Known as the largest island country in the Caribbean Sea, CUBA has a total of 16 provinces — provincias in Spanish. In alphabetical order, they are Artemisa, Camagüey, Ciego de Ávila, Cienfuegos, Granma, Guantánamo, Holguín, Isla de la Juventud, La Habana (Havana, Cuba's capital), Las Tunas, Matanzas, Mayabeque, Pinar del Río, Sancti Spíritus, Santiago de Cuba, and Villa Clara. Artemisa and Mayabeque Provinces came into existence in 2011, when both provinces were created from the former La Habana Province. The current La Habana Province is now the country's smallest province.
