[Brief introduction] Located at the southeast end of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean Sea, it is separated from Venezuela by the sea to the west. In tropical maritime climates, the temperature is between 20 to 34 degrees. The island of Trinidad was initially inhabited by the Arawak and Carib Indians. In 1498, Columbus passed through the island and declared it to be owned by Spain, and in 1781, France occupied it. In 1802, it was transferred to Britain under the Treaty of Amiens. The island of Tobago was fought over by Spain, the Netherlands, France, and the United Kingdom before becoming a British colony in 1814 by the Treaty of Paris. In 1889, both islands became British colonies, with internal self-governance in 1956 and independence on August 31, 1962, and on August 1, 1976, when it was transformed into a republic and is now a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations.
