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 Naranjales barrio and Río Cañas Arriba barrio was 1,048.[6]

gollark: I should probably readd Polychoron's event preprocessor thing.
gollark: Some bits of the architecture are not great, but it's easy to run your own stuff on top of it.
gollark: CraftOS, I think, is basically fit for purpose, since it lets you run your own programs without much hassle. It could use a package manager but it's otherwise pretty great.
gollark: Well, it has a GUI (which I don't like personally, but meh), a package manager, and many useful libraries and programs.
gollark: What do you mean "better"? I'm not convinced that any OS actually is really *better* than CraftOS for things people actually use them for, except possibly Opus, primarily due to its good bundled programs/libraries.
