Netherlands
Netherlands is a small densely populated country, that can be found in western Europe. A part of the kingdom of the Netherlands. It also has three islands from the Caribbean islands. The capital of Netherlands is Amsterdam, a well known city worldwide. The country name literally means low land, since its quite low having the average height of the country a bit less then 1 meter above the sea level and being almost flat compared to other areas.
Jersey
Jersey is another British crown dependency with the full name of Bailiwick of Jersey. Its the largest of the channel islands. Although its a Bailiwick, its has different relation ship with the crown than the other Bailiwicks (Isle of Man and Guernsey). Its not yet fully a part of the European union, simply put the relation ship between them is complicated.

Making not only it's economy stable, but also the political and military fields. The stability of the economy of Luxembourg may be of concern to some people and may need to be addressed in the future.

Republic of Ireland, is a part of the island Ireland, second part of the island belongs to the United Kingdom and usually being called Northern Ireland. The Irish may be known for many things, but in this case we are going to be looking at the specific area of offshore business in Ireland.
