Anguilla is a British overseas territory located in the Caribbean Sea near Saint Kitts and Nevis and east of Puerto Rico. The population is about 16,000 people. The chief of state is the Queen of the United Kingdom who is represented by a governour general, and the head of government is a chief minister.
English settlers arrived in Anguilla about 1650. In colonial days, Anguilla was administered by Great Britain. In 1824, the island was administratively incorporated with Saint Kitts and Nevis. In 1967 and again in 1969, revolts occurred with the goal of independence from Saint Kitts and Nevis. In 1980, Anguilla achieved its goal and gained independence becoming a British overseas territory.
Tourism and offshore banking are major contributors to the economy. Travellers can enjoy the ocean and beaches, diving and snorkelling, and boating.
