It is a densely populated country located in Western Europe with three island territories in the Caribbean.designated Bonaire , Sint Eustatius and Saba within ISO ISO 3166-1 . The European part of the Netherlands borders Germany to the east , Belgium to the south , and the North Sea to the northwest , sharing maritime borders with Belgium , the United Kingdom , and Germany .   The four largest cities in the Netherlands are Amsterdam , Rotterdam , The Hague and Utrecht ( collectively known as G4 ) . Amsterdam is the country 's capital , while The Hague holds the Dutch seat of parliament and government . The port of Rotterdam is the world 's largest port outside East-Asia , and the largest port in Europe . The name Holland is used informally to refer to the whole of the country of the Netherlands.Formally ` Holland ' refers only to two of the country 's twelve provinces : North Holland and South Holland .   `` Netherlands '' literally means `` lower countries '' , influenced by its low land and flat geography , with only about 50 % of its land exceeding one metre above sea level . Most of the areas below sea level are artificial . Since the late 16th century , large areas ( polders ) have been reclaimed from the sea and lakes , amounting to nearly 17 % of the country 's current land mass . With a population density of 412 people per km2 -- 507 ( January 2017 ) if water is excluded -- the Netherlands is classified as a very densely populated country . Only Bangladesh , South Korea , and Taiwan have both a larger population and higher population density . Nevertheless , the Netherlands is the world 's second-largest exporter of food and agricultural products , after the United States . This is partly due to the fertility of the soil and the mild climate . The Netherlands was the third country in the world to have an elected parliament , and since 1848 it has been governed as a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy , organised as a unitary state . The Netherlands has a long history of social tolerance and is generally regarded as a liberal country , having legalised abortion , prostitution and euthanasia , while maintaining a progressive drugs policy . In 2001 , it became the world 's first country to legalise same-sex marriage .   The Netherlands is a founding member of the EU , Eurozone , G-10 , NATO , OECD and WTO ; as well as being a part of the Schengen Area and the trilateral Benelux Union . The country is host to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and five international courts : the Permanent Court of Arbitration , the International Court of Justice , the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia , the International Criminal Court and the Special Tribunal for Lebanon . The first four are situated in The Hague , as is the EU 's criminal intelligence agency Europol and judicial co-operation agency Eurojust . This has led to the city being dubbed `` the world 's legal capital . '' The country also ranks second highest in the world 's 2016 Press Freedom Index , as published by Reporters Without Borders .   The Netherlands has a market-based mixed economy , ranking 17th of 177 countries according to the Index of Economic Freedom . It had the thirteenth-highest per capita income in the world in 2013 according to the International Monetary Fund .

neg: Road transport in the Netherlands With 139,000 km of public roads , the Netherlands has one of the most dense road networks in the world -- much denser than Germany and France , but still not as dense as Belgium . In 2013 , 5,191 km were national roads , 7,778 km were provincial roads , and 125,230 km were municipality and other roads .  Dutch roads include 3,530 km of motorways and expressways , and with a motorway density of 64 kilometres per 1,000 km2 , the country also has one of the densest motorway networks in the world . In Dutch a motorway is called `` autosnelweg '' or simply `` snelweg '' ; other expressways are just called `` autoweg '' ( literally : `` car road '' ) . According to a 2004 estimate , some 12,500 km of road remain as yet unpaved .   Mobility on Dutch roads has grown continuously since the 1950s and now exceeds 200 billion km travelled per year . With a population of 16.8 million people , this comes down to an average of 32 km per person per day . Around half of all trips in the Netherlands are made by car , making up three quarters of all passenger kilometres travelled , meaning that while Dutch roads are numerous , they are also used with one of the highest intensities of any road network . Car ownership in the Netherlands is high but not exceptional , and slightly lower than in surrounding countries . Goods vehicles make up 20 % of total traffic , and road transport accounts for 40 % of all freight movements registered , including overseas shipping .   The busiest Dutch motorway is the A13 between The Hague and Rotterdam , with a traffic volume of 140,000 motor vehicles per day . The province of Utrecht in the centre of the country however , has the busiest motorways on average ( almost 100,000 vehicles a day ) , with major motorways A1 , A2 , A12 , A27 and A28 running through it . The busiest 4-lane motorway in the Netherlands is the A10 in the Coen Tunnel in Amsterdam with 110.000 vehicles per day . The widest Dutch motorway is the A15/A16 just south of Rotterdam with 16 lanes in a 4 +4 +4 +4 setup .

neg: Kingdom of Holland The Kingdom of Holland ( Koninkrijk Holland , Royaume de Hollande ) was set up by Napoléon Bonaparte as a puppet kingdom for his third brother , Louis Bonaparte , in order to better control the Netherlands .

