1. Finally formally separated from St Kitts-Nevis in December 1980, Anguilla is now a dependent territory on its own. Has reasonably advanced constitution and Ministerial form of Government. With no natural resources, development of economy depends on tourism. Some five hotel/villa complexes now under construction! Present Government sees independence as ultimate goal but not for another 10 years. Close links and friendly relations exist with nearest neighbouring island, Dutch/French St Martin, but a political union with either seems unlikely.
