Cuba

Cuba is a huge island with a population of bandits, smugglers and prostitutes. Even Cuba’s merchants and planters are happy to trade with pirates, smugglers and anyone else offering a good deal, despite what laws and regulations may demand. Many of the plantation owners and merchants feel a growing resentment towards Spain and particularly its mercantilism; it is likely that this resentment will erupt into open revolt before too long.

Cuba is also rumored to house some practitioners of voodoo magic.

Havana, the main town of Cuba, is major military center for Spain in the Indies. It is surrounded by fortifications, including the monstrously powerful castle of El Morro. As a shipbuilding center, it is also likely to have several small warships and merchantmen in its harbor at any time.
