As we commemorate the 60th anniversary of Trinidad and Tobago's Independence, we recall the events that led up to Independence as well as the Independence Day celebration. Journey with us through the various historical and other resources available at the National Archives of Trinidad and Tobago. In addition to the "Road to Nationhood: From Crown Colony to Republicanism"  exhibition, learn important facts about our national flag and symbols, and relive the first Independence Day through the speeches by our first Prime Minister, Dr. Eric Williams.
