The new plantation activity was largely the work of slaves of African origin, who immediately became a large part of the population. A second important immigration wave occurred in the second half of the century. XIX, involving, until 1917, as many as 150,000 people (Indians, Chinese, etc.). Even in Tobago, whose first colonization dates back to 1632, the immigration contribution was always conspicuous.