In 1807 Prussian East Frisia and Jever were added to the kingdom but in 1809 , after a British invasion , Holland had to give over all territories south of the river Rhine to France .   Also in 1809 , Dutch forces fighting on the French side participated in defeating the anti-Bonapartist German rebellion led by Ferdinand von Schill , at the Battle of Stralsund .   King Louis did not perform to Napoleon 's expectations -- he tried to serve Dutch interests instead of his brother 's -- and the kingdom was dissolved in 1810 after which the Netherlands were annexed by France until 1813 . The Kingdom of Holland covered the area of the present-day Netherlands , with the exception of Limburg , and parts of Zeeland , which were French territory , and with the addition of East Frisia , in present-day Germany .   It was the first formal monarchy in the Netherlands since 1581 .

neg: Archipelagic state An archipelagic state is any internationally recognized state or country that comprises a series of islands that form an archipelago . The term is defined by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea in order to define what borders such states should be allowed to claim .   In various conferences , Fiji , Indonesia , Papua New Guinea , the Bahamas , and the Philippines are the five sovereign states that obtained approval in the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea signed in Montego Bay , Jamaica on December 10 , 1982 and qualified as archipelagic states .   Archipelagic states are states that are composed of groups of islands forming a state as a single unit , with the islands and the waters within the baselines as internal waters . Under this concept ( `` archipelagic doctrine '' ) , an archipelago shall be regarded as a single unit , so that the waters around , between , and connecting the islands of the archipelago , irrespective of their breadth and dimensions , form part of the internal waters of the state , and are subject to its exclusive sovereignty .   The approval of the United Nations for the five sovereign states as archipelagic states respect existing agreements with other countries and shall recognize traditional fishing rights and other legitimate activities of the immediately adjacent neighboring countries in certain areas falling within archipelagic waters . The terms and conditions for the exercise of such rights and activities , including the nature , the extent and the areas to which they apply , shall , at the request of any of the countries concerned , be regulated by bilateral agreements between them . Such rights shall not be transferred to or shared with third countries or their nationals .

neg: Netherlands in World War II The direct involvement of the Netherlands in World War II began with its invasion by Nazi Germany on 10 May 1940 . The Netherlands had proclaimed neutrality when war broke out in September 1939 , just as it had in World War I , but Adolf Hitler ordered it to be invaded anyway . On 15 May 1940 , one day after the bombing of Rotterdam , the Dutch forces surrendered . The Dutch government and the royal family escaped and went into exile in London .   Following the defeat , the Netherlands was placed under German occupation , which endured in some areas until the German surrender in May 1945 . Active resistance was carried out by a small minority , which grew in the course of the occupation . The occupiers deported the majority of the country 's Jews to Nazi concentration camps , with the cooperation of much of the Dutch police and civil service .   Due to the high variation in the survival rate of Jewish inhabitants amongst local regions in the Netherlands , scholars have questioned the validity of a single explanation at the national level . Nonetheless , and also due to the well organized population registers comparing to other countries , about 70 % of the country 's Jewish population were killed during the conflict ; a much higher percentage than comparable countries , like Belgium and France . However , the city of Amsterdam organized the only industrial action in protest to the persecution of their Jewish fellow citizens ever in all of the Nazi occupied areas .   Most of the south of the country was liberated in the second half of 1944 . The rest , especially the west and north of the country still under occupation , suffered from a famine at the end of 1944 , known as the `` Hunger Winter '' . On 5 May 1945 , the whole country was finally liberated by the total surrender of all German forces .

