Martinique is truly a land of tradition and culture, with a rich history of crafts and literature by renowned authors and famous poets, music and dance, lifestyle and gastronomy. Its multi
ethnic population stems from the cultural mixing of the islandâs successive inhabitants: Amerindians, Europeans, Africans, Indians, Levantines and Asians.
Christopher Columbus discovered the island on June 15, 1502 and Martinique became French under Louis XIII, a colony attached to the French crown marked by an economic and social system based on slavery and framed by the publication of the black code in 1685.
From the 18th century Martinique society was marked by revolutionary influences and emancipation struggles leading to the abolition of slavery on May 22, 1848. At the beginning of the twentieth century appear assimilationist claims leading to the erection in 1946 of Martinique in French department. By the law of 31 December 1982, Martinique also became a monodepartmental Region and took the name of «Département et région d'outre mer» following the constitutional reform of March 2003.
