The Isle of Man, a dependency of the British Crown located in the Irish Sea equidistant from Ireland, Scotland and England. Capital: Douglas.Agriculture, dairy farming, fishing and tourism are the chief industries. The prevalence of prehistoric artifacts and monuments on the island give evidence that its’ mild, almost sub-tropical climate was enjoyed by mankind before the dawn of history. Vikings came to the Isle of Man during the 9th century and remained until ejected by the Scottish in 1266. The island came under the protection of the British Crown in 1288, and in 1406 was granted, in perpetuity, to the earls of Derby, from whom it was inherited, 1736, by the Duke of Atholl. The British Crown purchased the rights and title in 1765; the remaining privileges of the Atholl family were transferred to the crown in 1829. The Isle of Man is ruled by its own legislative council and the House of Keys, one of the oldest legislative assemblies in the world.
