The Island is the main setting of "A Tempest". The Island was formerly bequeathed to Caliban by Sycorax, his mother, but Prospero tricks Caliban into relinquishing control of the Island before the action of the play begins. At the end of the play, Prospero decides to stay on the Island with Caliban alone, instead of returning to Europe with his daughter and the noblemen.
