Costa Rica has no army and fares very well without it in stark contrast to the nations around them: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/3929177.stm Just educate yourself.

Perhaps the education can go both ways:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_Costa_Rica

So, yep, they've still got a military, it's just also their police force (and national guard), which is pretty smart, in my opinion.

Looking up Wikipedia is the opposite of education. Also this entry just confirms what I said. Costa Rica has only security forces with very basic fire arms.
