7  The islands were originally uninhabited but later Maldivian and Arab marines and traders as well as pirates landed on the amazing shoreline.  During the Napoleonic wars, France ruled the archipelago but in 1812 the islands became a colony of the Kingdom of England. In the process of decolonization the Seychelles gained their independence from Great Britain in 1976 and became a free member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The symbolic Head of the Commonwealth is Elisabeth II but the real state representative is the President.

Local environmental legislation is very strict as the Seychelles are home to many endemic species and the fauna and flora eco-system is very fragile. Nowhere else in the world will you see coco-de-mer, the largest fruit and seed of all, also called a nut-of-love; the jellyfish tree, with only eight surviving examples, the giant tortoises and Seychelles Black Parrot – the national bird of the country.
