Montserrat
|
 |
Montserrat is a self-governing overseas territory of the United Kingdom in the Caribbean. The main religion is Christianity. The main language is English. Montserrat became British in 1632 and a separate colony in 1967. The island is a parliamentary democratic dependency.
Much of this island has been devastated and two-thirds of the population has fled abroad due to the eruption of the Soufriere Hills Volcano that began on July 18th, 1995.
