Formerly known as Dutch Guiana, Suriname is the smallest country in South America and has a population of approximately 600,000 people. Suriname is a diverse country with a mixture of cultures including indigenous people, Creole, Maroons (descendants of African slaves), Hindustani (from the Indian subcontinent), and Javanese. The official language of Suriname is Dutch, while Sranan Tongo, an English-based creole language, is widely spoken. The economy of Suriname is heavily dependent on exports of bauxite, gold, and oil.
