Antigua & Barbuda
Antigua and Barbuda is an independent Commonwealth
state in the Eastern Caribbean. Antigua was first discovered by
Christopher Columbus in 1493 and later became a British settlement.
Under Lord Nelson, it became Britain’s main
naval base from which it patrolled the West Indies.
Antigua and its flatland topography were well suited to produce its early crops of tobacco, cotton and ginger. The main industry, however, developed into sugar cane farming which
lasted for over 200 years. Today Antigua’s key industry is
tourism and related service industries. The next largest
employer is the financial services industry.
