St Lucia, 1828-1938

Collection: Caribbean Colonial Statistics from the British Empire, 1824-1950    Volumes    St Lucia, 1828-1938
First settled by Amerindians, St Lucia was settled by French colonizers in 1651; it would then change hands between Britain and France numerous times before being granted to the British by treaty in 1814. After introducing slavery to St Lucia, the French released their slaves in 1794 under Revolutionary law. The French army then joined with the released slaves to form the L'Armée Française des Bois to repel the British. The British re-took the island in 1796 and reintroduced slavery. The slaves were legally freed in 1834; then released from their apprenticeships in 1838. St Lucia attained a representative government in 1924, and then achieved independence in 1979.
