Hi, I'm interested in knowing more about Costa Rica, could you help me with that? 
 I'd be happy to help! Costa Rica is in Central America and is bordered by Nicaragua on the north, Panama on the southeast, the Pacific Ocean on the west, and on the east is the Carribbean Sea. 
 Sounds like a wonderful place. Do you know anything about their government and politics? 
 Yes, Costa Rica has a long-term disagreement with Nicaragua over the San Juan River, which is what defines the border between them and over Costa Rica's rights of navigation on the river. 
 Rivers can be property? That's sad. What else could you tell me between the relationship between Nicaragua and Costa Rica? 
 Well, in 1858, a treaty extended navigation rights to Costa Rica, but Nicaragua denied passenger travel and fishing was part of the deal. The court ruled that Costa Ricans on the river did not have to have Nicaraguan tourist cards or visas,. which Nicaragua argued, but in a nod to the Nicaraguans, it was ruled that Costa Rican boats and passengers must stop at the first and last Nicaraguan port along their route. 
 Wow, that is all quite interesting. Speaking of the river, what could you tell me about Costa Rica's geography? 
 Since Costa Rica is located between 8 and 12 degrees north of the Equator the climate is tropical all year round. 
 Sounds amazing. Any other information you have on this topic? 
 The Central American squirrel monkey, which is found only on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica and a small part of Panama, was considered endangered until 2008 when its status was upgraded to vulnerable. 
 That's good to hear. Well thank you for all the good information! Have a great day! 
 You're welcome and you too!
