Chiloé Island

The biggest island of Chile can brag the long coast, thick forests, great supplies of water and numerous small farms. In spite of that the island is situated only in a few meters from a mainland, it has its own interesting history. In 1567 Martin Ruiz de Gamba declared Chiloe by the propert of Spain and formed small guarding post-modernism here. After the revolt of American Indians of tribe of Mapuche in 1598 Chiloé Island isolated from rest of country. During 17th century only one time per a year a ship came here from Limy. In 1646 on the island the strongest earthquake was brought down, and settlers appealed to King of Limy with a request to abandon the island. In this request the King refused them. In spite of such clamant attitude toward chiloycam, all the same they remained devoted spanishes and, in finally, remained the last supporters of royal power in South America.

Although all country got independence from Spain in 1817 as a result of the septennial war, Chiloé Island took it easy to join in with a mainland and existed isolated to 1826. In this interval of time first chiloycy appealed to Great Britain with view of to become part of great empire. Great Britain threw out this suggestion, and now the island is a part of Chile.
