Best Answer

Belize is a former British colony, it is an English speaking nation and part of the Commonwealth of Nations under Queen Elizabeth II.

It does not have a latin based language such as French, Spanish or Portuguese. It's culture, legal system and government are more influenced by the British system rather than the 'latin' systems of Spain or Portugal. So although it shares borders with Latin American countries, Belieze is not actually a part of Latin America.
