This is an unused geography tag, for a former geo-political entity. Since the Netherlands Antilles no longer exist as such, propose deleting this template. Any future articles should be tagged with geo stub tags for the current appropriate country. Dawynn (talk) 11:39, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I have no position on retaining or keeping, but the statement above is incorrect. The Netherlands Antilles dissolved into 2 "landen", translated "countries" (Curacao and Sint Maarten), while three other islands became part of the Netherlands proper. These three (Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba) are referred to together as BES Islands or "Caribbean Netherlands" (e.g. on stamps, but also [www.rcn.nl rijksdienst Caribisch Nederland] etc)...