neg: Danish Realm The term Danish Realm ( Det Danske Rige ) refers to the relationship between Denmark proper , the Faroe Islands and Greenland -- three countries constituting the Kingdom of Denmark .   The legal nature of the Kingdom of Denmark is fundamentally one of a unitary sovereign state . The Faroe Islands and Greenland have been part of the Crown of Denmark since 1397 ( de jure ) when the Kalmar Union was ratified , and part of the Kingdom of Denmark since 1814 ( de facto ) . However , due to their separate historical and cultural identities , these parts of the Realm now have an extensive type of self-government and have assumed legislative and administrative responsibility in a substantial number of fields .   Legal matters in The Danish Realm are subject to the Danish Constitution . Beginning in 1953 , state law issues within The Danish Realm has been governed by The Unity of the Realm ( Rigsenheden ) . A less formal name for The Unity of the Realm is `` the commonwealth of the Realm '' . In 1978 , The Unity of The Realm was for the first time unofficially referred to as rigsfællesskabet . The name caught on and since the 1990s , both The Unity of The Realm and The Danish Realm itself has increasingly been referred to as simply rigsfællesskabet ( ríkisfelagsskapurin naalagaaffeqatigiit ) in daily parlance .   The Danish Constitution stipulates that the foreign and security interests for all parts of the Danish Realm are the responsibility of the Danish government . The Faroes received home rule in 1948 and Greenland did so in 1979 . In 2005 , the Faroes received a self-government arrangement , and in 2009 Greenland received `` self rule '' , thus leaving the Danish government with virtually no influence over Greenlandic internal affairs .

neg: Principality of Nassau-Orange-Fulda Nassau-Orange-Fulda was a short-lived principality of the Holy Roman Empire , which was created for the son and heir of the Prince of Orange and Prince of Orange-Nassau and existed only from 1803 to 1806 .   In 1795 the William V , Prince of Orange-Nassau , lost all his possessions in the Low Countries because of the rise of the Batavian Republic , a client state of the French Republic .   On May 23 , 1802 , France and Prussia concluded a treaty in which Fulda and some other areas were promised to the Prince of Orange as compensation for the loss of his domains in the Low Countries . Willem V refused at first , but later accepted the offer in favour for his son Prince Willem Frederik ( later King William I of the Netherlands ) to become the ruler of the new formed principality . On October 22 , Prussian troops occupied the Diocese of Fulda to secure the interests of the prince and on 6 December Prince Willem Frederik held his entry in Fulda . The Reichsdeputationshauptschluss resolution on 25 February 1803 , legalized the redistribution of the territories . According to section 12 of this resolution the following areas were transferred to the rule of the new Prince of Nassau-Orange-Fulda :   Diocese of Fulda  Corvey Abbey  Free Imperial City of Dortmund  Weingarten Abbey and the priorate Hofen  Provostry of St. Gerold ( in Vorarlberg , 1804 sold to Austria )  Deanery of Bandern ( in Liechtenstein , 1804 sold to Austria )  Dietkirchen Abbey ( Nassau )   The areas were reorganised into the four divisions `` Principality of Fulda '' , `` Principality of Corvey '' , `` County of Dortmund '' and `` Lordship of Weingarten '' . The arms of the principality included the coat of arms of these areas ( with the center-shield the arms of the Prince of Orange-Nassau ) .   With the death of his father William V on 9 April 1806 , Prince Willem Frederik also inherited all the Nassau core territories . However , on 12 July 1806 he lost the Lordship of Weingarten and the Nassau territories because of the formation of the Confederation of the Rhine . By the German Mediatisation , the Lordship of Weingarten was incorporated into the Kingdom of Württemberg and the Nassau core territories into the Grand Duchy of Berg and the Duchy of Nassau .   After the military defeat of Prussia by France , the Prince of Orange subsequently lost his remaining possessions ( including the mediated ones ) .

