Mony believe the oreeginal name for the island in the Arawaks' leid wis "Iëre" which meant "Land o the Humming Bird". Some believe that "Iere" wis actually a mispronunciation or corruption bi early colonists o the Arawak wird "Kairi" which simply means "Island". Christopher Columbus renamit it "La Isla de la Trinidad" ("The Island o the Trinity"), fulfillin a vou he haed made afore settin oot on his third voyage o sploration.
<!--
History
Caribs and Arawaks lived in Trinidad long before Columbus encountered the islands on his third voyage in 1498. Tobago changed hands between the British, French, Dutch and Courlanders, but eventually ended up in British hands. Trinidad remained Spanish until 1797, but it was largely settled by French colonists from the French Caribbean, especially Martinique. In 1889 the two islands became a single crown. colony. Trinidad and Tobago obtained self-governance in 1958 and independence from the British Empire in 1962.
Geography
Major landforms include the hills of the Northern, Central and Southern Ranges (Dinah ranges), the Caroni, Nariva and Oropouche Swamps, and the Caroni and Naparima Plains.

Trinidad has two seasons per calendar year, the rainy season and the dry season.
Food
Trinidad is popular for its savory food options. The food is diverse, cultural and traditional in many cases. It is influenced by many different styles, such as East Indian, Spanish, African, Chinese and more. Over time it has been adapted and changed to what is known as Trinidadian food today. The most popular Trinidadian dishes include pelau (rice, vegetables and sometimes meat cooked together), doubles (an East Indian delicacy), roti, callaloo, bake and shark, crab and dumplings.
Culture
Diversity is the status quo in Trinidad and Tobago. It is sometimes known as a "rainbow island" or more fondly "a callaloo" (local dialect for a delicious dish prepared by blending a variety of ingredients). There is a wide range of ethnicity, religion, and culture. As of the 2012 Trinidad and Tobago Census,the population was 39.5% East Indian "Indo-Trinidadian", 29.5% African "Afro-Trinidadian", 23% mixed and 8% Other " Many of these groups overlap heavily due to admixture, for example "Dougla" is a common term used to describe a person which is of African and East Indian descent but may self-identify as either group.  Trinidad religion primarily centers round Roman Catholic, Anglican, Muslim and Hindu faiths. Roman Catholicism constitutes the largest religion denomination of the country. Some of the more popular religious festivals are the Santa Rosa Festival, Christmas, Easter, Divali, Eid Ul Fitr and Phagwa. There are also multiple festivals that are based around the music of the Caribbean and the steel pan, which originated in Trinidad and is the country's national instrument. These festivals include the world famous Carnival, J'ouvert, and Panorama, the national steel pan competition. There are also places that can be visited that hold cultural significance, such as Mount Saint Benedict and the Temple in the Sea.

Native animals include the Black Tailed Tree Boa, Red Brocket Deer, Collared Peccary, Red Howler Monkey, and Ocelot.

Geology
The Venezuela Tertiary Basin is a subsidence basin formed between the Caribbean and South American plates, and is bounded on the north by the coast ranges of Venezuela and the Northern Range of Trinidad, and bounded on the south by the Guayana shield. This Guayana shield supplied fine-grained clastic sediments, which with the subsidence, formed a regional negative gravity anomaly and growth faults. Oil and gas discoveries from the Pliocene Moruga Group include Teak (1968), Samaan (1971), Poui (1972) and Galeota. These fields are mainly faulted anticline traps producing from depths of 1.2 km to 4.2 km subsea, with Teak possessing a hydrocarbon column almost 1 km thick. -->

Soviet fowk
Soviet fowk or Soviet naition (советский народ ) or Citizens o the USSR (Граждане СССР) wis an umbrella demonym for the population o the Soviet Union. Initially uised as a nanspecific reference tae the Soviet population, it wis eventually declared tae be a "new historical, social an internaitional unity o fowk".
Naitionality politics in early Soviet Union
Throu the history o the Soviet Union, baith doctrine an practice regardin ethnic distinctions athin the Soviet population varied ower time. Minority naitional culturs wur no completely abolished in the Soviet Union. Bi Soviet definition, naitional culturs wur tae be "socialist bi content an naitional bi form", tae be uised tae promote the offeecial aims an values o the state. While the goal wis aye tae cement the naitionalities thegither in a common state structur, as a pragmatic step in the 1920s an early 1930s unner the policy o korenizatsiya (indigenization) the leaders o the Communist Pairty promotit federalism an the strengthenin o nan-Roushie leids an culturs (see national delimitation in the Soviet Union). Bi the late 1930s, housomeivver, policy shiftit tae mair active promotion o Roushie leid an later still tae mair overt Roushification efforts, which acceleratit in the 1950s especially in auries o public education. Awtho some assimilation did occur, this effort did no succeed on the whole as evidencit bi developments in mony naitional culturs in the territory efter the dissolution o the Soviet Union in 1991.
Reinforcin the distinctions in naitional identities, the Soviet state maintained information aboot "naitionality" on mony admeenistrative records, includin schuil, wirk, an militar records, as well as in the periodic censuses o population. The infamous "fift record" (пятая графа, pyataya grafa) wis the section o the obligatory internal passport document which statit the ceetizen's ethnicity (национальность, natsionalnost). In some cases, this offeecial naitionality servit as a basis for discrimination.
Soviet fowk as a poleetical concept
The 24t Congress o the Communist Pairty o the Soviet Union feenalisit this definition. This single aw-Soviet entity—the Soviet fowk, Sovietskiy narod—wis attributit mony o the characteristics that offeecial doctrine haed umwhile ascribit tae naitions (natsii – нации) an naitionalities (natsionalnosti – национальности) composin the multi-naitional Soviet state. The "Soviet fowk" wur said tae be a "new historical, social, an internaitional commonty o fowk haein a common territory, economy, an socialist content; a cultur that reflectit the pairticularities o multiple naitionalities; a federal state; an a common ultimate goal: the construction o communism."
Accordin tae the 2010 Roushie Census 27,000 Roushies identifee'd thairsels as the Soviet fowk.
