Montserrat is an island in the Caribbean. It is an overseas territory of the United Kingdom. The island is located southwest of Antigua and northwest of Guadeloupe. Much of the island was devastated by a series of Soufriere Hills volcano eruptions that began on July 18, 1995. 75% of the population fled the island. The capital Plymouth was officially abandoned in 1997 due to the volcanic eruptions. A transitional government seat was established in Brades, on the northwestern end of the island.