neg: Belgium Belgium ( -LSB- ˈbɛldʒəm -RSB- België -LSB- ˈbɛlɣijə -RSB- ; Belgique -LSB- bɛlʒik -RSB- ; Belgien -LSB- ˈbɛlɡi̯ən -RSB- ) , officially the Kingdom of Belgium , is a sovereign state in Western Europe bordered by France , the Netherlands , Germany , Luxembourg , and the North Sea . It is a small , densely populated country which covers an area of 30528 km2 and has a population of about 11 million people . Straddling the cultural boundary between Germanic and Latin Europe , Belgium is home to two main linguistic groups : the Dutch-speaking , mostly Flemish community , which constitutes about 59 % of the population , and the French-speaking , mostly Walloon population , which comprises 41 % of all Belgians . Additionally , there is a small group of German-speakers who live in the East Cantons located around the High Fens area , and bordering Germany .   Historically , Belgium , the Netherlands and Luxembourg ( along with parts of Northern France and Western Germany ) were known as the Low Countries ; it once covered a somewhat larger area than the current Benelux group of states . The region was called Belgica in Latin , after the Roman province of Gallia Belgica . From the end of the Middle Ages until the 17th century , the area of Belgium was a prosperous and cosmopolitan centre of commerce and culture . From the 16th century until the Belgian Revolution in 1830 , when Belgium seceded from the Netherlands , the area of Belgium served as the battleground between many European powers , causing it to be dubbed the `` Battlefield of Europe , ''  a reputation strengthened by both world wars .   Today , Belgium is a federal constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of governance . It is divided into three regions and three communities , that exist next to each other . Its two largest regions are the Dutch-speaking region of Flanders in the north and the French-speaking southern region of Wallonia . The Brussels-Capital Region is an officially bilingual ( French and Dutch ) enclave within the Flemish Region .  A German-speaking Community exists in eastern Wallonia .  Belgium 's linguistic diversity and related political conflicts are reflected in its political history and complex system of governance , made up of six different governments .   Belgium participated in the Industrial Revolution  and , during the course of the 20th century , possessed a number of colonies in Africa . The second half of the 20th century was marked by rising tensions between the Dutch-speaking and the French-speaking citizens fueled by differences in language and culture and the unequal economic development of Flanders and Wallonia . This continuing antagonism has led to several far-reaching reforms , resulting in a transition from a unitary to a federal arrangement during the period from 1970 to 1993 . Despite the reforms , tensions between the groups have remained , if not increased ; there is significant separatism particularly among the Flemish ; controversial language laws exist such as the municipalities with language facilities ; and the formation of a coalition government took 18 months following the June 2010 federal election , a world record . Belgium is one of the six founding countries of the European Union and hosts the official seats of the European Commission , Council of the European Union , and European Council , as well as a seat of the European Parliament in the country 's capital , Brussels . Belgium is also a founding member of the Eurozone , NATO , OECD and WTO , and a part of the trilateral Benelux Union . Its capital , Brussels , hosts several of the EU 's official seats as well as the headquarters of many major international organizations such as NATO.Belgium is a member of , or affiliated to , many international organizations , including ACCT , AfDB , AsDB , Australia Group , Benelux , BIS , CCC , CE , CERN , EAPC , EBRD , EIB , EMU , ESA , EU , FAO , G-10 , IAEA , IBRD , ICAO , ICC , ICRM , IDA , IDB , IEA , IFAD , IFC , IFRCS , IHO , ILO , IMF , IMO , IMSO , Intelsat , Interpol , IOC , IOM , ISO , ITU , MONUC ( observers ) , NATO , NEA , NSG , OAS ( observer ) , OECD , OPCW , OSCE , PCA , UN , UNCTAD , UNECE , UNESCO , UNHCR , UNIDO , UNMIK , UNMOGIP , UNRWA , UNTSO , UPU , WADB ( non-regional ) , WEU , WHO , WIPO , WMO , WTrO , ZC . Belgium is also a part of the Schengen Area . Belgium is a developed country , with an advanced high-income economy and is categorized as `` very high '' in the Human Development Index .

neg: Norderland The Norderland was a historic territory , set on the northwestern edge of East Frisia immediately next to the Wadden Sea off North Germany , which embraced a wide area around the town of Norden .

Today , Norderland refers to the area containing the borough of Norden , the collective municipality of Hage , Großheide and Dornum .

