Deteriorating economic conditions during the 1970s led to recurrent violence and a dropoff in tourism. Elections in 1980 saw the democratic socialists voted out of office, and a more conservative government installed. Political violence marred elections during the 1990s.

Jamaica is the largest of the West Indian islands. It has an area of 11,424 square kilometers, and is 243 kilometers long. Jamaica is a lush tropical island in the heart of the Caribbean. The most striking physical feature of Jamaica is its mountainous nature. Nearly half the island is over 300m above sea level. The mountains of the island are located mostly on the interior and can be broken up into three main groups. The first group situated in the eastern section is composed of the Blue Mountains. They are the highest mountains in Jamaica, reaching 2,250 meters and are about 75 kilometers long. The first group is also composed of the John Crow Mountains and are the most easterly mountains of the island, running form north-west to south-east in the parish of Portland, and divide the Rio Grande valley from the east coast of the island.

EXCHANGE RATES : BUY/SELL for 2003/03/21 Jamaica - Brief History Discovered by Columbus in 1494 and first settled (1509) by Spaniards, Jamaica was captured by England in 1655; formal cession was in 1670. A large African slave population worked sugar plantations in the 18th century when Jamaica was a leading sugar producer. The decline of sugar after the abolition (1838) of slavery created economic hardship, civil unrest, and British suppression (1865-84) of local autonomy. Rioting, sparked by poverty and British racial policies, recurred periodically, reaching a peak in 1938. In 1944 universal adult suffrage was introduced. After a brief period (1958-62) as part of the West Indies Federation, in 1962 Jamaica became an independent member of the Commonwealth. After 1972 a move toward socialism under Prime Minister Michael Manley led to violence between extremist factions and produced an economic crisis. Edward Seaga, a moderate, took office in 1980 and restored some measure of economic stability. In 1989 Manley's party returned to power with a more conservative program. Manley resigned in 1992, due to ill health, and was succeeded by P.J. Patterson, who subsequently won his own electoral mandate in 1993.

37. JAMAICAN HISTORY I The recorded history of jamaica may be roughly divided into six periods But verylittle is known about the days when the Spaniards were masters of jamaica. http://www.discoverjamaica.com/gleaner/discover/geography/history1.htm

JAMAICAN HISTORY I COLUMBUS TO THE DESTRUCTION OF PORT ROYAL The recorded history of Jamaica may be roughly divided into six periods: The first period may be said to date from Columbus’ arrival in the island in 1494 to the destruction of Port Royal in 1692. This covers nearly 200 years. But very little is known about the days when the Spaniards were masters of Jamaica. On the other hand, a good deal is known about the first fifty years of Jamaica as a British colony. The second period of our history extends from.the destruction of Port Royal to the abolition of the slave trade in 1807. During this time Jamaica flourished as an agricultural colony and became very rich. It reached the height of its prosperity just before the slave trade was abolished; that is, just before the British Government decided that no more slaves were to be brought from Africa and sold as private property The third period of Jamaican history covers the years between the abolition of the slave trade and the Morant Bay rebellion in 1865. During the 46 years between the abolition of the slave trade and the rebellion, the country passed through many misfortunes and there was a great deal of misery and ill-feeling among the different classes of people in the island. The fourth period dates from 1865 to the end of July, 1914.

Please select the Jamaica information you desire: Jamaica Travel Net brought to you by: Call Jamaica Travel Net! Jamaica's History Jamaica Historical Information: Jamaica was discovered by Christopher Columbus on May 4, 1494. The Spanish (who ruled the island until 1655) were the first Europeans to explore the Caribbean. They eventually settled the Greater Antilles and either killed or absorbed the Arawak Indians native to the larger islands. The Antilles held a favored position because of their proximity to gold deposits, supply of Indian labor, easy access, fertile soil, and favorable climate. The region became known for its production of sugar, coffee, spices, and tropical fruits. The importance of the Antilles declined as the Spanish advanced into the New World through Mexico and Peru, and the islands mostly became supply bases. For centuries the Caribbean was a war zone fought over by European powers - England, France, Spain, and Holland - as well as pirates. In this century, the Windward Passage became a major shipping route between the eastern United States and the Panama Canal. Back to Jamaica Information Index Page.
