About Jamaica
Jamaica is a Caribbean island nation with a population of about 2.8 million. Kingston is the capital and largest city. Jamaica is known worldwide for its music (reggae, dancehall), culture, and cuisine. The Jamaican diaspora, particularly in the US (New York, Miami, Atlanta), UK, and Canada, is very large relative to the island's population, driving constant international calling traffic.
