[GENERAL OVERVIEW]
The Kingdom of the Netherlands was a sovereign state in Western Europe and and constitutional monarchy with territory in western Europe and in the Caribbean. The Kingdom is celebrating its 200 years in a series of festive occasions spanning from 2013 to 2015, the actual year of the anniversary.
The four parts of the Kingdom – Aruba, Curaçao, the Netherlands, and Sint Maarten – are separate countries (landen in Dutch) and participate on a basis of equality as partners in the Kingdom.[10] In practice, however, most of the Kingdom affairs are administered by the Netherlands – which comprises roughly 98% of the Kingdom's land area and population – on behalf of the entire Kingdom. Consequently, the countries of Aruba, Curaçao, and Sint Maarten are dependent on the Netherlands.
