      @@GrandTerr ''A few cities'' my guy, you know a lot of the area of the Netherlands is highly urbanised. This is why it's among the most densily populated countries. You can most of the times, spot the next city, not far in the distance, while being in a high-up location in a city. Also, how is weather nicer in Switzerland. Sir, are you trolling? Please stop, you're quite bad at it.

    You missed the Ruinaulta, a stunning gorge in Switzerland where the Rhine carved through the massive Flims rockslide, leaving towering white cliffs, lush forests, and wild rapids-a true natural wonder.

      @@nico210 You obviously know nothing about the changing dynamics of a delta. After several floods in the 15th century the southern water tributaries became the major water course and the rivers IJssel and 'old Rhine' received less water. Before the nortern Hansa cities along the IJssel were important cities, after the ports in the Holland region gained importance. Just as Bruges was an important trade city, until the sea access lost depth , due to sand accretion ..

    It is easy to see how a nation as small as the Netherlands became a major world power in the days of colonization and industrialization.
    All the goods heading up and down this economically essential river would have to be transferred between river barges and seafaring ships. A lot of wealth passed through that river delta. It still does today.

Its map reveals a dramatic contrast between its rugged, mountainous interior-dominated by the Central Mountain Range-and the flat, fertile plains along its western coast.
