Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77653750 Or, why don't you just say what you mean instead of posting vague shit? Thanks for asking nicely. Britain purchased the Chagos Archipelago from Mauritius in 1965 for £3m, creating a region known as the British Indian Ocean Territory. Between 1967 and 1973, it evicted the islands' entire population to make way for a joint military base with the US, which is still in place on Diego Garcia.
