The Footprint-history Country


Nicaragua, a country with a history starting with just a footprint. Footprints that are 10,000 years old belonging to the people of the Acahualinca, Nicaragua's native inhabitants, were preserved under volcanic ash for years .

A Caribbean country with some stunning landscapes, colorful nature and an incredible treasureful culture. With a vague mysterious history, in central America with Costa Rica and Honduras as neighbours, combining between native and modern cultures, shows nature's true beauty combined with human decorations.
Back to the footprints, what happened? were there people living there? or was it just someone passing by? Just Kidding... May be they died in some volcanic erection, who knows!

The known dated Nicaraguan history started in the 10th century when the natives in Mexico migrated to that beautiful area on earth, but the "real" history started with Christopher Columbus' discovery to it in 1502। Then, it all started and i don't need to tell how the Europeans started building colonies and how the Spanish became the main language. I don't need to tell how the native Acahualincas were treated or what happened to their villages.

There are a lot of stuff to be told about the nature of that amazing country. The rainforest with its wild life, the different kinds of birds and animals, the mountains and still-steaming volcanoes, the islands.. Nicaragua is also known for having the only fresh-water sharks।

The capital of Nicaragua is Managua which is relatively crowded and regularly hit by earthquakes. However, there is a lot to do around the cities, besides site seeing. The christian and Spanish cultures have a great impact on a lot of places in the cities represented in Churches, Cathedrals and Spanish-style buildings.
