Macaronesia
Macaronesia is a collection of four archipelagos in the North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of the continents of Europe and Africa. They belong to three countries: Portugal, Spain, and Cape Verde.〔(Cape Verde, Country Profile at UCLA African Studies Center )〕〔(Canary Islands - Spain )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Makavol 2010 Teneguia Workshop )〕 ==Etymology== The name (which is occasionally misspelled "Macronesia" in false analogy with Micronesia, an unrelated Pacific archipelago containing, among other nations, a country of the same name) is derived from the Greek words for "islands of the fortunate" μακάρων νῆσοι ''makárōn nêsoi'', a term used by Ancient Greek geographers for islands to the west of the Straits of Gibraltar.