neg: British Overseas Territories The 14 British Overseas Territories ( BOT ) are territories under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of the United Kingdom . They are the parts of the British Empire that have not been granted independence or have voted to remain British territories . These territories do not form part of the United Kingdom and , with the exception of Gibraltar , are not part of the European Union . Most of the inhabited territories are internally self-governing , with the UK retaining responsibility for defence and foreign relations . The rest are either uninhabited or have a transitory population of military or scientific personnel . They share the British monarch ( Elizabeth II ) as head of state .   The term `` British Overseas Territory '' was introduced by the British Overseas Territories Act 2002 , replacing the term British Dependent Territory , introduced by the British Nationality Act 1981 . Prior to 1 January 1983 , the territories were officially referred to as British Crown Colonies . With the exceptions of the British Antarctic Territory and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands ( which host only officials and research station staff ) and the British Indian Ocean Territory ( used as a military base ) , the Territories retain permanent civilian populations . Permanent residency for the 7,000 or so civilians living in the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia is limited to citizens of the Republic of Cyprus .   Collectively , the Territories encompass a population of about 250,000 people and a land area of about 667018 sqmi . The vast majority of this land area , 660000 sqmi , constitutes the almost uninhabited British Antarctic Territory , while the largest territory by population , Bermuda , accounts for almost a quarter of the total BOT population . At the other end of the scale , three territories have no civilian population ; the Antarctic territory , the British Indian Ocean Territory ( from which the Chagos Islanders were controversially removed ) and South Georgia . Pitcairn Islands , settled by the survivors of the Mutiny on the Bounty , is the smallest settled territory with 49 inhabitants , while the smallest by land area is Gibraltar on the southern tip of the Iberian peninsula . The United Kingdom participates in the Antarctic Treaty System and , as part of a mutual agreement , the British Antarctic Territory is recognised by four of the other sovereign nations making claims to Antarctic territory .   Although the Crown dependencies of Jersey , Guernsey and the Isle of Man are also under the sovereignty of the British monarch , they are in a different constitutional relationship with the United Kingdom . The British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies are themselves distinct from the Commonwealth realms , a group of 15 independent countries ( and the United Kingdom ) which each also have Elizabeth II as their reigning monarch , and from the Commonwealth of Nations , a voluntary association of 52 countries mostly with historic links to the British Empire ( which also includes all Commonwealth realms ) .   the Minister responsible for the Territories excluding the Falkland Islands , Gibraltar and the Sovereign Base Areas is Baroness Anelay , Minister of State for the Commonwealth and the UN . The other three territories are the responsibility of Sir Alan Duncan MP , Minister of State for Europe and the Americas .

neg: German Bight The German Bight ( Deutsche Bucht tyske bugt Duitse bocht Dútske bocht sometimes also the German Bay ) is the southeastern bight of the North Sea bounded by the Netherlands and Germany to the south , and Denmark and Germany to the east ( the Jutland peninsula ) . To the north and west it is limited by the Dogger Bank . The Bight contains the Frisian and Danish Islands . The Wadden Sea is approximately ten to twelve kilometres wide at the location of the German Bight . The Frisian islands and the nearby coastal areas are collectively known as Frisia . The southern portion of the bight is also known as the Heligoland Bight . Between 1949 and 1956 the BBC Sea Area Forecast ( Shipping Forecast ) used `` Heligoland '' as the designation for the area now referred to as German Bight .

neg: Frisian Islands The Frisian Islands , also known as the Wadden Islands or Wadden Sea Islands , form an archipelago at the eastern edge of the North Sea in northwestern Europe , stretching from the northwest of the Netherlands through Germany to the west of Denmark . The islands shield the mudflat region of the Wadden Sea ( large parts of which fall dry during low tide ) from the North Sea .   The Frisian Islands , along with the mainland coast in the German Bight , form the region of Frisia ( German and Dutch : Friesland ) , homeland of the Frisian people . Generally , the term Frisian Islands is used for the islands where Frisian is spoken and the population is ethnically Frisian . In contrast , the term Wadden Islands applies to the entire archipelago , including the Dutch speaking western islands of Texel and Vlieland in North Holland and Danish-speaking Danish Wadden Sea Islands further north off the west coast of Jutland .   Most of the Frisian Islands are environmentally protected areas , and an international wildlife nature reserve is being coordinated between the Netherlands , Germany and Denmark . Natural gas and oil drilling continue , however , and in the vicinity of the Ems , Weser and Elbe estuaries , and ship traffic causes tension between wildlife protection and economic values .

The pakad contains the melodic theme of the raga , on listening to the pakad a person who knows the raga is usually able to identify it . In many cases , the ragas contain the same swaras ( notes ) , then the pakad also contains information about gayaki or chalan ( the way the notes are to be ordered and played/sung ) . Usually , the pakad is formed from short convolutions of the arohana and avarohana , while in some cases it is quite different from them .

