Geography, Location & General Information<br />
Located in the Caribbean Sea, East of Puerto Rico, Anguilla was colonized by English settlers<br />
from St. Kitts in 1650. It was administered by Great Britain until the early 19th Century. After<br />
several attempts at separation, the country was allowed to secede in 1971 and this was<br />
formally recognized in 1980, with Anguilla becoming a separate British dependency.<br />
