Puerto Rico is often referred to as ''Borinquen'' or ''Borikén'', indigenous names, as well as ''Isla del Encanto'', and ''Perla del Caribe''. Puerto Ricans refer to themselves as ''Puertorriqueños'' or ''Boricuas''. Boricua is used as a term of endearment and cultural affirmation. Before the Spaniards discovered Puerto Rico, it was populated by [[Taíno]] Indians. The Taínos were a peaceful, gentle nation. They welcomed the conquistadores and shared their homes and food and gave the Spaniards many gifts. Unfortunately, the Spaniards abused their hospitality and started sodomizing their indigenous friends.
