Question

i need to locate it on my history hw but i'm having trouble cause the ones i find online are just the shape of the island with no longitude & latitude or surrounding countries to give me a clue on where it is. a link would be quite useful. thanks

Answer 1

Your best bet will be to look for a map of the Caribbean. The CIA World Factbook has a good one in PDF format that should be public domain - https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/reference_maps/pdf/central_america.pdf

See, Barbados only measures about 20 miles x 14 miles, and because it's not part the Caribbean archipelago, it's quite a ways off to the east, more than 100 miles from it's nearest neighbours - St Lucia and St Vincent.

So on any map large enough to show neighbouring islands there won't be much detail of Barbados, just a rough outline.

If you're looking for latitude and longitude, it's roughly 13°N and 59°W.

Google Earth may be able to give you a good view of the eastern Caribbean islands.

Answer 2

Try Downloading google earth. it will give you an Ariel view of the whole world right down to the last license plate. you can put in where you are starting from and where you are going and it prints a map and turn by turn directions. If you use a search engine like yahoo or google there will be 5 or 6 download cites. Take the free download one. Then check out the pyramids, your house everything is there it's amazing.

Answer 3

Just what the girl above me said.. Barbados is its own country, an island that has no surrounding countries such as Europe, and Africa.

Answer 4

Trinisalt has it right, we do not have any surrounding countries unless you count Africa to the east and St Lucia to the west. Trinisalt also gave correct data re location.
