KEWR-É™ss-oh, -â  ow, -â  OH, -â  OW; Dutch: [kyraË ËˆsÊŒu, kur-]
(listen); Papiamento: Kòrsou, [ˈkÉ"rsÉ"u̯]) is a Lesser Antilles
island country in the southern Caribbean Sea and the Dutch Caribbean
region, about 65 km (40 mi) north of the Venezuelan coast. It is a
constituent country (Dutch: land) of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
Together with Aruba and Bonaire it forms the ABC islands.
Collectively, Curaçao, Aruba and other Dutch islands in the Caribbean
are often called the Dutch Caribbean.The country was formerly part of
the Curaçao and Dependencies colony from 1815 to 1954 and later the
Netherlands Antilles from 1954 to 2010, as "Island Territory of
Curaçao" (Dutch: Eilandgebied Curaçao, Papiamento: Teritorio Insular
di Kòrsou) and is now formally called the Country of Curaçao (Dutch:
Land Curaçao, Papiamento: Pais Kòrsou). It includes the main island
of Curaçao and the much smaller, uninhabited island of Klein Curaçao
("Little Curaçao"). Curaçao has a population of 158,665 (January
2019 est.) and an area of 444 km2 (171 sq mi); its capital is
Willemstad.One explanation is that Curaçao was the name by which the
indigenous peoples of the island identified themselves, their autonym.
Early Spanish accounts support this theory, as they refer to the
indigenous peoples as Indios Curaçaos. Curaçao Biography, NetWorth, Height, Age, Weight, Family, Married, Son, Daughter
