Montserrat is one of the Leeward Islands and a British colony. It was sighted by Columbus in 1493, disputed between France and Britain, and finally confirmed to Britain by the treaty of Versailles in 1783. It relies mainly upon tourism, cotton, and light industry, but was severely damaged by a volcanic eruption in 1995.
