Indo-China
. In Indo-China we have a vast tract of territory almost four times the size of France, blessed with a soil capable of producing almost any crop, free of the barren wastes which mar so many countries in the same latitude, richly watered by innumerable rivers and streams, possessing a mineral wealth not greatly inferior to its agricultural possibilities, endowed by nature with numerous superb harbours, the natural rendezvous of traders between the West and the Far East, situated in the midst of an ocean of vast islandsmany of which are unexcelled for the richness of their soiland yet exhibiting in spite of all these natural advantages a backwardness difficult at first to understand. It is now universally accepted that its primitive inhabitants were savage tribes of Malay origin, probably from the islands of the Pacific, and that they are represented to-day by the numerous wild tribes scattered over the great eastern range of mountains from Yun-nan to Cochin China. For about 100 miles the sea is studded with islandsKa-bao, Kak-ba, and the Pirate Islands, long the haunt of Chinese corsairs, being the most notable

A little bit of Sint Maarten/Saint Martin history
. The Carib Indians invaded the Caribbean islands about 1200, but contrary to popular belief, these people died from disease and never made it to St. The Arawaks were very innovative people and had various fiefdoms throughout the Caribbean islands. Carib Indians had attacked settlers in the southern Caribbean islands and Columbus was concerned for the safety of his people at Fort Navidad in the present-day Dominican Republic. In 1848 slavery was abolished in the Caribbean islands. Others went to Puerto Rico, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and the Virgin Islands for work. The French side experienced much slower development until 1985 when the French law of defiscalization gave tax incentives for French citizens and businesses to invest in the islands of the French West Indies, thus making investment more profitable

The Kurile Islands Dispute Case Number: 8 Case Identifier: KURILE Case Name: Kurile Islands Dispute I. In the aftermath of World War II, Japan lost those islands, the Kuriles to Russia.

On the other hand, the inhabitants on the islands just wish their hard lives to get easier, especially after the Cold War, due to economic difficulties without much help from the Russian government. Description 1) History J apan and Russia have a long and contentious history in the Kurile Islands.

Ponce De Leon discovered these islands in 1513 and named them “Las Tortugas” (Spanish for Turtles) because of the abundance of sea turtles and loggerhead turtles that he observed there. While the turtles provided fresh meat to sustain his crew, there was no fresh water on the islands so he added “Dry” to the name. It is also suggested that mariners added the work “dry” to navigation charts to warn of the lack of fresh water on the islands
