英文注释:

"In the dual-island republic, Trinidad is often seen as the mother island. Stepmother [of Trinidad and Tobago], actually. In 1889, the British attached Tobago to nearby Trinidad as a way to cope with a particularly messy bankruptcy: A London financial company had failed, putting most of Tobago's sugar plantations out of business and destroying the local economy. Since joint independence in 1962, Tobago has been unified with Trinidad."

—From "Limin' Time," January/February 1999, Traveler magazine
