Barbados in the Restoration

When the Restoration happened, Barbados requested to be made a crown colony, thinking its rights would be better protected.  In return for giving up his proprietary rights, Willoughby was made Barbados's first royal governor.  Suddenly, Barbadians were faced with the first real imposition to their self-government in well over a decade, and the conflict frustrated both Willoughby and the colonists.  Meanwhile, an illegal slave deal with the Spanish ultimately gives Barbados the right to sell slaves to other countries.
