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 Rincón and Monte Llano barrios was 1,374.[6]

gollark: Actually, all are to learn Zig all the time always.
gollark: I've read a nonzero amount of Zig code and documentation, so I'm about as qualified as most people™.
gollark: I read somewhere that in ye olden times™, people would mostly get shipped proprietary programs as obfuscated source with macros expanded and such so they could compile it themselves. So probably.
