Grenada

An island in the Lesser Antilles approximately the size of a regulation tennis court, Grenada is a former British colony that only wishes it were as historically irrelevant as Antigua and Barbuda. No such luck. In 1983, Grenada was the site of a communist military coup, giving the island the dubious distinction of being the smallest country to ever make Ronald Reagan nervous. Of course, he sorted them out right quick, proving once and for all that the United States does, in fact, have a stronger military than a nation a little more than two-thirds the size of Pomona, California.

"Hail Satan!"
