* Probably the most famous saga involving Costa Rica is ''Literature/JurassicPark'', even when the book has some misconceptions (like assuring Costa Rica has an army) and the first movie shows the capital San José as a beach with palms trees (while it is a city in the middle of a valley), most Costa Ricans have a certain love toward the franchise.

The political position of these parties about different topics may vary strongly from their counterparts in other countries. For example, PUSC is a Social Christian party but is in favor of recognizing same-sex couples, but is not in favor of same-sex marriage while Libertarian Movement had establish that LGBT-topics are not their priority contrary to most liberal parties. The only main party that endorses same-sex marriage is Broad Front, but PLN, PAC and PUSC all support same-sex couples' legal recognition trough other legal figure.

One last thing; after the civil war, the government abolished the military. Not only was it one the first countries to do so, but was for long time the only country in Latin America without military (no doubt that helped dodge the military rule of almost all the continent) until Panama and Haiti abolished their own armies. But what about the novel ''Literature/JurassicPark'', where the dinosaurs are destroyed by the Costa Rican Air Force? Well, that was just Creator/MichaelCrichton not doing enough research. Though that said, the country does maintain a public security force and even its own special forces division purely for self-defense and police work.
