Here is a very short history of Trinidad taken from the tourist board website:

Trinidad and Tobago was "discovered" in 1498, when the Spanish explorer, Christopher Columbus, landed on our shores. In reality, we were already "found" and occupied by the indigenous Amerindian tribes of the Arawaks and Caribs.

Trinidad remained in the hands of the Spanish from the 15th Century until the British captured it in 1797 - we then became a British colony in 1802. Tobago, by contrast, was ruled at one time or other by a myriad of European powers, including the Spanish, Dutch, French and British. Tobago, too, was decreed a British colony in 1814, and the Crown enjoined us administratively in 1889. Trinidad and Tobago achieved independence from England in 1962 to become the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago.

For real you may want to check out a library, I like the Lonely Planet's exposition on it...

Good luck!

If you come from Trinidad wouldn't you know??

Open a book on Trinidad and find out...
If you read amazing things happen, you learn something.
(maybe even how to spell)
