The name of Cuba comes from the Taino language spoken by the Arawak natives, inhabitants of the Antilles before the arrival of the Spanish: it literally means “land” or “terrain”.
When Columbus discovered the island on 27 October 1492, he named it Juana in honor of Prince John (Juan), but in his first notes he was already using the word “Cuba”.
The history of Cuba is divided into three periods: Colonial, Neo-colonial and Revolutionary.
In terms of the formation of the nation, the birth of nationality occurred in the era of Spanish colonialism. The second period saw the creation of the Cuban national State even though there was an obvious situation of dependency on the United States of America. Finally, in the Revolutionary Period the nation attained a fully sovereign existence after the triumph of the Revolution on the first of January of 1959.
