Spotlight on

St. ThomasQ \It• 'f"

HISTORY

The Virgin Islands lured more foreign nations than any other territory. The flags of six countries have flown over the Islands. Settlements date to 1500 BC, and people lived here 1,000 yearsbefore.

The First European settlement on St. Thomas consisted of four taverns. Now known as Charlotte Amalie, today it is a haven for shoppers, but was once a pirate sanctuary. Legitimate trade gainedpopularity in the 1700s when it was declared a free port, making it the trading center of the West Indies.

The 1800s brought great change. The indentured population gained freedom in 1843, just as the shipping trade transitioned from sailing to steam engine vessels. Ships traveled faster, increasingsea trade between Europe and the Americas. During the First World War United States forces feared St. Thomas' perfect port area might provide a dangerous base for German forces. The UnitedStates bought the Virgin Islands for $25 million in gold. Prosperity showered the island. In 1950s, 51.Thomas became a tourist mecca and enjoys this status today. More than 1.7 million cruise shipguests visited here last year to enjoy the duty-free shops, historic attractions, pristine beaches and friendly locals.
