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 population of Pitahaya barrio was 1,103.[6]

gollark: Unrelatedly, it turns out that the large amount of 2-letter TLDs which exist now combined with the fact that 36^3 is a lot means that you can get 6-letter domains, and I mean 6 letter including the TLD and dot.
gollark: It also seems like a terrible protocol, design-wise.
gollark: I started actually doing backups instead of just having replicated copies of things recently, and I have something like 150GB of them.
gollark: The whole UPnP thing seems hilariously convoluted and bad and I don't know why they did it this way.
