I have read about Jamaica in Searching 10, because it was homework for Wednesday (11.04). In this text I will write a short type of summary. It is mostly about what I think was interesting in the text.
I start with some basic facts. The capital in Jamaica is Kinston. Kingston is also the largest city. The population in Jamaica: 2,780,000. And the Area is 10,991 km². The official language is English. It is the third most populous English-speaking country in the Americas.
Christopher Columbus was the first European who came to Jamaica in 1494.Jamaica is an island in the Caribbean Sea, just south of Cuba. The island was a British colony from 1665 to 1962.
One thing Jamaica has become known for is the musical form reggae. Reggae is an African Caribbean style of music and has elements of blues, calypso, soul and rock.
I have never been in Jamaica, but would like to go there some day. J
