“TURKS + CAICOS ISLANDS”

*AKA* –>

“THE BAHAMA ARCHIPELAGO”

.

(named after the the original native ‘lucayan people’)

.

(an island group comprising the Commonwealth of The Bahamas and the British Overseas Territory of the “turks + caicos islands”)

(the archipelago is in the western North Atlantic Ocean, north of the Antilles, and east and southeast of ‘florida’)

(‘William Keegan’ writes that the ‘bahama archipelago’ includes the territories of both the ‘Commonwealth of The Bahamas’ and the ‘Turks and Caicos Islands’, adding: “Modern political considerations aside, the islands form a single archipelago with common geological, ecological, and cultural roots”)

(because the 2 nations of the “Lucayan Archipelago” do not border the “Caribbean Sea”, they are part of the ‘West Indies’ but not the ‘Caribbean’)

.

(they are, however, often grouped with the ‘caribbean nations’ for convenience)
