    In the official message of the Bicentennial given by Tico President Carlos Alvarado, the protagonists were his predecessors. In a short intervention, Alvarado was enlisting other heads of state, while highlighting various inheritances. He stated that: “Juan Mora Fernández chose to be a teacher and not a military man, as happened in most Latin American countries”.

    Braulio Carrillo and José María Castro Madriz highlighted the heritage in the design of the institutionality and then spoke of the leadership of Juan Rafael Mora in the National Campaign of 1856 despite the fact that the conflict was originally from Nicaragua. Finally, he praised the Abolition of the Death Penalty dictated by Tomás Guardia.

    To these feats he added historical events such as the Abolition of the Army, the creation of national parks or the Central American pacification plan promoted by Oscar Arias. With all these actions, he said, Costa Rica declared peace to the world.”
