Kalinago (Carib) people inhabited Dominica for millennia and resisted European settlement until the 1690s when French colonists established plantations using enslaved Africans; the 1763 Treaty of Paris ceded Dominica to Britain, entrenching a plantation economy focused on sugar and coffee .
Post-emancipation (1834), Dominica remained a British colony until associated statehood (1967) and full independence on 3 November 1978; recent decades have seen diversification into eco-tourism, resilience building after Hurricane Maria (2017), and investment in renewable energy and climate adaptation .
