The map of Sint Maarten | Dutch Caribbean


Postcard
“The term Dutch Caribbean refers to all of the islands of the Kingdom of the Netherlands that are located in the Caribbean, regardless of their legal status in Dutch law” (thank you Wikipedia).

The legal status of St Maarten is a “constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands”. A country within a country, sort of.

Stamp
A Lesser Nighthawk. The stamp is part of a set of 12 bird stamps, issued 2015.
