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 Susúa and Torre barrios was 1,755.[6]

gollark: Mathematicians, in fact, require no worldly posessions, because they feed themselves by proving that they have food and water.
gollark: But they're hoarding their arbitrarily powerful computers and infinitely large RAM chips!
gollark: Just steal an arbitrarily powerful computer from the mathematicians and use bruteforce.
