-==Background==
-No one was living on Bermuda when it was discovered by the Spanish in 1505 nor a century later when it was settled by the British. People from Africa and Native Americans from the 13 colonies were soon brought to Bermuda as slaves.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bermuda Bermuda], (accessed 23 November 2020).</ref> Bermuda is part of the British Overseas Territories. <ref>Wikipedia contributors, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Overseas_Territories British Overseas Territories], (accessed 23 November 2020).</ref>
