Overview
Background
Shipwrecked English colonists heading for Virginia first settled Bermuda in 1609. Bermuda has been self-governing since 1620 and is the oldest and most populous of the British Overseas Territories.
Vacationing on the island to escape North American winters first developed in Victorian times. Tourism continues to be important to the island's economy, although international business has overtaken it in recent years as Bermuda developed into an offshore financial center. A referendum on independence from the UK was soundly defeated in 1995.

Geography
A group of islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, east of South Carolina, lies in North America. Bermuda's archipelago consists of coral islands and islets, with ample rainfall, but no rivers or freshwater lakes.
Low hills separated by fertile depressions form the terrain. Limestone is a natural resource, and the pleasant climate fosters tourism. Town Hill is the highest point. The Atlantic Ocean is the lowest point.
