  4. Economics • Plantation sugar production dominated Puerto Rico's economy until the 1940s. • Pharmaceutical, electronics, and apparel industries have been the most important, along with food processing, oil refining, and the manufacture of machinery and chemicals.

  5. Economics • Coffee, pineapple, plantains, and bananas are other leading crops. • Reforestation has been undertaken to restore tropical woods in the interior, where the Caribbean National Forest is set apart.

  6. Politics • Despite all available sources of entertainment Puerto Ricans amuse themselves with one predominant activity-Politics. Puerto Ricans seem to breathe Politics in their daily lives--and seem to enjoy immensely the activities of politicians. • There was a desire for freedom in Puerto Rico, too, but with two distinguishing characteristics. Puerto Ricans wanted change but rejected violence.

  7. Environment • The island has dozens of miles of sandy beaches, some long and straight, others broken into coves by headlands. • Puerto Rico is situated in the Caribbean slightly east of the Dominican Republic. The island offers a variety of terrain such as rainforests, grasslands, pristine beaches, and mountains.

  8. Society and Culture • Under Spanish rule, Puerto Rico had several governors. The governors were selected by the King of Spain. Ponce De Leon was one of the first governors selected by the King. • Under the leadership of Ponce De Leon, the culture and political environment that existed in Spain was imposed on the island.
