In spite of Singapore's small size, it has long had a major impact
on the world because of its geographical location and its wealth.
The British initially made the island a major port for the shipping
of goods and later as an airline hub for the region. These factors,
along with a steady government, have helped to contribute to the
country's affluence. This multicultural, multiracial, and
multi-religious island-nation is the envy of many countries in the
world, which have tried to emulate the economic success of
Singapore. The new edition of the Historical Dictionary of
Singapore has been completely rewritten since the first edition was
released 20 years ago. It relates the history of this country
through a chronology, an introductory essay, an expansive
bibliography, and over 500 cross-referenced dictionary entries on
significant persons, events, places, organizations, and other
aspects of Singapore history from the earliest times to the
present.
