Modern Singapore was founded in 1819 as a British settlement. It was captured by Japan during World War II, and returned to British administration in 1945. Self-government was granted by the British in 1959, and in 1963, Singapore joined Malaysia. It was separated from Malaysia in 1965, and re-instituted as an independent republic. It subsequently became one of the world's most prosperous countries, with strong international trading links (its port is one of the world's busiest) and with per capita GDP above that of the leading nations of Western Europe. See also the History of Singapore.
Singapore has a Westminster-style constitution. In practice, politics is dominated by the People's Action Party, which has ruled since Independence. The mode of government is perhaps closer to authoritarianism than true democracy. Paradoxically (for political scientists), Singapore has a highly successful, corruption-free, and transparent market economy.
Singapore's population is diverse. Chinese people account for 3/4 of the population. Malays are the second, and Indians are the third largest ethnic group. The official languages are English, Chinesem Malay and Tamil. Malay is also Singapore's national language.
