dc.description.abstract | 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. | en |
