Notes:

  1. ^ a b c d e f g the Bahamas, Bermuda, Guyana, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, Suriname, and the Turks and Caicos Islands, while not Caribbean countries, have also been included within the scope of this project.
  2. ^ a b c d e The Bahamas, Bermuda, Guyana, Suriname, and the Turks and Caicos Islands are members of CARICOM
  3. ^ a b The Netherlands Antilles dissolved on October 10, 2010.
  4. ^ Saint Pierre and Miquelon is a North Atlantic island which is an overseas territory of France and has common interests with Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Saint Barthélemy.
