History of Guadeloupe
Guadeloupe is located in the Caribbean Sea, and is considered to be an insular region of France. It is officially part of the European Union, uses the Euro as its form of currency, and has French and Creole as its major languages. Creole is a language whose roots are in French, with some regional dialect added in. Although it only has a land area of 629 square miles, it has a population of over 400,000 people. Guadeloupe is also known for its fantastic climate, with temperatures ranging from 84 to 88 degrees year round.
Guadeloupe was named by Christopher Columbus after he explored the land in the late 1400s. Before the French took over, the country was ruled by both Spain and England at different times. Guadeloupe is rich in the sugar industry, which was the main reason why it was so sought after for so long, and is the major piece of Guadeloupe’s economy outside of tourism. There have been a surprising number of professional athletes that have come from Guadeloupe, and as a result, its soccer team is rising in the International rankings.
