Micheletti is not a legitimate president, so there should be a new section called "Coup Leader - Roberto Micheletti", leaving the legitimate president Jose Manuel Zelaya Rosales as president, with a subtext of ousted by coup. Elhombredelmonte (talk) 23:56, 23 January 2010 (UTC) Elhombredelmonte

[edit] crime?

How come there's nothing about crime or the homicide rate? I ended up in this article because Honduras is listed as being the country with the highest homicide rate, but there is nothing in the article about this.

- I agree totally. Somebody who knows something about Honduras needs to edit this page and talk about the crime rate and whatnot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.180.90.191 (talk) 23:58, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] geographical location

Honduras is in Central America, not in north america

Central America is not a continent. North America is. Honduras is part of the continent of North America --Xaliqen (talk) 17:20, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

The army in Honduras never was legally when they arrested to Jose M. Zelaya. Wasn't even a legal consult about the referendum. Nothing was a excuse to do that —Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.21.70.253 (talk) 22:21, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Depending on the continent count method used, Honduras may be in America (As a whole) or in South America (When looking at North and South America as separate continents).
I know continents and how they're defined can be a bit arbitrary (Europe and Asia being separate is a good example), but every modern reference I've seen includes Central America as part of North America. Here's Wikipedia's list of countries in North America. --Xaliqen (talk) 16:18, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

D.E.A. Squads Extend Reach of Drug War

by Charlie Savage published November 6, 2011, excerpt ...

Late on a moonless night last March, a plane smuggling nearly half a ton of cocaine touched down at a remote airstrip in Honduras. A heavily armed ground crew was waiting for it — as were Honduran security forces. After a 20-minute firefight, a Honduran officer was wounded and two drug traffickers lay dead.

See Mexican Drug War, for example. 99.181.141.143 (talk) 00:02, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps given Honduras is now the most violent country in the world something in Crime in Honduras might be better; and this could indeed be skillfully included, IMO, as the trafficking in an integral part of crime in Honduras. Thanks, ♫ SqueakBox talk contribs 01:32, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] homicide

Worth mentioning? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate (Honduras is the #1) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.95.117.68 (talk) 14:32, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

[edit] SECRET CASTLE

In Honduras there is a secret, not very secret but it's not talked about. Where a kingdom surrounds it, and the people living in there are under monarchy rule. The Queen, called Reina Herminia is now passing her crown on to her twin granddaughters whose name cannot be revealed at this moment because there are not in the kingdom. This Kingdom is under the rule of a rich family who doesn't use this kingdom's money for there personal benefits but they use their riches to help the people living in the kingdom. It is told by reporters who have been in the kingdom that the twin princesses, who visit every now and then have taken it upon them self to take care of the orphans. "For Christmas," said an orphan, "They refurbished our rooms and gave us new beds. They are the nicest princesses ever and I know that when they take the crowns shall rule the kingdom with pride and honor" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.131.186.62 (talk) 07:51, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
