I guess, they are independent. Am I saying it correctly? Just correct me if I'm wrong, guys. I don't totally know about Aruba's history.

Autonomy means independence or freedom. I didn't even know that Aruba is an autonomous region. If so, do they still comply with the rules and laws of Netherlands?

Aruba has great history. Although it is an autonomous region, I think they still comply with the rules and regulations of their country. By the way, who gave the name Aruba?
