San Monique

The Republic of San Monique is an island nation located in the Caribbean. The island is located East of the Bahamas archipelago and North of the Dominican Republic. The country was originally inhabited by Taino tribes before French colonisation. French colonists first used the Taino for slave labour in menial tasks, but later introduced and brought slaves from West Africa. France lost the island when the slaves revolted during the Seven Years War, and was ceded to Great Britain whom crushed the revolt. As a British colony, San Monique would be given independence in 1963. The country, demanding reparations for centuries of colonial subjugation immediately became antagonistic to the British government.

San Monique today is openly hostile to the CDC. It is also one of the very few allies of Frankish Argentina.
