      @Anguilla

      Introduction Anguilla

      Background:

       Colonized by English settlers from Saint Kitts in 1650, Anguilla

       was administered by Great Britain until the early 19th century, when

       the island - against the wishes of the inhabitants - was

       incorporated into a single British dependency, along with Saint

       Kitts and Nevis. Several attempts at separation failed. In 1971, two

       years after a revolt, Anguilla was finally allowed to secede; this

       arrangement was formally recognized in 1980, with Anguilla becoming

       a separate British dependency.

      Geography Anguilla

      Location:

       Caribbean, islands between the Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic

       Ocean, east of Puerto Rico

      Geographic coordinates:

       18 15 N, 63 10 W
