El Salvador is beset by one of the world's highest homicide rates and pervasive criminal gangs. The Maya civilization flourished in Guatemala and surrounding regions during the first millennium A. D. After almost three centuries as a Spanish colony, Guatemala won its independence in 1821. During the second half of the 20th century, it experienced a variety of military and civilian governments, as well as a 36-year guerrilla war. In 1996, the government signed a peace agreement formally ending the internal conflict.
