    Belize is one pof the more fascinating places in Central America. While it's bordered by Mexico and Guatemala, and shares a geopolitical sphere with Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, it's not a dominant-Spanish speaking country. In fact, unlike all the other countries, Belize was actually Britain's lone Central American colony for a long time. In this episode, we explore the history and geography of this unique, and gorgeous, Central American country.

    Trains are an incredibly important piece of transportation technology. But while the United States is not often considered to be a train country overall, it actually kind of is! It's just not one for passengers. Still, the U.S. has more active track than any other single country and hauls much of our goods from city to city. Join us as we tackle the global geography of trains including who carries the most passengers, what the longest rail line is, and what the United States', Canada's and Mexico's rail infrastructure looks like.
