| Central American Court of Justice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (630 words) |
 | The Central American Court of Justice (1907–1918, 1962 to date) is an international court established by five Central American states. |
 | The earliest attempt was the Federal Republic of Central America, and the most recent such effort had taken place 11 years earlier, with the founding of the Republic of Central America. |
 | Idle for nearly 30 years thereafter, the court changed shape in 1991 when Article 12 of the Protocol of Tegucigalpa created the Central American Integration System (Sistema de Integración Centroamericana, or SICA), and the union was joined by Panama (as a member state), and Belize (as an observer). |
