French Guyana
French Guyana was, until 1946, the place chosen by France to send all its convicts.

Today it attracts mostly Engineers who go to work on the European Space Program.
More than just a technological center, the country is fantastic for its historic sites (the prisons) and its natural wonders (The Rain Forest).
Fishing and forestry are the prime industries and timber, shrimp and rum made from local sugar cane are the chief exports. Rice, corn, manioc, and bananas are grown for subsistence.
There are gold (discovered in 1855) and bauxite deposits; exploitation, however, has been hindered by inadequate transportation and scarcity of labour.
The Plan Vert (Green Plan), adopted in the late 1970s to increase production in agriculture and forestry, met with only partial success.
French Guiana has two districts (arrondissements): Cayenne, the coastal region, where more than 90% of the population is concentrated; and the larger interior district of Saint Laurent-du-Maroni.
The population is predominantly Roman Catholic. This French Territory is represented in the French National Assembly and Senate. It is governed by a Prefect (Governor) and an Elected Council.

The population is largely of mixed race African and European descents, but there are also minorities of White, Indians tribes (descents of Amazonians), Chinese and Asian Indians.
French is the official language, but other languages and foreign dialects are spoken as well.
