The Netherlands Antilles ( Dutch: Nederlandse Antillen), previously known as the Netherlands West Indies, are part of the Lesser Antilles and consist of two groups of islands in the Caribbean Sea that form an autonomous part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. (None of the other Antilles have this term in their name.) The islands' economy is dependent mostly on tourism and oil, though a large amount of money is made in illegal drug trafficking.
