a sovereign island country in the eastern Caribbean Sea on the boundary with the Atlantic Ocean.[5] Part of theLesser Antilles, it is located north/northeast of the island of Saint Vincent, northwest of Barbados and south of Martinique. It covers a land area of 617 km2 (238.23 sq mi) and has a population of 174,000 (2010). Its capital is Castries.The island was under French control for a long time, but the British took over for good after the defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1815. It was a British colony until it gained full independence in 1979. The island, which is volcanic, is more mountainous than many Caribbean islands. About a third of the population lives in the capital of Castries. The island is a commonwealth state with Elizabeth II as the head of state, much like Canada. It is a two-party parliamentary democracy. Tourism is huge for the economy, and here's why:
