Wikipedia, Mar. 5, 2008 (British Virgin Islands (BVI); British overseas territory; technically the name of the territory is simply the "Virgin Islands", but in practice since 1917 they have been almost universally referred to as the "British Virgin Islands" to distinguish the islands from the American Territory; British Virgin Islands were administered variously as part of the British Leeward Islands or with St. Kitts and Nevis, with an administrator representing the British Government on the Islands; separate colony status was gained for the Islands in 1960 and the islands became autonomous in 1967)
