Montserrat experienced significant destruction due to volcanic eruptions, particularly from the Soufrière Hills volcano, which began erupting in 1995. The capital city, Plymouth, was largely buried under ash and debris, leading to its abandonment. While not the entire island was destroyed, much of the southern part, including Plymouth, was rendered uninhabitable, significantly impacting the population and economy. The northern part of the island remains inhabited and is still vibrant.
