Who We are
History of Antigua & Barbuda
Antigua, Barbuda and Redonda form the independent nation of Antigua & Barbuda, within the commonwealth of Nations. The are part of the Leeward Islands in the West Indies. When Christopher Columbus “Found” the Island nation in the eastern Carribean Sea in 1493, it was inhabited by Amerindian tribes. “Santa Maria de la Antigua”, he named the island.
Settlements y the Spanish and French were succeeded by the English who formed a colony in 1447. Tobacco was initially farmed but sugar proved to be more profitable in the late 17th century. They established slavery to run the sugar plantations on Antigua.
Antigua & Barbuda gained independence in 1981, although it is still British in many of its traditions.
