Caribbean

Caribbean My favorite country in the world When you think about all the countries in the world, it is quite difficult to decide on one particular favorite. There are just so many great nations, great people, and great cultures. But one country that has really captured my attention has to be the great island of Martinique in the Caribbean. A beautiful place to be sitting under the shade drinking a cold glass of lemonade. Martinique is roughly six times the size of our Washington D.C. This island was colonized by France in 1635 and basically remained under French rule until today. The capital and their largest city is Fort-de-France. When France inhabited Martinique, its sole purpose was to put slaves to work on its sugar plantations. Still today, sugar cane and agriculture are the integral part of this country’s economy. That’s why African and African mixtures make up 95% of Martinique’s population. While whites only makes 5% of the population. And I will guarantee you that it is the minority that is ruling the majority.
