THECASTEWAR
...the history of the second half of the
nineteenth century in British Honduras
was shrouded in almost complete secrecy.
The Caste War was never, never discussed.

the ladino and Maya refugees from the
Caste War settled the Corozal and
Orange Walk Districts, and laid
the foundation for what represents today
the population majority of Belize.
