Guadeloupe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guadeloupe is dependency of France in the Caribbean Sea. It is made up of five islands. Its capital is Basse-Terre. Arawak Native Americans first lived on the islands, but they were wiped out when Europeans came. Guadeloupe was first governed by France. It was then taken over by England, given to Sweden, and given back to France.
Today, most of the people in Guadeloupe are Roman Catholic, and are of African descent.
