Saint Lucia (or Sainte Lucie for the French speakers) is a special Carribean island. It is hilly, covered with rain forests, has a surface equal with two thirds of Cape Cod and counts 160 000 people.

From these 160 000 inhabitants (most of them African descents), Saint Lucia gave to the rest of the world two Nobel Prize winners. That means, that statistically speaking, Saint Lucia counts more Nobel prize winners than any other nation!

Saint Lucia was subject to 14 wars between France and Britain, which were both mesmerized by the beauty of this unique island. Today Fort Rodney is still a mute eye witness of the past glory, and a major tourist attraction.
