The influence the Spaniards had on Trinidad and tobago?

Answer 1

During the sixteenth century, the Spanish influence on the islands of Trinidad and Tobago was strong. However, by mid-sixteenth century that influence was already starting to wear away, with French influence overtaking the Spanish. Finally by the last part of the eighteenth century, the islands were no longer Spanish. The Spanish language was preserved, however, and today the islands are two of the few regions still speaking Castilian Spanish.
