The Bahamas consists of more than 700 islands, cays, and islets in the Atlantic Ocean southeast of the U.S. state of Florida. Its capital is Nassau on the island of New Providence. The designation of “Bahamas” can refer to either the country or the larger island chain that it shares with the Turks and Caicos Islands. The islands boast a total population of approximately 320,000 people and the majority of these reside in the capital. In terms of gross domestic product per capita, the Bahamas is one of the richest countries in the Americas (following the United States and Canada).
