About us

This website was created and inspired by conversations I had with a friend.

We would often talk to each other about Malta, and every piece of information we knew about it, the Maltese language, the island's history, and its culture.

Both of us were 3rd generation descendants of Maltese migrants, living in Australia. Because of this, my friend and I, didn't really know a whole lot about Malta.

On top of this, I found it frustrating to find information on Malta. A lot of it was:

• Scattered across the internet.
• In books that were hard to find within Australia.

Frustrated by the lack of a centralised source of information, I had an idea to create a website that combined original articles and web resources about Malta.

Taking inspiration from Grazio Falzon's aboutmalta.com, on the 1st of May 2021, I bit the bullet, and created the Maltese Archipelago Information website.

I distributed the website source code on github, so my friend and I, and members of the public, can contribute to the website.

I also made the website under the CREATIVE COMMONS 0 LICENCE. This means that ALL ORIGINAL ARTICLES ARE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN , and the information written, can be freely used by members of the public.

I hope that this website proves useful to all who are interested in the island nation of Malta.

Grazzi u Alla jbierek! :)
