Curaçao
(redirected from Korsou)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Curaçao

Island in the West Indies, one of the Netherlands Antilles; area 444 sq km/171 sq mi; population (1998 est) 153,700. The principal industry, dating from 1918, is the refining of Venezuelan petroleum, though in recent years tourism has also become important. Curaçao was colonized by Spain in 1527, annexed by the Dutch West India Company in 1634, and gave its name from 1924 to the group of islands renamed the Netherlands Antilles in 1948. Its capital is the port of Willemstad.

Curaçao

Sweet liqueur made by flavouring alcohol (obtained from distillation) with sugar and the dried peels of bitter oranges. Originally from the Caribbean island of Curaçao, it is now made elsewhere. The alcohol content varies between 36% and 40%.
