploited in massage parlors, of which Managua has at least 25.
Young women leave Nicaragua for neighboring countries or other places for promised jobs in hotels or factories or as domestics. One report recounts the story of a girl who was kidnapped at the age of 12 as she was walking to school in Managua in 1998. She had set out for school alone, as she did every morning. A taxi stopped her to ask directions. She remembers nothing more after that. She woke up in an unfamiliar place among other young girls, guarded by three women. Less than a week later, she was sold to some men, who sold her to others, who brought her to the United States to work in a brothel. For the next 6 years, until she was 18, she was “dragged from place to place and passed from hand to hand.” At the age of 18, she managed to go to the authorities, who deported her. She is now back in Nicaragua after “losing the best years of [her] life and [her] adolescence.”

Government Responses

The Criminal Code penalizes anyone who recruits other persons—with their consent or by threats, deception, or any similar scheme—to practice prostitution either inside or outside the country. The code also criminalizes trading in persons to bring them into the country to engage in prostitution. Punishment for the trafficking offense is imprisonment for 4 to 10 years. The penalty increases when the victim is younger than 14 years of age or is married to the perpetrator. The code prohibits inducing, promoting, or aiding the sexual corruption of a minor younger than 16 years of age. Punishment is imprisonment for 4 to 8 years. The term of imprisonment increases to 12 years if the offense was committed against a person younger than 12; was committed by force, intimidation, coercion, or abuse of authority; or if the offender was a relative, guardian, or custodian of a victim.
The code prohibits deceiving someone into engaging in sexual commerce, and it prohibits promoting or facilitating prostitution. Punishment for those offenses is imprisonment for 3 to 6 years. If the perpetrator is married to the victim, the penalty increases to 10 years of imprisonment. Sharing the earnings from the prostitution of another is similarly prohibited. The offense is punishable by imprisonment for 2 to 4 years.
Weaknesses in the justice system reportedly result in delays, dismissals, and lack of follow-up on reported trafficking cases. Victims, out of fear of reprisal and lack of confidence in the justice system, are often unwilling to participate in judicial proceedings against traffickers.
A former U.S. Marine was arrested in July 2003 in Granada, Nicaragua, for suspected involvement in child pornography. Police suspect there is a link to Costa Rica, as the man traveled frequently between Granada and Costa Rica.

Nongovernmental and International Organization Responses

The Asociación Mary Barreda provides occupational training and psychological assistance to victims of child sexual exploitation and child labor and also promotes family reunification through counseling.
TESIS, the Association for Workers for Education, Health and Social Integration, was founded in 1992. TESIS has assisted 350 street children through programs that try to reestablish contact with family members and provide alternatives to life on the streets. TESIS also educates the children on HIV/AIDS issues.
The nongovernmental organization Casa Alianza is dedicated to the rehabilitation and defense of street children in Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. The Latin American branch of Covenant House of New York, Casa Alianza has had its headquarters in San José, Costa Rica, since 1993. Originally founded in Guatemala in 1981, the organization moved into Honduras and Mexico in 1986 and into Nicaragua in 1998. Casa Alianza Nicaragua runs outreach programs and a crisis center, as well as family reintegration, psychological, and medical services. It also runs a Girls Crisis Center, a residential program for more than 25 homeless girls.
Multilateral Initiatives
The Eighth Meeting of the Regional Conference on Migration took place in Cancún, Mexico, 28–29 May 2003. Made up of high officials from Belize, Canada, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, and the United States, the conference focused on, among other migration issues, intensifying cooperation to combat smuggling and trafficking of persons.