neg: Douglas Anne Munson Douglas Anne Munson ( February 17 , 1948 -- December 22 , 2003 ) was an attorney , teacher , and author of four critically acclaimed novels . She published three of those novels under the pseudonym of Mercedes Lambert .   Douglas Anne Munson was born in Crossville , Tennessee on February 17 , 1948 . She was named Douglas by her father in honor of his brother Douglas who died in World War II .   As the daughter of a newspaperman , Douglas 's childhood was spent moving from town to town before her family finally settled in southern California . Douglas attended the University of New Mexico , where she majored in Latin American studies , and lived for a year in Ecuador . After attending law school at UCLA , Douglas became an attorney in the Los Angeles criminal courts . Most of her legal career was spent in dependency court .   Dependency court is where children who have been removed from their parent 's custody because of severe abuse , neglect or abandonment move through the legal system . It 's a niche of the judicial system with a high burn-out rate .   In 1990 , Douglas published a novel called El Niño with Viking Press . The book was well received by critics and Douglas went on to publish two mystery novels with Vikingunder the name of Mercedes Lambert , Dogtown in 1991 and Soultown in 1996 . These books feature two women detectives : Whitney Logan , fresh out of law school , and Lupe Ramos , a chicana prostitute . Drawn into webs of corruption and deceit , Whitney and Lupe move through the multicultural landscape of southern California . Their relationship underlines the cultural friction in Los Angeles at the end of the 20th century .   `` Los Angeles is the greatest city for crime fiction because of all the conflicts and potential for conflict . We start out on a precarious footing , trembling on the brink of natural disaster . Then we take hundreds of thousands of people who did n't get along in their countries of origin , add that to an entrenched , angry and frightened group of people who do n't want them here , throw in a Santa Ana , a few random insane murderers and pedophiles and then turn the whole thing over to studio executives and the LAPD . It 's like a woman with bad skin piling on a lot of makeup . Things are going to get ugly before the night is over . ''  Douglas Anne Munson , Los Angeles magazine , 1996  In the mid-1990s , Douglas had three well-regarded books published . She was teaching creative writing and journaling at UCLA . Los Angeles magazine , in an article on the hottest LA mystery writers , included her in a group composed of Michael Connelly , Walter Mosley , James Ellroy , and Robert Crais . Despite growing recognition and accomplishment , Douglas was struggling to stay afloat . As the caseload in dependency court grew , she became less able to endure the suffering she witnessed daily .   In 1996 , Douglas resigned from the courts and quit teaching . She moved briefly to Bainbridge Island in Washington state to complete the third Whitney Logan novel , Ghosttown . During this time she traveled back-and-forth to San Francisco to earn a credential to teach English abroad .   After completing Ghosttown , Douglas sent it to her agent . She learned a month later the publisher had rejected the book , mainly over creative differences . After trying unsuccessfully to reshape the book into a completely different work , Douglas stopped writing completely and accepted a position in the Czech Republic teaching English to soldiers , missionaries , and mink farmers .   In 2001 , Douglas discovered a lump in her breast . She had successfully fought breast cancer while writing El Niño in the late 1980s . Fearing the cancer had returned , Douglas returned to the United States to seek medical treatment in Connecticut . When the tests were conclusive , she was given six months to live . She outlived that prediction , and was able to make one last visit to the Czech Republic in December 2003 before dying on December 22 , 2003 at a hospital in Norwalk , Connecticut .   Four years after her death , Ghosttown , the third and final Whitney Logan mystery , found a publisher with Five Star Mystery ; in the Spring of 2008 , the first two Whitney Logan mysteries -- Dogtown and Soultown -- will be reprinted in a single edition by Stark House .

