Resumen
Descripción
St. Vincent and the Grenadines
comprises a main island, Saint Vincent, and thirty-two other
islands, islets, and cays in the archipelago of the
Grenadines (SVG). It is a unicameral democracy, with fifteen
seats for elected members in the House of Representatives.
Historically, much of the economic activity was concentrated
on agriculture, particularly banana cultivation and export
to the United Kingdom (UK) and Europe. In April 2021, the
explosive eruption of the La Soufrière volcano in the north
of Saint Vincent destroyed much of Saint Vincent’s most
productive agricultural lands. This affected negatively SVG
as unlike most of its tourism-dependent neighbors, the
Vincentian economy is primarily agricultural.
