Malta's Military History

My cultural research project for Malta is focused on the island's military history and its influences on their culture. The island's strategic importance and history of occupation has contributed to a very rich and colorful history dating back several hundred years. While the Maltese have never been an aggressive military force, the defenses on the island were an active focus for a prolonged period of time.

While on the island, I intend to visit several of the museums and sites of importance. Hopefully these visits will provide a considerable insight into military development and history. In addition, I intend to perform a few in-person interviews to get a better feel for how much of an effect, if any, the island's unique history has had on her modern citizens.
