International unions

  • In the  European Union is only the European part of the Netherlands. The Caribbean islands belong to the  Overseas countries and territories. Yet all Dutch citizens are EU citizens. At European elections  Kieskring 20 (Bonaire) does have polling stations, while Aruba, Curacao and Sint Maarten need to vote by mail as citizens abroad.
  • In the  Benelux Unie is the country of the Nederlands. Aruba, Curacao and Sint Maarten are "other constituent parts of the Kingdom of the Netherlands".
  • The  Dutch Language Union is currently "extended" to the entire country of the Netherlands. The application of the Language Union Treaty is currently not "extended" to Aruba, Curacao and Sint Maarten, even though there are collaborations.

Footnotes

  1. Each of the four countries has a place=country as label.
  2. Absent of a place=* of the Kingdom, the place=country of the country of the Netherlands does carry the ISO 3166 codes of the Kingdom. (This thus does not apply to the type=boundary, otherwise ambiguity would be created regarding the boundaries of the ISO 3166 codes.)
