Antigua and Barbuda (Spanish for "ancient"
and "bearded") is a twin-island nation lying between the Caribbean Sea
and the Atlantic Ocean. It consists of two major inhabited islands,
Antigua (pronounced /ænˈtiːɡə/) and Barbuda and a number of
smaller islands (including Great Bird, Green, Guinea, Long, Maiden and
York Islands). Separated by a few sea miles, the group is in the middle
of the Leeward Islands part of the Lesser Antilles, roughly at 17
degrees north of the Equator. It could well be that Codrington Island is
actually Barbuda Island; certainly, there is a town of Codrington on
Barbuda.
Economy: Tourism dominates the economy, accounting for more than
half of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Antigua is famous for its many
exclusive luxury resorts. Weak tourist activity since early 2000 has
slowed the economy, however, and squeezed the government into a tight
fiscal corner.
Investment banking and financial services also make up an important part
of the economy. Major world banks with offices in Antigua include the
Bank of America (Bank of Antigua), Barclays, the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC)
and Scotia Bank. Financial-services corporations with offices in Antigua
include PriceWaterhouseCoopers. The US Securities and Exchange
Commission has accused the Antigua-based Stanford International Bank
owned by Texas billionaire Allen Stanford of orchestrating a huge fraud
which may have bilked investors of some $8 billion. (check status

The twin-island nation's agricultural production is focussed on its
domestic market and constrained by a limited water supply and a labor
shortage stemming from the lure of higher wages in tourism and
construction work.
Manufacturing is made up of enclave-type assembly for export, the major
products being bedding, handicrafts and electronic components. Prospects
for economic growth in the medium term will continue to depend on income
growth in the industrialized world, especially in the United States,
from which about one-third of all tourists come.
Language: English is the official language, but many of the
locals speak Antiguan Creole. The Barbudan accent is slightly different
from the Antiguan.
In the years before Antigua and Barbuda's independence, Standard English
was widely spoken in preference to Antiguan Creole, but afterwards
Antiguans began treating Antiguan Creole as a respectable aspect of
their culture. Generally, the upper and middle classes shun Antiguan
Creole. The educational system dissuades the use of Antiguan Creole and
instruction is done in Standard (British) English.
Many of the words used in the Antiguan dialect are derived from British
as well as African languages. This can be easily seen in phrases such
as: "Me nah go" meaning "I am not going". Another example is: "Ent it?"
meaning "Ain't it?" which is itself dialectical and means "Isn't it?".
Common island proverbs often can be traced to Africa.
