1. Nombres y r\u00edos:<\/strong>\u00a0El nombre de Guyana procede de la palabra india \"Guiana\", que significa \"tierra de muchos r\u00edos\". Los cuatro r\u00edos m\u00e1s largos de Guyana son el Essequibo, el Courantyne, el Berbice y el Demerara (el Essequibo es el m\u00e1s largo).<\/p>\n

2. Holand\u00e9s:<\/strong>\u00a0En la d\u00e9cada de 1600, Guyana se convirti\u00f3 en colonia holandesa, donde los holandeses construyeron sistemas di\u00e9sel para gestionar los r\u00edos y establecer la agricultura<\/p>\n

3. Brit\u00e1nico:<\/strong>\u00a0En 1815, los brit\u00e1nicos tomaron el poder en Guyana, por lo que el pa\u00eds pas\u00f3 a llamarse Guayana Brit\u00e1nica. Guyana no se independiz\u00f3 de los brit\u00e1nicos hasta 1966.<\/p>\n

4. Composici\u00f3n de la poblaci\u00f3n:<\/strong>\u00a0La poblaci\u00f3n de Guyana est\u00e1 compuesta principalmente por indios (indostan\u00edes\/indostan\u00edes) y africanos (43,5% y 30,2% respectivamente), todos ellos descendientes de los esclavos tra\u00eddos al pa\u00eds por holandeses y brit\u00e1nicos en el pasado. Tambi\u00e9n hay mestizos (16,7%) e ind\u00edgenas (9,1%).<\/p>\n

5. La zona costera:<\/strong>\u00a0Alrededor de 90% de la poblaci\u00f3n de Guyana vive en una estrecha parte de la zona costera del pa\u00eds, que constituye alrededor de 10% de la superficie total del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n

Dato: En Guyana, el cr\u00edquet es el deporte m\u00e1s popular debido a la numerosa poblaci\u00f3n india del pa\u00eds y a su historia como colonia brit\u00e1nica.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. Lema:<\/strong>\u00a0El lema nacional de Guyana es: \"One People, One Nation, One Destiny\", que significa \"Un pueblo, una naci\u00f3n, un destino\".<\/p>\n

7. Selva tropical:<\/strong>\u00a0Alrededor de 70% de la superficie de Guyana est\u00e1 cubierta por selva tropical.<\/p>\n

8. Bandera:<\/strong>\u00a0La bandera de Guyana tambi\u00e9n se llama \"The Golden Arrow Head\", que significa \"La punta de lanza dorada\". La bandera se utiliza desde 1966, cuando Guyana se independiz\u00f3 de Gran Breta\u00f1a.<\/p>\n

9. Jim Jones:<\/strong>\u00a0El 18 de noviembre de 1978, el l\u00edder de la secta religiosa estadounidense Jim Jones se suicid\u00f3 en masa junto con sus 909 seguidores en Jonestown, Guyana. Esta tragedia hizo mundialmente famoso al pa\u00eds<\/p>\n

10. Deporte:<\/strong>\u00a0El deporte m\u00e1s importante en Guyana es el cr\u00edquet, y en las competiciones internacionales el pa\u00eds forma parte de la \"West Indies cricket team\", que sol\u00eda ser el equipo m\u00e1s fuerte del mundo.<\/p>\n
