St. Kitts and Nevis changed hands many times between Britain and France. This is a common occurrence in the Caribbean. After the British occupied St. Kitts, the name was simplified to St. Kitts (Kitts is St. Kitts). Christopher's abbreviated name France), established the first British colony in the Caribbean. The architecture of this island country is very British (Victorian style), keep to the left, especially in the center of the capital: the Circus Square reproduces the "Berkeley Memorial Clock". In 1967, these islands became an associated country of the United Kingdom, with full internal autonomy. The Federation of Saint-Nephews and Anguilla formed a single overseas territory "Saint Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla". Until 1983, the Anguillans did not want to be part of the same political entity as the two islands and implemented the division. St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla was dissolved, St. Kitts and Nevis separated from the United Kingdom, but Elizabeth II is still the Queen to this day, and Anguilla continues to be a British Overseas Territory. In 1998, Nevis voted on a referendum to leave Saint Kitts, but it did not reach the required two-thirds majority.
Saint Ni has some ancient British fortifications, which have been restored and reproduce the smallest details of the original building. Saint Kitts and Nevis will be called for development in the near future. In fact, many projects are underway or completed, especially the huge docking to accommodate the largest liners and cruisers with docks, loading docks, etc.
The real characteristic tourism resources of St. Kitts and Nevis are mainly the natural aspects. Many tropical birds that are rarely found elsewhere are concentrated in nature, and there are also famous monkeys, which are said to be introduced by pirates. The new roads are mainly concentrated to the southeast end of St. Kitts (Turtle Beach), where people feel that some kind of activity in the air will make this part of the island a place of appreciation. In fact, a person only needs to venture in some small woods under the tree, holding some fruits in his hand, and he can quickly see himself being gently surrounded by monkeys to feed. On the other hand, for the residents of the island, the monkeys are not considered a big happy event, because these beautiful little furry people looted their crops. Affect the harvest.
