Barbados entered the Commonwealth of Nations as an independent state
in 1966.
Thanks to tourism, Barbados no longer has to rely so heavily on
the price of sugar and the export of rum - foreigners now fly in to drink it.
The capital of Barbados, founded by the English in 1628, is
situated on Carlisle Bay; in the south-west of the island.
Like London, Bridgetown also has a Trafalgar Square, with its very own
statue of Nelson.
Garrison Savannah, a former parade ground, is now host to
international cricket matches and other sporting events.
