Aruba history  

Aruba history overview

Aruba history strats with the nautical discoveries of Christopher Columbus in the 1490s and the decision of Spain to establish a landed empire in the Caribbean after 1502.

For Aruba history these events initiated a process that is still ongoing in the area.

Two generations more than sixty-six per cent of the people living in the newly-created Spanish towns as well as in Aruba were mixtures between the conquering Spanish and African invaders and the subject populations.

Mixing of any sort remains a notable Aruba history characteristic.
