St. Helena
Saint Helena, named after St Helena of Constantinople, is an island of volcanic origin in the South Atlantic Ocean approximately 1200 west of Angola. Saint Helena measures about 16 by 8 kilometres and had a population of 4,255 in 2008.
The island has a history of over 500 years since it was first discovered as an uninhabited island by the Portuguese in 1502. Britain's second oldest remaining colony (after Bermuda), Saint Helena is one of the most isolated islands in the world and was for several centuries of vital strategic importance to ships sailing to Europe from Asia and South Africa. For several centuries, the British used the island as a place of exile, most notably for Napoleon Bonaparte.
It began issuing postage stamps as a British Crown Colony in 1856.
