of tropical islands in the Lucayan Archipelago, part of the larger
Antilles island grouping. They are known primarily for tourism and as an
offshore financial centre. The total population is about 31,500, of whom
approximately 27,000 live on Providenciales in the Caicos Islands.<BR>The
first recorded sighting of the islands now known as the Turks and Caicos
occurred in 1512. In the subsequent centuries, the islands were claimed by
several European powers with the British Empire eventually gaining
control. For many years the islands were governed indirectly through
Bermuda, the Bahamas, and Jamaica. When the Bahamas gained independence in
1973, the islands received their own governor and have remained a separate
autonomous British Overseas Territory since. In August 2009, the United
Kingdom suspended the Turks and Caicos Islands' self-government after
allegations of ministerial corruption.<SUP><SPAN

the islands after the November 2012 elections.<BR><A
