What is the connection between Montserrat and Ireland?
There are many connections between Montserrat and Ireland. There are a lot of people of Irish ancestry in Montserrat. When Montserrat was under British control, many people were sent from Ireland as slaves and prisoners to Montserrat to work on the sugar plantations. This would have been during the 18th century. Many of the Irish people stayed there and settled and to this day, many people there claim Irish ancestry. Parts of Montserrat also resemble parts of the coast of Ireland. Ireland has a nickname "The Emerald Isle". Montserrat is nicknamed "The Emerald Isle of the Caribbean". St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is also the patron saint of Montserrat.

What is Montserrat's nick name?

Why is Montserrat called Emerald island?
Montserrat is known as the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean partly because of its green landscape and partly because of its Irish heritage (Ireland is known as The Emerald Isle). Back in the 17th century, the majority of people in Montserrat were Irish, even though it was officially under British rule - this is because Irish Catholics were persecuted on other Caribbean islands. The Irish therefore left their stamp on the island in ways that can still be seen today - towns were given Irish names and nowadays many of the residents have Irish surnames. Montserrat is also the only country outside Ireland where St Patrick's Day is a national holiday. See www.visitmontserrat.com for more info!
