Colonial Borders and Manufactured Nations examines how the Caribbean was divided by imperial design and forced to inherit those divisions at independence. This episode traces how European empires drew borders for control, not community, then shows how those lines hardened into political identities that reshaped movement, culture, and power. It explores how administration became identity, how fragmentation was normalized, and how independence arrived inside systems never meant to serve Caribbean unity. This is a grounded examination of how borders outlived empire and continue to shape vulnerability, rivalry, and weakened collective strength across the region.
