The southern Dutch part comprises [[https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Sint_Maarten|Sint Maarten]] and is one of [[https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​Kingdom_of_the_Netherlands#​Constituent_countries|four constituent countries]] that form the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Even though the island is an overseas possession of two [[https://​en.wikipedia.org/​wiki/​European_Union|European Union]] member states, only the French part of the island is part of the EU."