neg: Douglas Island Douglas Island is a tidal island in the U.S. state of Alaska , just west of downtown Juneau and east of Admiralty Island . It is separated from mainland Juneau by the Gastineau Channel . The Juneau-Douglas Bridge , connecting the island with Juneau , provides a two lane road to and from the island and accommodates both vehicular and pedestrian traffic . Recently , there have been plans to build a new bridge from North Douglas to the Mendenhall Valley . Admiralty Island lies to the west and south , across the Stephens Passage . Douglas Island was named for John Douglas , Bishop of Salisbury , by Captain George Vancouver . Joseph Whidbey , master of the during Vancouver 's expedition , was the first to sight it in 1794 .   Features of the island include remnants of the Treadwell gold mine , Sandy Beach , the only sand beach in the Juneau area ( made from mine tailings ) , Eaglecrest Ski Area , Perseverance Theatre , and the Douglas Public Library . As a tidal island , Douglas is connected to the mainland at its north end when the Gastineau Channel is at low tide . During low tide , Douglas Island is connected with Juneau 's Twin Lakes area , the Juneau International Airport as well as other sites .   Douglas is usually thought of as two areas : downtown Douglas ( including West Juneau ) , containing Douglas Harbor , Sandy Beach , the mines , the library , Gastineau Elementary , the theatre , the gas station , the few bars and restaurants , and the bridge to Juneau ; and North Douglas Island , containing a tank farm , Eaglecrest Ski Area and a heliport .   The island has a land area of 76.93 sqmi and had a population of 5,297 at the 2000 United States Census , with over half of the island 's population residing in Douglas proper . It is part of the City and Borough of Juneau . The island 's highest point , Mount Ben Stewart , was named in honor of Benjamin D. Stewart ( 1878 -- 1976 ) , an early mayor of Juneau .   Following the 2012 election of Merrill Sanford , the incumbent mayor of Juneau , the Juneau Empire noted the island 's `` outsized contribution '' to Juneau-area politics . Sanford , Byron Mallott ( currently lieutenant governor of Alaska ) and Dennis Egan ( currently Juneau 's representative in the Alaska Senate ) live in West Juneau . Sally Smith , who succeeded Egan as mayor , lives in the Lawson Creek neighborhood between Douglas and West Juneau , while her successor Bruce Botelho lives in Douglas . Beth Kerttula , who represented portions of Juneau in the Alaska House of Representatives from 1999 to 2014 , lives in North Douglas . Additionally , John Dimond , the first Juneau-based justice of the Alaska Supreme Court , lived in Douglas , while his successor Robert Boochever lived along the Douglas Highway a half-mile north of Douglas 's then-city limits .

neg: Douglas D. Scott Douglas D. Scott is an American archaeologist most notable for his work at the Little Bighorn in the mid-1980s . Working with Richard Fox , Melissa Connor , Doug Harmon , and staff and volunteers from the National Park Service , Scott worked to sketch out a field methodology that has enabled archaeologists to systematically investigate battlefields . This work is internationally recognized as constituting a great step forward in our ability to interpret battlefields archaeologically , regardless of the extent of the historical record . At the Little Bighorn , the fieldwork produced an interpretation of the battle that for the first time gave a clear understanding of the way the battle developed and pointed out some of the glaring inaccuracies of the historiography of the event . The fieldwork also helped determine which of the 242 headstones to the 210 U.S. soldiers lost at the Little Bighorn were erroneous , and recovered skeletal elements allowed one of the soldiers to be positively identified . It was not as successful in recovering the remains of 24 men lost in Deep Ravine and whose whereabouts are unknown to this day .   Scott continued doing battlefield archaeology by working at Little Bighorn every season for 23 years . He also directed work at Big Hole Battlefield National Historical Site , Sand Creek National Historic Site , Wilson 's Creek National Battlefield , Pea Ridge National Battlefield Park , and Monroe 's Crossroads Battlefield . He has assisted , advised , or volunteered on over 40 other battlefield and conflict site investigations in the U.S. , England , and Belgium , including Washita National Historic Site and Honey Springs Battlefield with Bill Lees .   In another convergence the work at the Little Bighorn and the discovery of soldiers ' skeletal remains brought Scott into contact with Clyde Snow . Snow did an exceptional analysis of those remains , but also cajoled Doug Scott and Melissa Connor into taking the methods they developed in battlefield recovery to the field of forensic science . Snow 's statement that they should take their methods to a `` real '' battlefield led them to working for Physicians for Human Rights , the UN El Salvador Truth Commission , the UN Truth Commission for Former Yugoslavia , the International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia , the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda , the U.S. State Department on a case in northern Cyprus , for PHR on the Greek side of Cyprus , and for the Regime Crime Liaison Office in Iraq . Connor shifted from prehistoric and historic archaeology to full-time forensic archaeology in 2000 . She now directs the Forensic Investigation Research Station ( FIRS ) for Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction , Colorado . Both Scott and Connor are Fellows of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences .   For this work , Scott has been honored with awards from the National Park Service . In 1992 , he was awarded the Department of Interior 's Meritorious Service Award and Medal for career accomplishments and innovative research . He served as the president of the Society for Historical Archaeology from 2006-2007 . In 2015 Scott received the J. C. Harrington Award , presented by the Society for Historical Archaeology for his life-time contributions to archaeology centered on scholarship . Scott is also a member of the Advisory Board for Armchair General Magazine .
