The two islands were eventually united under British rule and gained independence in 1983. Saint Kitts and Nevis became a member of the Commonwealth of Nations and has a parliamentary democracy with a constitutional monarchy. The islands' economy relies heavily on tourism, agriculture, and offshore financial services. Throughout its history, Saint Kitts and Nevis has faced challenges including slavery, European colonization, and economic struggles.
