In 1906, a border dispute arose between Honduras and Guatemala that escalated into a diplomatic crisis and led to the deployment of military forces along the border.
In 1906, Guatemala accused Honduras of allowing armed groups to cross the border and attack Guatemalan villages. Honduras denied these accusations and accused Guatemala of violating its sovereignty by supporting rebels in the border region. The situation quickly escalated, with both sides deploying military forces along the border and tensions rising.
Eventually, the crisis was resolved through diplomatic negotiations, when both sides agreed to sign a protocol establishing a commission to demarcate the border between the two countries. The commission's work would continue over the next few years, with periodic outbreaks of violence and tension along the border.
Overall, while there was no full-scale war between Honduras and Guatemala in 1906, the border dispute and resulting crisis highlighted the complex and controversial relations between Central American countries during this period.
