Wikijunior:North America/Montserrat
Montserrat is an island in the Caribbean. It is a territory of the United Kingdom. The volcano on Montserrat started erupting in 1985 and continued for many years, destroying the capital and forcing the evacuation of most of the island. Since then Montserrat has been adjusting to the new state of the island, and is slowly rebuilding on the safer part of the island.
