West Indies, archipelago, between North and South America, curving c.2,500 mi (4,020 km) from Florida to the coast of Venezuela and separating the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico from the Atlantic Ocean. The archipelago, sometimes called the Antilles, is divided into three groups: the Bahamas; the Greater Antilles (Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico); and the Lesser Antilles (Leeward Islands, Windward Islands, Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados) and the islands off the northern coast of Venezuela.\nThe British dependent territories are the Cayman Islands, the Turks and Caicos Islands, Anguilla, Montserrat, and the British Virgin Islands. The Dutch possessions are Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles (Curaçao, Bonaire, Saint Eustatius, Saba, and part of Saint Martin). The French overseas departments and administrative regions are Guadeloupe and its dependencies and Martinique. Puerto Rico is a self-governing commonwealth associated with the United States, and the Virgin Islands of the United States is a U.S. territory. Margarita belongs to Venezuela.\n\nMany of the islands are mountainous, and some have partly active volcanoes. Hurricanes occur frequently, but the warm climate (tempered by northeast trade winds) and the clear tropical seas have made the West Indies a very popular resort area. Some 34 million people live on the islands, and the majority of inhabitants are of black African descent.

It would be the Royal House of Windsor. If the colonies which became the USA would not have separated from Great Britain they would still be part of the British Commonwealth with Queen Elizabeth II as their Queen. But this just wasn't meant to be.

Aren't you going to give us the names of the 13 Colonies? \nOr do we have to look that up for you too?

If they were willing to be annexed, I'd be all for it. The Caribbean Islands all have much in common with the US. They are the only place in the world other than the US which still use tradional non-metric units of measure. Many contries either use the US dollar or use a currency on par with the US dollar (ie 1 Bahamian dollar always = 1 US dollar.)\n\nI used to go to the Bahamas a lot when I lived in Florida and I think they would be receptive to becoming a US state.\n\nAnd having the Carribean as US states would definitely enhance both Homeland Security and drug enforcement.

Mr Phelps and Mr Hunt are asked about two different movies which are region specific (due to where the mission is going to be)\nEthan is asked this\n"Would you consider the cinema of the Caribbean? Aruba, perhaps?"\nDon't remember what Phelps is asked.\n\nNever mind, I remember.. it was the cinema of the Ukraine for Phelps.

Originally it was set up as a penal colony for all prisoners. This was done by the English. Just ship them there is what they did by sailing.

Trinidad was the first inhabited island of the Caribbean, settled by Amerindians from South America as early as 5000 BC. They called it "Ieri", the land of the hummingbird. When Christopher Columbus "discovered" the island in 1498 – naming it Trinidad after the three peaks of the Trinity Hills – there was a population of 35,000, who had trade links to South America.\nTobago was occupied by Caribs. Columbus called the island Bella Forma when he sighted it. Today, its present name is a corruption of tobacco, a crop which the native Caribs grew.
