In the Bahamas, 700 islands make up the island that consists of long floral islands with some low hills. A lot of historical facts make up the island. The explorer Christopher Columbus first discovered the southeastern of the Bahamas and renamed it San Salvador island. After the island was discovered by Christopher Columbus, the Bahamas changed with the European colonizers a few times before becoming a crown colony ruled by the British empire. The majority of the island was ruled by Spain even though the Spanish tried to make an attempt to populate the island.     In 1629, the British claimed the island but did not rush to settle until 1648.
