Guyana's American expat community

It should be noted Guyana has a large American expatriate population compared to most countries around the world. I got this info to back my claim from the 51st state article on the move by some American expats to have the United States annex Guyana and bring forth the process of statehood.

<< There is an organization dedicated to the integration of Guyana with the United States, GuyanaUSA. Their claim is based on the idea that Guyana has strong connections with the United States in terms of people (100,000 people have joint Guyanese-American citizenship and 350,000 Guyanese live in U.S., half as many as remain in Guyana). It is the only South American country with English as its official language. >> + 71.102.53.48 (talk) 07:08, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

No - you've misunderstood that. Guyana does not have a large American expatriate population - it's the other way round - there are many Guyanese "expats" living in the US, and of course many of the Guyanese who moved to US have children born in the US. English is the official language because Guyana used to be British Guiana. Camillus (talk) 22:13, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
