Back in October 2010, I wrote about how the world lost one country, but gained two new ones. The Netherlands Antilles ceased to exist, and Curaçao and Sint Maarten become semi-autonomous countries within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The other day I found this video by C.G.P. Grey, which summed up the make up of the Dutch Kingdom and does its bit to explain the difference between The Netherlands and Holland.

As the video clip summarises, there are six Caribbean islands, four countries, 12 provinces, of which there are 2 Hollands, one Kingdom. And they are all Dutch.

But someone forgot to tell the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade who still list the Netherlands Antilles as a country!
