Abstract

The Atlantic, the Indian Ocean, as well as the Mediterranean and South China Seas (AIMS), are home to a number of Small Island Developing States (SIDS), including the Kingdom of Bahrain, Comoros, Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles, Cabo Verde, Guinea Bissau, São Tomé and Principe, Cyprus, and Singapore.1 These countries have population sizes ranging from 88,000 (Seychelles) to over 5,300,000 (Singapore) (see table 5.1). Guinea Bissau, the largest country in the region, occupies 28,120 square kilometers of land followed by Cyprus with 9,241 square kilometers. The majority of the islands in the region, however, occupy less than 1,000 square kilometers of land.2
