Since the identification of Zika virus (ZIKV) in Brazil in May 2015, the virus has spread throughout the Americas. However, ZIKV burden in the general population in affected countries remains unknown. Methods. We conducted a general population survey in the different communities of French Guiana through individual inter- views and serologic survey during June–October 2017. All serum samples were tested for anti-ZIKV immunoglobulin G antibodies using a recombinant antigen-based SGERPAxMap microsphere immunoassay, and some of them were further evaluated through anti-ZIKV microneutralization tests.

French Reaction to the Menace from Cabanos and Bonis Within the Litigious Territory Between Brazil and French Guiana (1836-1841)1
125 French reaction to the menace from Cabanos and Bonis within the litigious territory between Brazil and French Guiana (1836-1841)1 Reação francesa às ameaças de Cabanos e Bonis no território litigioso do Amapá (1836-1841) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/2236-463320161408 Débora Bendocchi Alves Instituto de História Ibérica e Latinoamericana (IHILA) Faculdade de História da Universidade de Colônia, Colônia, Alemanha [email protected] Abstract: This article will analyze an historical episode that occurred between 1836 and 1841 during the French occupation of the disputed territory located between Brazil and French Guiana. I intend to consider two regional factors that influenced the decision of both the Cayenne Government and the metropolitan government to build military forts in the region. Such factors are the Cabanagem and the attempts of black Bonis to settle in Lower Oiapoque. I will go on to show that the French withdrawal from Amapá Lake in 1840, but not from the post on the right bank of the Oiapoque River, was due not only to international and diplomatic factors but also had regional causes. Notwithstanding the French government's interests in expanding the territory of its South American colony, I want to draw attention to the threats - real or fictitious - of Cabanos, from Brazil, and black Bonis, from Dutch Guiana. 1 This article forms part of a research project funded by Gerda Henkel Foundation (Germany) about the region of the French-Brazilian Boarding between 1840-1900. It is a revised and extended version of my participation at the ANPUH 2015 XXVIII National History Symposium, held in Florianópolis.

Holland, 2016, 2020 All Rights Reserved 2 Religion in French Guiana Country Overview French Guiana is an overseas department of France located on the Atlantic coast of South America, bordered by Brazil to the east and south, and by Suriname to the west. It is a tropical land, whose capital, Cayenne, is only five degrees north of the Equator. Its 83,534 km² (32,253 sq mi) of land is home to an estimated 259,865 people (2015), most of whom are of African descent. The territory has a very low population density of less than three inhabitants per km², with almost half of its population living in the urban area of Cayenne: 61,268 inhabitants in the commune and 118,346 inhabitants in the metro area (2017 estimate), which includes the communes of Cayenne, Matoury, and Remire-Montjoly. The capital is located on the banks of the estuary of the Cayenne River. Though sharing cultural affinities with the French-speaking territories of the Caribbean, French Guiana is not considered to be part of that geographic region, because the Caribbean Sea is actually located several hundred kilometers to the west, beyond the arc of the Lesser Antilles.

However, the boundaries of what people have defined as the Caribbean today has changed. Historically, the boundaries of the Caribbean were at their greatest extent during the 17th and 18th centuries and as such French Guiana was situated on the edge and during some periods maybe thought to be part of the Caribbean proper.
