Costa Rica Collapse

Since the earth has been occurred, most countries collapsed because these countries did not realize what was there problems were such as Angkor wat, Yugoslavia and Lebanon. In the years of 2011 there was a book called “collapse” ,which was written by Jared diamond, professor of geography at the university of california, it indicates regarding which country is going to collapse or not by dividing into 5 sections which are human impacts on the environment, climate change, relations with neighboring friendly societies, relations with hostile societies, and the political, economic, social and cultural factors(penguin,2015). Costa Rica is one of the countries that is on the fence because there relation in their own country is very horrify, and

It is because costa is one of the countries that has the highest rate of crimes in central america. As an article from insight crime (2016), people were murdered approximately 566 people in the year 2015, and it was calculated from these number of the death that 11.5 people were killed per 100,000. These number will continue to increase gradually. It means the majority of people need to face with these circumstances for a long time, and this problem can lead to the decline of the GDP in Costa Rica. To illustrate, 3 percent of gdp in Costa Rica comes from crime, which means it almost as equal as the rate of the income that produced by 20 percent the poor in Costa Rica(Yagoub,2015). Moreover, violence in Costa Rica affect People who travel to Costa rica, and dwellers. It is because violence occur everywhere in Costa Rica such as School, home and all communities in Costa Rica. One example is that robberies in Costa rica were stolen cash, cameras, U.S. passports and bags from american tourists(embassy of united states, n. d.). This situation can lead to settlement in other places that has not have any criminal threats or lower than costa rica, and Slow down the economic growth because government need to address this problem to drive improve their society, after that government can drive their economy. This problem can also be the part of declining relation with friendly neighbors because if the country had a high rate of crime other country will not do business with costa rica
