El Salvador's domestic topography is mainly mountainous, plateau, volcanic, known as the "country of volcanoes", the Santa Ana active volcano 2385 meters above sea level, the highest peak in the country; the northern part of the country is the Lompa River Valley, and the southern part is the narrow coastal plain.

The Salvadoran flag was launched in 1822, revoked in 1865, restored in 1912, 1972.

The Constitution of # was officially established as the national flag. The national flag is rectangular, with a ratio of length to width of 335 to 189. From top to bottom, the flag is connected by three parallel equal horizontal rectangles of blue, white and blue, and the central part of the white part is painted with the national emblem. Because El Salvador used to be a member of the former Central American Federation, its national flag is the same color as the original Central American Federal Flag. Blue symbolizes blue sky and sea, white symbolizes peace in 1998, El Salvador has a total population of 6.1 million (estimated), of which Indo-Europeans

It accounts for 89%, 10% for Indians and 1% for whites.

In the early 1990s, guerrilla warfare greatly damaged the country's national economy, reducing coffee production from 3.5 million bags in the early 1970s to 2.5 million bags in 1990-1991. The eastern part of the country was most affected by guerrilla warfare, and many farmers and workers were forced to leave the manor. The shortage of funds has led to a sharp drop in coffee production, from 1200 kg per hectare in the past to less than 900kg per hectare today.

In addition, the government imposed an additional 15% tariff on exported coffee in 1986, that is, an additional 15% in addition to the existing 30% tax. Taxes, together with unfavorable exchange rates, have greatly reduced the export of coffee and the quality of coffee.

The government finally realized the great role of coffee in the national economy, such as solving employment, earning foreign exchange and developing agricultural production, so it privatized some coffee export industries in 1990, hoping to increase the income rate of coffee in the export market.

Today, this coffee accounts for 40% of the country's exports. The best quality coffee is exported from January to March, and 35% of the extra hard beans are exported to El Salvador coffee from Germany, along with Mexico and Guatemala, as producers of Asa and Merdo, and are competing with other countries for the top one or two places in China and the United States. The highlands of origin are large coffee beans of all sizes, which are fragrant and mild in taste. Like Guatemala and Costa Rica, coffee in El Salvador is graded according to altitude. The higher the altitude, the better the coffee. It is divided into three grades according to elevation: SHB (strictlyhighgrown) = highlands, HEC (highgrowncentral) = mid-highlands, and CS (centralstandard) = lowlands. The best brand is Pipil, the Aztec-Mayan name for coffee, which has been recognized by the American Organic Certification Society (OrganicCertifiedlnstituteofAmerica) that El Salvador is one of the small and densely populated countries in Central America.

The output of coffee has dropped from 3.5 million bags in the early 1970s to 2.5 million bags in 1990-1991 in El Salvador. The coffee beans rich in the Kuskabapa region are the best, with slightly lighter weight, fragrant taste, pure and slightly sour taste.
