Jamaica is an island country in the Greater Antilles of the Caribbean, of which it is the fourth largest island.

History

Jamaica was ruled by Spain throughout the 16th century and half of the 17th century. In 1655, however, the Spanish were forced off the island by the English. Jamaica remained English, and later British, until it gained full independence in 1962.

During the Colonial era, Lewis Hutchinson immigrated to the island and bought Edinburgh Castle in 1768. From 1770 until his arrest in 1773, Hutchinson resided in the castle, killing and robbing all of the people who wandered into his home.

Sometime in 1776, the Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton traveled to the island and infiltrated Edinburgh Castle, eventually collecting a piece of a map to Captain William Kidd's hidden treasure.
