The Ancient history of Saba Island

  Saba Island is an overseas territory of the Netherlands. With a population of about 1, 900 people and a land area of about 13 square kilometers, it is the smallest island territory in the Caribbean.  The first people to conquered Saba were Englishmen whose shipwreck landed in Saba in 1632(Virtual Caribbean).  By 1635, Frenchmen had claimed the island and Saba came under the rule of Louis XIII of France. The French conquest did not last long. By the 1640s, the Dutch, through the governor of Sint Eustatius, which is a neighboring island, conquered Saba.

Behind the Mask of Curaçao

 One of the islands that stood out to me the most out of my top three in the Caribbean would have to be Cura ç ao and the history behind their culture. I already told you why you should visit and stay for a week or two, but what if I tell you the history you would be walking over if you were to visit. What caught my eye was the dark history behind such colorful and beautiful colors throughout the island. Knowing the story of something or some place would make the experience better. With Arawak paintings found in the national park its told that the Arawak indians were the first to settle ( History and Culture ) then came the Spanish in the late 1400s looking for gold but later then realized the island was ''useless'', to them at least since they didn't find any gold or value there. Around the 1600s the dutch started settling after conquering the island from the spanish and brought  commerce, slavery, and trading( History and Culture ). From there later ...
