According to the "Popol Vuh" ( the mayan bible) we are descendent of the four hijos del maiz: Balam kitze, balam Acab, Tepeu y Cocomatz.
That's why we are into corn, our sacred food which nowadays feeds millions around the globe. It is harvested in Africa, the middle east and other places.
Guatemalan Tamales are pretty much the same as Salvadorian Tamales, except that ours are bigger, and we don't put potatoes in ours. They're usually made with a piece of chicken, pork, or beef in them. We don't put sour cream on the ones that are wrapped in a banana leaf, maybe on the ones that are wrapped in a corn leaf, but it all depends on your taste. Over all no mater where the tamal is from it's always good. The only ones that I don't like at all are the sweet ones with the raisons in them ewww!
I guess in Nicaragua the equivalent of your tamales would be our nacatamales, which by the way, is also a tradition to have for Xmas. I think they're a little bigger than your tamales (I've never had salvadoran or guatemalan tamales), and they have rice, potatoes, tomatoes and pork or chicken). Ask any nicaraguan, they're delicious, especially for breakfast. We also have something that I haven't seen since I've been here, called Yoltamal, which is made of baby corn and it has a sweet taste. Very yummy too.
When the revolution took place, and there was an American blockade of their products, we used corn a lot as staples, and Luis Enrique Mejia wrote a song about corn. It basically said that we're "Hijos del maiz", which was the main staples amongst indigenous people in our countries. These are the lyrics:
SOMOS HIJOS DEL MAIZ (Luis Enrique Mejía Godoy) 1980
Si nos quitan el pan nos veremos en la obligación de sobrevivir como lo hicieron nuestros abuelos con el maiz fermentado en la sangre de los héroes
Con el maiz sembrado desde siempre desde antes que ensangretaran nuestra tierra los cuervos, los piratas, la cruz la espada y el capital
Somos hijos del maiz constructores de surcos y de sueños y aunque somos un pais pequeño ya contamos con más de mil inviernos un millón de manos floreciendo en la tarea interminable de sembrar de abril a mayo, labrando, sembrando tapizcando, desgranando almacenando para la guerra y la paz!
Chicha de maiz, chicha pujagua chicha raizuda, pelo de maiz EL ATOOOOOL Chingue de maiz, nacatamal atolillo PERRERREQUEEEEE!
Tamalpizque, cosa de horno pinolillo, pinol, posol, Elote, chilote, tortilla empanada
Es decir el macizo e irreversible alimento del pueblo es decir el maciso e irreversible alimento del pueblo...
Chicha de maiz...
Tamalpizque, cosa de horno pinolillo, pinol, posol elote, chilote, guirila, empanada
Es decir el macizo e irreversible alimento del pueblo
De esta manera seremos más nuevos de esta manera seremos más nuevos de esta manera seremos más nuevos de esta manera seremos maiiiiizzz Nuevo!!

COnfu, a tamal is basically corn dough mixed some times with oil or pork fat (in the old days), and several spices, a piece of chicken, potato, olive and sometimes raisins( for sweet tamales) are inbedded into this dough; which is wrapped around with piece of a banana tree leaf.
There are several kinds of tamales, the most commonly sold in Toronto are chicken tamales, elote ( grounded corn), and sometimes pisket ( I have no idea what pisket means ) but they have re fried beans inside and look greenish in color with a particular taste from the cooking process. BAckhome there are several more kinds of tamales including sweet ones that kind of suck cause they taste more like a dessert.
If you ever have a chance to eat any kind of tamal, don't forget to remove the covering, leaves usually don't taste good. I've seen people eating them without removing the leaf, jajaja.

No all of it is not just America. There is North America which is one, and there Is South America which is the other. There are seven Continents in total, and north and south america are considered seperate. Yes it's all america, but it is divided into North and South America. Central America is part of North America. Get it.

Yup this is true. I heard that we are not officially considered a continent, because we are to small to be one. About Belize it was a part of a British Colony, which they called British Honduras, but this was after they took it away from Guatemala. Belize was originally a part of Guatemala, later it went to the British, and then it became indipendent.

No look it up then, because from what I have read in History books these three countries have or had some sort of alliance. Belize isn't considered part of Central America Officially. Panama is part of Central america, but it wasn't always. I think that it officially became part of Central America not to long ago, but this is a fact.
@ confu this is a Tamal
This is the kind that is wrapped in a Banana Leaf, but there are others that are wrapped in a Corn leaf.
