Guatemala
Guatemala is a Central American country and the heartland of the Maya people, who have lived here since ancient times. Here, they were able to calculate the length of the solar year within a few minutes based on the passage of the stars in the night sky. Impressive stuff!
Chocolate
One day in the ancient Guatemalan jungles, Silly Zonka Wonka found a nut that would change his life forever. He returned to his hometown of Zürich, Switzerland, and eventually created the first particles of chocolate. Life began to bloom ever since. Lindt, now under The Chocolatier's rule, now has offices in Zürich and the Guatemalan capital, Guatemala City, among other locations.
Maya peoples created the prototype of chocolate, though its chemistry is different compared to the forbidden treat we all know and desire.
Birbs
Guatemala's national bird, the resplendent quetzal, can be seen on the flag and is the namesake of the country's currency.
Embassies
Guatemala has an embassy in Ottawa that is 900 feet away from Slovenia's.
