2 B Costa Ricas History! Costa Rica was discovered September 18,1502. it was discovered by the and only Christopher. As he was on shore he was greeted by Carib Indians. These Carib Indians Wore gold rings on there nose and ears, causing the spaniard Gil Gonzalez Davila to name the country Costa Rica. Costa Rica was the least colonial influenced country, because it was tough place to settle and it was unpopular.

6 Cultural Issues The only issue that I found on the internet was the lack of minerals. Like gold, Silver copper. The way I would fix that is to get more resources like minerals and also try to make artificial minerals in my country that way we can have those minerals we need. Other wise Costa Rica is a very quiet place.
