Wadden Islands
Besides the mainland the Netherlands also consists of the Wadden Islands. These islands go from the Netherlands al the way to Denmark, but just five of these islands belong to the Netherlands. In the correct order these are Texel, Vlieland, Terschelling, Ameland and Schiermonnikoog. An easy way to remember these islands in the right order is with the help of the mnemonic "TVTAS" (translated as 'tv bag'), these are the first letters of the names of the five islands.
