The West Indies are a group of islands that span over 2000 miles. The West Indies separates the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea from the Atlantic Ocean. Historians estimate that before European exploration and colonization, there were around 6 million inhabitants in the West Indies, but most of this population was decimated by European violence, slavery, and disease. The first permanent European settlement in the Americas was in the West Indies at Santo Domingo. The Spanish dominated the area until the English started to take over in the 17th century.
