Caribbean

The Caribbean is a subregion of the Americas that includes the Caribbean Sea and its islands.

Because of a history of European colonization and immigration, the Atlantic slave trade from Africa, and indentured servitude from Asia, the modern Caribbean is one of the most ethnically diverse regions on the planet.

The word “cannibal,” the English variant of the Spanish word canibal, comes from the word caribal, a reference to the native Carib people in the West Indies, who Columbus thought ate human flesh and from whom the word “Caribbean” originated. By virtue of being Caribbean, all “West Indian” people are already, in a purely linguistic sense, born savage.
