!!!Anguilla %%image_right [{GoogleMap location='Anguilla' type='embedded' zoom='bounds' width='450' height='350'}] %% [{Image src='av-lgflag.gif' class='image_left' height='150' width='226'}] Colonized by English settlers from Saint Kitts in 1650, Anguilla was administered by Great Britain until the early 19th century, when the island - against the wishes of the inhabitants - was incorporated into a single British dependency along with Saint Kitts and Nevis. Several attempts at separation failed. In 1971, two years after a revolt, Anguilla was finally allowed to secede; this arrangement was formally recognized in 1980, with Anguilla becoming a separate British dependency. %%menu-geo %%cols-r * %%icon-geo,geo %% [Geography|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Geography] * %%icon-geo,maps %% [Maps|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Maps] * %%icon-geo,culture %% [Culture|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Culture] ---- * %%icon-geo,special %% [Special Information|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Special_Information] * %%icon-geo,picture %% [Pictures|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Pictures] * %%icon-geo,community %% [Community Contributions|Geography/Territories_Oceans_and_Islands/Anguilla/Community_Contributions] %% %%
