Perhaps the most significant event of Zanzibars first year of independence was its union with Tanganyika. for it appears that this union has established the basis for a stable but dynamic economic and political development of the "isle of cloves." Under the terms of the union. patterned on the union between Britain and Northern Ireland. Zanzibar has retained its separate identity and has its own Parliament and Government. The powers of the Government of the United Republic. specifically reserved to it. cover foreign affairs. trade. security. immigration. and citizenship. The police of the two countries has already been integrated. and plans call for integration of the armies as well. On the first anniversary of their independence we congratulate President Karume and the people of Zanzibar on their wise choice in uniting with Tanganyika.
