* Trinidad and Tobago Review
- Trinidad and Tobago, officially the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, is an island nation in the Caribbean Sea in southern North America. The main island, Trinidad, is connected to Venezuela by the Trinidadian-Venezuelan Friendship Bridge. Its capital is Port-of-Spain.
- Trinidad and Tobago (i/ˌtrɪnɨdæd ən tɵˈbeɪɡoʊ/), officially the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, is an archipelagic state in the southern Caribbean, lying just off the coast of northeastern Venezuela and south of Grenada in the Lesser Antilles. More information on the Wikipedia page [1].
- Trinidad and Tobago is a tiny island nation off the coast of Cuba (even though most maps incorrectly place them of the coast off pitcairn islands, right next to the Southern Sandwich Isles, the reason for this is unclear) and is surrounded on all sides by the Sovereign State of the Seven Seas making it a somewhat hard to reach place. Nonetheless it has been a former colony of Spain, England and except France for a well-known scientific fact: they're in the middle of nowhere.
- Trinidad and Tobago is a country in the Southern Caribbean off the coast of Venezuela (South America). It is comprised of two islands; Trinidad (larger and more populated) and Tobago (more tourist-friendly)
- Trinidad and Tobago, officially the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, is a twin island country in the Caribbean.
- Trinidad and Tobago is a small island country off the coast of Venezuela. TnT is known to Neocons for having that funky Carnival celebration. Carnival in Trinidad is a celebration of Ash Wednesday. Now, one would think this would be a sissy Christian type carnival with no booze or nudity but nope. One would be wrong. Type in Trinidad Carnival on google. Go ahead. Actually, I'll do it for you.click nao! So go ahead and click. It's like Mardi Gras without ignorant southerners. It is also a little known fact that Tobago is used as a closet by Trinidad. No one actually lives there.
- The flag of Trinidad and Tobago is red with an enhanced bend stripe which is black, outlined in white.
- Many different religions are present in Trinidad and Tobago. The largest two are Roman Catholics (26%) and Hindus (22%). The Anglicans (8%), Muslims (5%), Seventh-day Adventists (4%), Presbyterians, Jehovah's Witnesses and Methodists are among the other faith groups represented. Two African syncretic faiths, the Shouter or Spiritual Baptists and the Orisha faith (formerly called Shangos, a less than complimentary term) are among the fastest growing religious groups, as are a host of evangelical and fundamentalist churches usually lumped as "Pentecostal" by most Trinidadians (although this designation is often inaccurate). A noteworthy Jewish community exists, as well as several other Eastern religions such as Taoism and Buddhism (0.7%).
- First colonized by the Spanish, the islands came under British control in the early 19th century. The islands' sugar industry was hurt by the emancipation of the slaves in 1834. Manpower was replaced with the importation of contract laborers from India between 1845 and 1917, which boosted sugar production as well as the cocoa industry. The discovery of oil on Trinidad in 1910 added another important export. Independence was attained in 1962. The country is one of the most prosperous in the Caribbean thanks largely to petroleum and natural gas production and processing. Tourism, mostly in Tobago, is targeted for expansion and is growing. The government is coping with a rise in violent crime.
- The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is a nation located in the southern Caribbean Sea, off the coast of Venezuela. It is an archipelagic state consisting of two main islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and 21 smaller islands, the most important being Chacachacare, Monos, Huevos, Gaspar Grande (or Gasparee), Little Tobago and St Giles Is. The larger and more populated island is Trinidad, while the island of Tobago is smaller (303 square kilometres; about 6% of the total area) and less populous (50,000 people; 4% of the total population). Citizens are officially called Trinidadians or Tobagonians or Citizens of Trinidad and Tobago, but are informally referred to as Trinis or Trinbagonians.
- A nice little country composed of a major island called Trinidad, a minor island named Tobago (actually the top of an underwater volcano) and some little islets nearby. The islands are so close to Venezuela that you could think they’re part of the country; however, they are considered part of the Caribbean because of their cultural ties with it (and the fact that the official language is English, not Spanish, albeit an English spiced with a lot of local words). This is also where the limbo dance originated (not from Hawaii, as is commonly believed).

* Trinidad and Tobago Review
- Trinidad and Tobago, officially the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, is an island nation in the Caribbean Sea in southern North America. The main island, Trinidad, is connected to Venezuela by the Trinidadian-Venezuelan Friendship Bridge. Its capital is Port-of-Spain.
- A nice little country composed of a major island called Trinidad, a minor island named Tobago (actually the top of an underwater volcano) and some little islets nearby. The islands are so close to Venezuela that you could think they’re part of the country; however, they are considered part of the Caribbean because of their cultural ties with it (and the fact that the official language is English, not Spanish, albeit an English spiced with a lot of local words). The island of Trinidad was originally inhabited by tribes coming from South America, until the arrival of the Spaniards, of course. The British took the island by the end of the 18th century. The island of Tobago was initially settled by the Dutch, but it ended up changing hands between the European powers until it ended in control of the English, when they combined it with Trinidad to form one entity. Eventually the country achieved its independence in 1962. The country has prospered and is one of the most developed countries in the Caribbean. The fact that oil and gas deposits are around has helped the economy. Not to mention the tourism, especially on Tobago. This is also where the limbo dance originated (not from Hawaii, as is commonly believed). Trinidad and Tobago shares a general Anglophone Caribbean culture with Guyana, Jamaica, Barbados, and other former British colonies in the area. However, it can probably be stated that the nation it shares the strongest cultural ties with is Guyana. Trinidad is where Chutney Music was invented, and it is extremely popular in both countries and among the diaspora from both countries. Similarly, Trinidad is where the Calypso and Soca music styles originated. Perhaps the most famous writer of the country is Sir Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul, also known as V.S. Naipaul, who writes books about colonialism (and who is also known for his Flame Bait comments). Other notable Trinidadians include Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Nicki Minaj, Haddaway (singer of What is Love?), and Billy Ocean, as well as Tatyana Ali and Alfonso Ribeiro.
