The history of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands dates back to the Ramayana period. In the first century, Ptolemy referred to the islands as Agadaemon Angademan. Here are some other historical events related to the Andaman Islands: In 1788, the East India Company appointed Lt. Archibald Blair to survey the Andaman Sea. In 1789, Blair reached the Andaman Islands and named the port after the then Governor General Lord Cornwallis. In 1789, the British colonized the Andaman Islands to establish a naval base and penal colony. In 1794, the British sent 100 prisoners to the island, but the settlement was abandoned in 1796. In 1858, the British established a colony near Port Blair. In 1950, most of the Andaman Islands became part of the Republic of India. In 1956, the Andaman Islands were declared a union territory of India. In 1945, the British recaptured the islands after over 2,000 Indians died during the Japanese occupation. In 2001, the Andaman and Nicobar Command was created to safeguard India’s interests in Southeast Asia and the Strait of Malacca. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are home to several tribes, including the Onge, Jarawa, and Sentinelese.
