In 1768, France occupied the islands and in 1794 they were seized
by Britain. From 1814 they were ruled as part of Mauritius and
in 1903 they became a separate colony. Complete independence was
obtained on June 29, 1976 and the first President was ousted in a
coup a year later. A new constitution was announced in March
1979 and the country has been turned into a one-party state.
