Change country from NL to CW

1

how can we change data for Curaçao? In OSM and Nominatim Curaçao is registered as Netherlands (NL). This is incorrect. Curacao is an autonomous country in the kingdom of the Netherlands but is never referred to as the Netherlands.

A typical street address in the geocoder would show up as:

Kaya Guzman Blanco (street), Willemstad (City), 0000AA (zip [curacao has no zip code), NL (Country)

It should show as

Kaya Guzman Blanco, Willemstad, CW (or Curaçao)

Curacao should never have NL as country

How can this be modified?

Curaçao does not belong to The Netherlands , but it does belong the "The Kingdom of the Netherlands", not ? At least that is what I get from this video.
