History

The United States took control of Puerto Rico from Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898. In 1899, the United States conducted its first census of Puerto Rico finding that the combined population of Lizas and Calzada barrios was 1,233.[6]

gollark: Not only is it not actually *true* that "every server" bans them, but that doesn't mean that "every server" makes a good decision.
gollark: Bad justification.
