Bridgetown is the capital and only city of Barbados, home to approximately 110,000 residents in the urban area. It operates on Atlantic Standard Time (AST, UTC-4), a fixed year-round offset. Barbados is the easternmost Caribbean island and was one of the British Empire's wealthiest colonies — its sugar plantations, worked by enslaved Africans from the 17th to 19th centuries, funded much of Britain's industrial revolution. In November 2021, Barbados removed the British monarch as head of state and became a republic, with Dame Sandra Mason elected as the first President. The Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Barbados is the birthplace of Rihanna (Robyn Rihanna Fenty), who was appointed the island's first National Hero and Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in 2021. The island is famous for its rum (Mount Gay Rum, established 1703, is the world's oldest rum brand), cricket, and coral reef diving.
