'''Jamaica''' is an island country in the Caribbean Sea.

== History ==
In 1952, [[Canada]] and the [[United States of America|USA]] took over Jamaica's bauxite reserves.

In 1962, Jamaica became independent from the [[United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland|British]]. [[Norman Manley]]'s [[People's National Party]] invited foreign companies into the country, allowing them to extract raw materials. Norman's son [[Michael Manley]] came to power in the early 1970s on a [[Democratic socialism|democratic socialist]] agenda. He created the [[International Bauxite Association]], which consisted of Jamaica and six other countries. The IBA failed after [[Commonwealth of Australia|Australia]] and [[Federative Republic of Brazil|Brazil]] refused to sell bauxite at the agreed price, and Jamaica continued to rely on [[International Monetary Fund|IMF]] aid.<ref name=":1222">{{Citation|author=[[Vijay Prashad]]|year=2008|title=The Darker Nations: A People's History of the Third World|chapter=Kingston|page=225–7|pdf=https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/bafykbzaceascnzh26r5d6uitjjs2z7rflhaxlt7rboz5whzdf76qg6xxvecqq?filename=%28A%20New%20Press%20People%27s%20history%29%20Vijay%20Prashad%20-%20The%20darker%20nations_%20a%20people%27s%20history%20of%20the%20third%20world-The%20New%20Press%20%282008%29.pdf|publisher=The New Press|isbn=9781595583420|lg=https://libgen.rs/book/index.php?md5=9B40B96E830128A7FE0E0E887C06829F}}</ref>
