Bermuda

The first person known to have reached Bermuda was the Spanish Sea Captain Juan de Bermudez in 1503, after whom the islands are named.

Bermuda is made up of 181 small islands in the North Atlantic Ocean.

The islands became a British colony following the 1707 Unification  of the parliaments of Scotland and England, which created the Kingdom of Great Britain

Bermuda is British Overseas Territory(BOT) - the oldest among the remaining 14

Being citizens of a BOT,Bermudians enjoy the benefit that include being able to live & work in UK

In 1970 Bermuda changes its currency from the Pound to the Bermudian Dollar,whic is on par with US$
