    St.Kitts & Nevis

    Services

    A Caribbean nation of two, intertwined as a Federation and known by the conjoined name, St. Kitts and Nevis, which is said to memorialize Christopher Columbus. This Federated state retains its membership in the Commonwealth having been granted independence from British rule in 1983. St. Kitts and Nevis maintain a Parliamentary System of Democracy with the Prime Minister as the leader of the government while Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II serves as head of state.

    Its economy is largely driven by the tourism industry. The attractive features that draw travelers are beautiful beaches with mountains and jungle draped, dormant volcanoes.

    The government seeks investment from overseas in what is seen as a positive Investment Program and which, in turn, will accrue much value to the citizens and polity of St. Kitts and Nevis.
