Comment on this Dominica Forum ... Transnational Issue Introduction Dominica Background: Dominica was the last of the Caribbean islands to be colonized by Europeans, due chiefly to the fierce resistance of the native Caribs. France ceded possession to Great Britain in 1763, which made the island a colony in 1805. In 1980, two years after independence, Dominica's fortunes improved when a corrupt and tyrannical administration was replaced by that of Mary Eugenia CHARLES, the first female prime minister in the Caribbean, who remained in office for 15 years. Some 3,000 Carib Indians still living on Dominica are the only pre-Columbian population remaining in the eastern Caribbean. Geography Dominica Location: Caribbean, island between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, about one-half of the way from Puerto Rico to Trinidad and Tobago

    Source: The Library of Congress Country Studies
      Dominica is the most mountainous island in the Caribbean. The land rises in places straight from the sea, towering to high peaks. This rugged landscape is softened somewhat by the luxuriant forests that coat the hills and give the island its distinctive verdant beauty.
      After nearly 3,000 years of human habitation, Dominica, known to many as "the Nature Island of the Caribbean," is one of the few places where untouched primary tropical forests can still be found. More than in most islands, this rugged terrain has guided the course of Dominica's history. The steep mountains and deep valleys provided the early Carib Indians with a natural fortress against European colonizers, making Dominica one of the last islands to be fully colonized. These same features later provided a safe haven for escaped slaves. Since then, the struggle between man and mountain has significantly affected the direction and pace of Dominica's development by determining the location and cost of roads, farms, and buildings.
      The island's first settlers were the Arawaks, an Indian people from the Orinoco region of South America, who arrived in Dominica and the neighboring islands of Martinique and Guadaloupe about 1,000 years B.C. (see The Pre-European Population, ch. 1). These first known settlers lived peacefully until they were almost completely decimated by the more aggressive Carib Indians, who arrived in Dominica in 900 A.D.. In the late 1980s, there were no known living descendants of the Arawaks in Dominica, but the Carib population numbered about 1,500.

    INTRODUCTION Dominica was once a British protectorate and had assumed the status of a British Associate State in 1967. The county gained full independence on November 3 1978. Location of Dominica Dominica lies in the Lesser Antilles in Eastern Caribbean and is approximately halfway between the islands of Guadeloupe on the north and Martinique on the south. Physical Map of Dominica The country of Dominica is mountainous in nature with several peaks rising even above 4,000 ft and all these mountains are covered with rich forests. The country's high annual rainfall contributes to the rich and fertile forests. Being volcanic in nature, the country has many volcanoes. Small, un-navigable rivers and lakes also dot the island. One of the most famous lakes is the Boiling Lake, located in the south, from which sulfurous gases frequently arise. Climate of Dominica The island has a tropical climate with an average annual temperature of about 27°C. The annual rainfall is considerable, ranging from about 1,780 mm on the coast to more than three times that figure in the mountains.
