A Colônia da Coroa da Ilha de Malta e suas Dependências (comumente conhecida como Colônia da Coroa de Malta ou simplesmente Malta) foi a colônia britânica nas ilhas maltesas, hoje a moderna República de Malta.
The Crown Colony of Malta was self-governing in 1921–1933, 1947–1958, and 1962–1964. During World War II British forces in Malta were heavily attacked by Italian and German air power, but the British held firm.
The islands parted ways in a decisive and permanent manner in 1799, when Malta became a British Crown colony. British colonial rule over Malta lasted 165 years. For an additional 10 years, Malta retained the British monarch as its independent head of state.
A Crown colony or royal colony was a colony governed by England, and then Great Britain or the United Kingdom within the English and later British Empire. There was usually a governor to represent the Crown, appointed by the British monarch on the advice of the UK Government, with or without the assistance of a local council.
The Crown Colony of the Island of Malta and its Dependencies was the British colony in the Maltese islands, today the modern Republic of Malta. It was established when the Malta Protectorate was transformed into a British Crown colony in 1813, and this was confirmed by the Treaty of Paris in 1814.
