Trinidad

**Trinidad** (トリニダード, *Torinidādo*?) is one of the second group of ports to be unlocked in the first *Chocolatier* game and serves as one of the first post-tutorial ports. Opened by Evangeline Baumeister after being promoted to Novice Rank, alongside the ports of Quito and Rio de Janeiro, and located in the island of the same name, Trinidad is an important port story-wise, as Evangeline's sibling, Felix Baumeister, can be found here. It is also one of the sites which has its own varietal cacao, Trinidad Cacao.

## Information

Trinidad in the 1880s was a British colony located in the southern Caribbean, with a population of about 200,000 people. The island was primarily known for its production of sugar, cacao, and coffee, which were major exports for the colony.

The economy of Trinidad was dominated by large sugar estates owned by British planters, who relied heavily on indentured laborers from India to work the fields. Many of these laborers had been brought to the island to replace enslaved Africans after the abolition of slavery in the 1830s.

In addition to the Indian laborers, Trinidad was also home to a diverse population of people of African, European, Chinese, and mixed-race descent. The island was known for its vibrant cultural scene, with a fusion of African, Indian, and European traditions evident in its music, dance, and cuisine.

The capital city of Port of Spain was a bustling center of commerce and government, with grand colonial buildings and bustling markets. However, outside of the urban areas, the island was largely rural and agricultural, with small villages scattered throughout the countryside.

Trinidad was also home to several significant political and social movements in the 1880s. The labor movement was gaining momentum, as workers organized strikes and protests to demand better working conditions and wages. There were also movements for political independence, with Trinidadian leaders advocating for greater self-determination and representation in government.
