Surinam Discovered brings us a huge variety in sights and colors, found in few other countries. This is remarkable as Surinam, compared to most other Latin American countries, is quite modest in size, not to mention population: 500,000 inhabitants. The question therefore arises: to what does Surinam owe this overwhelming wealth and diversity? Largely, this is thanks to the physical properties of the country; more than 80% of it is unspoiled nature, specifically tropical rainforest. The wealth and pureness of the Surinam inland – much of which has been declared a nature reserve – is, compared to other tropical countries, spectacular. |

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The photos you find in SD show a variety in image and color which few other countries can offer. This is remarkable, for they are, after all, of a country that, in comparison with most South American countries, is very modest in size. And equally modest in the population of around 500,000 inhabitants. The question is: to what does Suriname owe its remarkably rich and varied appearance. To an important degree, the answer lies in the physical condition of the country. No less than 80 percent of the surface is made up of unspoilt nature in the form of tropical rainforest. The wealth and unimpaired seclusion of the Suriname interior, even on comparison with other tropical countries, spectacular. Naturally, the inhabitants and the culture determine the picture of a country and in this aspect too, Suriname has a remarkable wealth. In our present-day world, multicultural societies are a relatively new phenomenon. Suriname, however, formed a multicultural society before the term had been invented.
