Before colonization, the island was mostly inhabited by the Taíno peoples, who arrived on the island from nearby Jamaica around 400 A.D. During famed explorer Christopher Columbus's fourth expedition, he landed on the island in 1502 and claimed the land for Spain, naming the territory ''San Martin. ''

In 1699, the English (later British) took over the territory from the Spanish in a brief Caribbean war and renamed the island to simply Martin, later referred to as Martan in the mid-18th century for unknown reasons. The island became an independent Commonwealth country on 13 July 1971.

Martan is a Commonwealth nation, with Queen Elizabeth as their monarch and head of state. The current Governor-General of Martan is Leonard Harrison, and the current Prime Minister of Martan is Quincy Davidson, Jr.. The population is about 568,000.
