What does Aruba mean?

Aruba is the name of an island in the Caribbean.

Located on the coast of the Gulf of Venezuela in the north of Venezuela, a South American country, it is only about 25 kilometers away from Paraguana Peninsula.

Aruba is currently an autonomous country in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and its relationship with the Netherlands is similar to the Commonwealth system. Due to the dry climate and few common tropical plants, the scene on the island is quite different from the existing impression of ordinary people on the Caribbean Sea.
