Beautiful Tulips, prized growers. Vast swathes of color across fields of companies shipping around the world.
4meAndyou · F
@SethGreene531 Tulip bulbs used to be a sort of currency during the Renaissance in Holland. They were immensely valuable back then.
SethGreene531 · M
@4meAndyou Yes I've heard that. Similar to items throughout history traded in other countries as currency. 👍

@SethGreene531 so true

A retired couple moved into the world's first 3d printed home in the Netherlands recently.
It's a flat country, most of the land is reclaimed from the sea.

@HootyTheNightOwl Dat is zeker waar!
@FeetAreFantastic Ja ... in het begin was ik beledigd - totdat ik me realiseerde dat hun hart op de juiste plaats zit.
Nu is het iets dat ik ben gaan waarderen - en ik wou dat meer landen niet zo bang waren om te zeggen wat ze rechtstreeks bedoelen.

All the shore line was once under sea
Viper · M
Um, um.... Ummm....
Is that the one where it's under Sea level and they have dam like things holding the sea off?
Also is that the one with the reputation, where pretty much anything is legal and anything can goes, compared to the surrounding countries being a lot more stricter?

It includes more than just the European country we used to know as Holland. Some former colonies, like Curacao, are actually part of the country which is why some of their baseball players have been knighted and why the Netherlands always has one of the strongest baseball teams in Europe.
NerdyPotato · M
@dancingtongue and even the mainland is more than Holland. There are 10 more provinces besides North-Holland and South-Holland.

De Stijl (Neoplasticism) art movement founded by Mondrian and van Doesburg was one of the most important contributions to abstract art in the 20th Century.

There is an amazing market hall in Rotterdam that has the world's largest work of art and attracts more visitors than the Eiffel tower.

I know that if were not for a system of levees, the country would be almost entirely under water now.

@4meAndyou large parts of it for sure

There’s a region within call Frisia that has its only language and sometimes makes a move or two to be independent.

Aka Holland, your weather is very similar to the UK & you also have a Queen 💜
NerdyPotato · M
@BalmyNites Holland is actually only two of the twelve provinces, but that's such a common misconception that it is indeed often used as a synonym for the entire country. The rest is spot on!
BalmyNites · F
@NerdyPotato Yes, I do actually know that 😉
DaddyThomas · 46-50, MVIP
@BalmyNites the Netherlands is not the same as Holland

Holland is just part of it, it's not synonymous with the Netherlands.
Stopmakingsense · 61-69, F
Here's another-. They've abandoned the fight against fascism. Geert Wilders is a typical Dutch person.
Stopmakingsense · 61-69, F
@NerdyPotato when I was a young single mom they were targeting moms in Holland for false welfare fraud. Rutte was in on it. My state in America used the same formula to target me.
@NerdyPotato Yes... but I get told off for saying things like that, though.
I have to be very careful about what I say about the Netherlands on the whole.

@HootyTheNightOwl that's a shame. In dangerous trends like these, it's important to point out the facts, no matter how ugly there are. That's the only wat to make the public aware of what's going on and to stop and reverse the trend.
orange is a popular color there.

And a third fact-. In addition to being nationalist fascists, they turned their back on the world in the climate crisis.v they're fossil fuels globally, a fake clean at home in Holland.

Half the population of SW are unable to recognise Dutch - even when it is posted in a group called "Dutch language".

2nd go round...it appears that the Netherlands may be near the cradle of a second human race on earth simply because they are near Basque, which is the origin of that race. Green eyes are one of the characteristics, as is RH negative blood.

I have both Dutch and Irish heritage. The Dutch have a long history of speed skating. My great grandfather and grandfather were speed skating champions in western New York State. Both would skate on the frozen Genesee River into the city of Rochester. I have a pair of my great grandfather’s skates hanging in my apartment.

I was only in it briefly when I was on a river cruise of the Rhein River. We finished in the Netherlands and Amsterdam. Toured a windmill, and took a taxi to the crowded Amsterdam airport. That's about it. I need to go back and see it more carefully.
