Bahamas

The Bahamas are a group of Islands in the Atlantic Ocean.

The Bahamas became a British Crown Colony in 1718, as the British clamped down on piracy after Queen Anne's War, in the era of Blackbeard. They remained a Crown Colony until 1973. As such they were a part of the British Empire, all of which was at war with the Central Powers during WWI. Probably the greatest contribution of the Bahamas to the cause was as a base for the Royal Navy, on the lookout for commerce raiders, surface ships evading the blockade of Germany to reach the open seas and prey upon British and Allied merchant ships. This was not a huge threat, however. German submarines of WWI lacked the cruising range to get to this side of the Atlantic, and so were also not a threat. I know of no unit of colonial troops from the Bahamas which fought in Europe, or in Africa or the Middle East where there was also some combat. Individual Bahamians may have fought

The proprietary government in the Bahamas was established in the 17th century as part of a colonial strategy to promote settlement and economic development in the islands. This system allowed private individuals, known as proprietors, to govern the territories, encouraging investment and the establishment of plantations. The proprietors were motivated by the potential for profit through agriculture and trade, particularly in lucrative crops like cotton and tobacco. The arrangement aimed to enhance the colony's productivity while ensuring that the interests of the proprietors aligned with those of the British Crown.

JAMAICA became a member of the Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) on 1973 August 1 when the Government, together with the Governments of Barbados, Guyana, and Trinidad and Tobago signed the Treaty of Chaguaramas which established the Organization.
