                  Background:
                  The island was uninhabited when first settled by the British
                  in 1627. Its economy remained heavily dependent on sugar, rum,
                  and molasses production through most of the 20th century. In
                  the 1990s, tourism and manufacturing surpassed the sugar
                  industry in economic importance. |
