With a land area of more than 43.000 square miles, Honduras is the second largest of the Central American countries. Volcanic peaks rising more than 8,000 feet fill more than three-fourths of the area. Mayans once lived here where today most are still Indians with small numbers of Spanish and Negro descendants. One colorful point about Honduras is that a picturesque American freebooter William Walker tried to liberate the country in 1860. Today, Tegucigalpa is its mountain capital, but it has little in the way of tourist attractions. Exports are bananas, coffee, timber. and tobacco. af$ H h I'llm: 28
