The Netherlands Antilles (Dutch:
Nederlandse Antillen
,
Papiamento: Antia Hulandes
),
previously known as the Netherlands West Indies or Dutch
Antilles/West Indies, consists of two
groups of islands that form part of the
Lesser Antilles in the
Caribbean Sea. The islands are
Curaçao and
Bonaire, which are just off the
Venezuelan coast and belong to the
Leeward Antilles; and
Sint Eustatius,
Saba
and
Sint Maarten, which are located southeast of the
Virgin Islands and are part of the
Leeward Islands. These
Dutch islands form an autonomous part of the
Kingdom of the Netherlands. The islands' economy depends mostly
upon
tourism, international financial services,
shipping, and
petroleum.
The Netherlands Antilles are scheduled to be dissolved as a unified political entity on October 10, 2010, so that the five constituent islands will attain new constitutional statuses within the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
