George Cadle Price
George Price led the People's United Party, founded in 1950 after the currency devaluation of 1949, and was the dominant figure of nationalism in British Honduras. He headed the government from 1961, became premier at self-government in 1964 and led the country, renamed Belize in 1973, to independence in 1981 as its first prime minister. He resisted Guatemala's claim to the territory and is honoured as the father of the nation.
