If you are a
lover of beaches, enjoy boating, sunworshiper or have a strong interest
in the coastline, than islands are good place for your next vacation.
Islands are located in a variety of climates and cultures. These
heavenly hideaways
boast a range of topographies and vegetation in some of the most
beautiful settings on earth.
Today
the
great importance of tourism, offshore banking, "assembly" factories,
and
indeed the drug trade are evident in some of the islands and their
economy. But in the past it was a lust
for gold (for Spanish explorers); commitment
to sugar plantations took hold requiring the cheapest form of labor -
slavery (European
explorers). Many times organized religion gets
credit
for bringing credible pressure on the political and social history and
controlling government. Visitors to any
island region should read available information about island they want
to visit in order to have a better understanding of the
similarities and differences of island communities based on the
historical specifics of their political and social history.
