Historical background


LOUIS XV - "ÎSLES DU VENT" / WINDWARD ISLANDS

(1/09/1715-10/05/1774)

The French seized the Lesser Antilles from 1635. They gained importance when the French and English found themselves in conflict from the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714). The French lost most of these islands by the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
