Antigua and Barbuda
Antigua and Barbuda is a twin-island country located in the Eastern Caribbean, known for its pristine beaches and tropical climate. The nation gained independence from Britain in 1981 and is a constitutional monarchy with King Charles III as head of state, represented locally by a governor-general.
Tourism is the main driver of the economy, making Antigua and Barbuda one of the region's most prosperous countries, though this economic dependence also creates vulnerability to global downturns and natural disasters. Offshore financial services and, formerly, online gambling have also played significant economic roles.
The country has experienced political dominance by the Bird family and faced major setbacks, such as the devastation of Barbuda by Hurricane Irma in 2017 and financial challenges linked to high-profile scandals. The main language is English.
