The British ruled this area from 1805 until 1978. Just one year after its
independence the island was hit by Hurricane David. This destroyed many
banana plantations, which are a mainstay of Dominica's economy. Coups were
attempted in 1980 and 1981. Dominica was important in the 1983 Grenada
invasion by the United States for logistical support.
