I'm fascinated by all the Caribbean Islands. They have such deep history. We have been to Aruba, Curacao, and St. Maarten, but that was 20 to 30 years ago. I have never heard of Bonaire until I came across this video. Are you focusing just on Dutch territories, or all the islands in the Caribbean? There are thousands of them....some uninhabited, some private, and some large and small. We have also been to St. Thomas and St John Islands. I have tried to find more reading material about the Caribbean and the very long documented history, but it's not easy to find. I don't know how they kept records so long ago. My guess would be that the magistrate or governing body on the island would have records for larger islands and possibly better records in the countries that ruled them at various times. I seem to hear quite a bit about Antigua more than others. I did read that it was a British colony as early as the 15th century but acquired from the Spanish....and other European Countries. So much interesting history beyond the tales of Blackbeard or Bluebeard and Pirates that is barely mentioned in tourist information.
This video is part of a Dutch series, so that's what I'll be covering here. I also covered the British and French territories, check out the playlist on my channel. I know there are way more islands out there, their number is overwhelming. It fascinates me too, but I don't think I have the time to cover all of them.
Wow, what a beautiful surprise. I was born and raised on Bonaire and it's amazing to see a video about the history of the island ❤🏝 with FACTS btw 😉. Job well done 👏. Hope you make more vids about the islands.
I’ve been to Bonaire, it’s a nice little island country. Though it was istablished that Bonaire is not directly part of the Netherlands, but still part of the Netherlands was kinda confusing. Thanks for clearing this up. And the salt mines are insane
