Is an archipelagic state in the southern Caribbean, lying northeast of the South American country of Venezuela and south of Grenada in the Lesser Antilles. It shares maritime boundaries with other nations including Barbados to the northeast, Guyana to the southeast, and Venezuela to the south and west.
The country covers an area of 5,128 square kilometres (1,980 sq mi)[6] and consists of two main islands, Trinidad and Tobago, and numerous smaller landforms. Trinidad is the larger and more populous of the main islands; Tobago is much smaller, comprising about 6% of the total area and 4% of the entire population which is estimated at 1.3 million (2005). The nation lies outside the hurricane belt.
Trinidad and Tobago was a Spanish colony from the times of Christopher Columbus to 1802, when it was ceded to Britain. The country obtained independence in 1962. Unlike most of the English-speaking Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago's economy is primarily industrial, with an emphasis on petroleum and petrochemicals. Trinidad and Tobago has a sound macroeconomic framework and a long tradition of institutional stability. It scores relatively well in many of the 10 economic freedoms, and its economy has grown at an average rate of close to 7 percent over the past five years. The government has tried to diversify the economic base, and the country has evolved into a key financial center in the Caribbean region.

Meaning country name:
Christopher Columbus encountered the island of Trinidad on July 31, 1498 and named it after the Holy Trinity. Columbus reported seeing Tobago, which he named Bella Forma, but did not land on the island. The name Tobago probably derivesfrom the tobacco grown and smoked by the natives.
"Kairi" or "Iere" (old Amerindian name for Trinidad): Usually translated as The Land of the Hummingbird, although others have reported that it simply meant island.
Description Flag:
The flag of Trinidad and Tobago was adopted upon independence in 1962. The red stands for 'people's generosity and sunlight', white for 'equality and the sea' and black for 'tenacity and vocation of unity'.
In blazons, the flag is Gules, a bend Sable fimbriated Argent.
Coat of arms:
The Coat of Arms of Trinidad and Tobago was designed by a committee formed in 1962 to select the symbols that would be representative of the people of Trinidad and Tobago. The committee included noted artist Carlisle Chang and the late designer George Bailey. The shield has the same colours (black, red, and white) of the nation's flag and carry the same meaning. The gold ships represent the Santa Maria, Nina, and Pinta: the three ships Christopher Columbus used on his journey to the "New World." The two birds on the shield are hummingbirds. Trinidad is sometimes referred to as the "Land of the Hummingbird" because more than sixteen different species of hummingbird have been recorded on the island. The two larger birds are the Scarlet Ibis (left) and the Cocrico (right), the national birds of Trinidad and Tobago. Below these birds is our nation's motto, "Together We Aspire, Together We Achieve."
Motto:
"Together we aspire, together we achieve"
National Anthem: Forged from the Love of Liberty
Forged from the love of liberty
In the fires of hope and prayer
With boundless faith in our destiny
We solemnly declare:
Side by side we stand
Islands of the blue Caribbean sea,
This our native land
We pledge our lives to thee.
Here every creed and race finds an equal place,
And may God bless our nation
Here every creed and race finds an equal place,
And may God bless our nation.

Geschiedenis en naamgeving[bewerken]
Oorspronkelijk bestond dit gebied uit estuariumduinen. Deze duinen waren deel van een zogenaamde haakwal (een rij duinen die loodrecht op de kust stonden). In deze duinen woonden oorspronkelijk vissers in hutten. Deze 'staelvissers' visten op zalm in de Maas met netten en fuiken, bevestigd aan staken of 'staelen', de naam "Staelduinse Bos" zou hier aan ontleend zijn.
Het Staelduinse Bos is na 1850 aangeplant in opdracht van de toenmalige eigenaar, Jonkheer van Rijckevorsel. Van zijn landgoed is vrijwel niets meer over anders dan wat resten.
Vleermuizen[bewerken]
In het Staelduinse Bos ligt een oud bunkercomplex dat deel was van Festung Hoek van Holland, onderdeel van de Atlantikwall. Tevens zijn hier en daar betonnen platen te zien. Dit zijn overblijfselen van munitieloodsen. Het bunkercomplex heeft door de dikke muren een vrij constante luchtvochtigheidsgraad en temperatuur. Het is daardoor een populaire woonplaats voor vleermuizen geworden. Dit gebied van het Staelduinse Bos is dan ook een vleermuisreservaat. In dit reservaat overwinteren een aantal soorten in winterslaap. Tevens plant ten minste een soort zich hier voort. Er zijn verschillende meningen over het aantal soorten dat voorkomt maar het zijn er waarschijnlijk 5 of 6. In ieder geval komen grootoorvleermuizen (die de bunkers als kraamkamer gebruiken), meervleermuizen en watervleermuizen voor.

History and naming [ edit ]
Originally, this area of estuary dunes . These dunes were part of a so-called haakwal (a row of dunes that were perpendicular to the coast). In these dunes originally fishermen lived in huts. This 'stael fishers' fished for salmon in the Meuse with nets and traps, attached to stakes or "Staelen" the name "Staelduinse Forest" would be derived from it here.
The Staelduinse Forest after 1850 planted commissioned by the then owner, Esquire of Rijckevorsel. Of his estate is almost nothing about other than what remains.
Bats [ Edit ]
In Staelduinse Forest lies an old bunker complex that part of Festung Hoek van Holland, was part of Atlantic . Are concrete slabs can also be seen here and there. These are remnants of ammunition sheds . The bunker complex is through the thick walls a fairly constant humidity and temperature . This makes it a popular residence for bats become. This area of the Staelduinse Forest is also a bat sanctuary. This reserve some species overwinter in hibernation . Also, at least one plant species here forth. There are different opinions on the number of species but there are probably 5 or 6. In any case, Plecotus (using the bunkers as a nursery), more bats and Daubenton's bats for.
