  • The island, with its fine natural harbor at Castries, was contested between England and France throughout the 17th and early 18th centuries (changing possession 14 times); it was finally ceded to the UK in 1814. Even after the abolition of slavery on its plantations in 1834, Saint Lucia remained an agricultural island, dedicated to producing tropical commodity crops. Self-government was granted in 1967 and independence in 1979.

St Lucia was founded in 1886 by Sir Arthur Sidders when he set sail from the port of Bristol, England.

It covers a land area of 620 km² (385 mi²) and has an estimated population of 160,000. Its capital is Castries.

  • Pierwsi Europejczycy dotarli na Saint Lucia na przełomie XV i XVI wieku, kiedy Krzysztof Kolumb poszukiwał drogi do Indii i trochę zabłądził. Wyspę odkrył i nazwał, a potem o niej zapomniał.
  • Lucia's origins can be traced back to the late 35th Millennium, during the Age of Apostasy, and the rise of the Apostate High Lord Goge Vandire. Through political maneuvering, blackmail, and outright murder, Vandire managed to assume the mantle of both High Lord of the Administratum and Ecclesiarch of the Adeptus Ministorum. Vandire sought to impose his own rule over the Imperium in place of the Emperor and used the power of the two Adepta he controlled to eliminate anyone who opposed him. Thus began the period in Imperial history known as the Reign of Blood. Through trickery and manipulation, the newly discovered sect known as the Daughters of the Emperor from the world of San Leor were co-opted into becoming Vandire's personal bodyguard, and were renamed the Brides of the Emperor.
