A number of Carribbean islands were part of the British Empire and have close ties to the UK. https://www.timeout.com/london/music/50-things-you-didnt-know-about-notting-hill-carnival https://news.met.police.uk/news/update-on-notting-hill-carnival-policing-operation-471338 https://www.bl.uk/west-india-regiment/articles/an-introduction-to-the-caribbean-empire-and-slavery
