The island of '''St. Martin''' is split between the French [[Guadeloupe]] and the Dutch [[Netherlands Antilles]]. It is one of the smallest land masses divided between two countries. The northern, French side of the island is known as Saint-Martin, and is 20 square miles. The southern, Dutch side of the island is known as [[Sint Maarten]], and is 13 square miles. To avoid confusion between the three variations on the name, the two regions are commonly referred to as ''the French side'' and ''the Dutch side''. | The island of '''St. Martin''' is split between the French [[Guadeloupe]] and the Dutch [[Netherlands Antilles]].
