I know of Trinidad. Trinidad is one of the world's largest producers of Petroleum. There is an entire lake filled with nothing but Petroleum. It's called Pitch Lake. Also, Trinidad is home to the largest Carnival celebration in the caribbean. The steel pan instrument comes from Trinidad. In addition to that, the Island is home to a number of famous recording artists and dignitaries. The "RAPSO" style of music was started in Trinidad by Cheryl Byron. RAPSO combines Poetry and Spoken word. Also, Soca and Calypso were started in Trinidad and Tobago. It's a very interesting Island. The Island isn't as "famous" as Jamaica because it doesn't have to rely on tourism to make its money. The country has the resources to do that on its own.
