I hear what went wrong in Iraq was all the officials under Saddam who knew how to manage Iraq and it’s various factions were kicked out because naturally they worked for the previous regime.
It certainly beats firing the whole kit and kaboodle while they are still armed to the teeth. When their pay depends on learning new rules, they can probably swing it.
All joking aside, from my buddy, Wiki (okay, nearly all joking aside):
The amended constitution contains 312 articles. Power emanates from the people and is exercised by the three branches of government, each of which is “limited and separate”, but all of which, in theory, work together in “harmonious collaboration.” The national territory is defined as “the land area, the territorial sea, the submarine continental shelf, the subsoil, and air space between Costa Rica and Colombia.” Any ceding, leasing, or other alienation of this territory to any other state is expressly forbidden. Spanish is the country’s national language.
Citizenship may be acquired by birth or naturalization.
Articles 17–50 guarantee a broad range of individual rights, including property rights, but
Article 51 gives the president power to suspend many of these by declaring a “state of emergency”.
Articles 52–124 establish the role of the state in protecting the family, regulating labor conditions, promoting education and culture, providing assistance for health and other areas of social security, promoting agriculture, and protecting the environment.
Article 308 provides for amending the constitution, either through approval of amendments without modification by an absolute majority of two successive elected assemblies or approval with modifications by two assemblies and subsequent ratification of the modified text by a national referendum.

Panama is a fairly cheap place for US retirees with pensions to move to.
