The British ran the trans Atlantic slavery circuit and Jamaica was their main base before hitting North America. (which is why you see its mostly african people with an english esque accent)

So the plantation CEOs there would have essentially the 1st pick at the strongest workers. That's why despite being an impoverished nation poor training institutes they dominate sprinting, because that's the most basic thing you can be elite at without modern anemities.
