		French Guiana consists of three main geographical regions: a coastal strip where the majority of the people live, then dense, near-inaccessible rainforest, which gradually rises to the modest peaks of the Tumac-Humac mountains along the Brazilian frontier.
		French Guiana's population of 195,506 (July 2005 est.), most of whom live along the coast, is very ethnically diverse.

		JOSEPH ISLAND, French Guiana -- Thick tropical vines wrap around rusty jail bars, and trees grow inside cells in the 19th-century prison on this far-flung island off South America -- a relic of French Guiana's dark past as a penal colony where thousands of prisoners died of disease.
		Their history haunts the French Guianese, who are eager for the world to discover their vast rain forests and eclectic culture of European lifestyles fused with the many traditions brought by Caribbean, Asian and South American immigrants.
		The French government spends $2.2 million a year to shed that image, producing brochures and buying television commercials that show off jungles filled with jaguars and monkeys, beaches where huge tortoises waddle out of the surf, and fishermen whisking piranhas out of rivers.

		In the last 15 years the "gold rush" in the Guianas — Guyana, Suriname and French Guiana — has led tens of thousands to work in small-scale gold mining when Brazilian "garimpeiros," as the informal gold miners are called, headed north, hoping to strike gold.
		In the Guianas, approximately 40,000 kilos (1.29 million ounces) of gold is mined annually, meaning that approximately the same amount of mercury is released into the environment, polluting ecosystems, air, soil, sediment, water, animals, food chains and ultimately humans.
		In many villages along the rivers in the Guianas, fish is an important food and source of protein.
