The History of the Falkland Islands Part 1 | Discovery, Settlement and Sovereignty

In Part 1 of this two-part series, Sarah and James explore the early history of the Falkland Islands.

From the first European sightings and competing territorial claims to settlement and life on the islands, we trace the events that shaped the Falklands long before the conflict of 1982.

Join us as we examine the people, politics, and history behind one of the world's most disputed island groups.
