Hello, and welcome to the Guatemala Learning Express! On this website, you will learn many different facts about the country

Now, for beginners, let's introduce Guatemala. Guatemala is a country, located in Latin America. It is surrounded
by the countries of Mexico on the Northwest, Belize on the Northeast, Honduras on the East, and El Salvador on the Southeast.
The remaining surrounding areas are water. Guatemala's flag looks like this:
As you can see on the flag, there is one white stripe in the middle of two sky blue stripes. This symbolizes
the fact that Guatemala is located between two bodies of water: The Pacific Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. But, while the
white depicts the country's location, it also syblolizes peace and purity. The symbol on the middle of the flag is also the
country's Coat Of Arms, as you'll read more about later.
