In 1756 France / the French East India Compagny took possession of the Seychelles; in 1811
Britain. In 1903 the Seychelles were
turned into a separate crown colony; until then, under the French as well as under the British, it had been a dependency of
Mauritius. In 1976 the Seychelles were released into independence. Historical Atlas, Seychelles .. British East Africa Page |
