Netherlands is actually running a massive flood protection project in Bangladesh since the geography is kinda similar, thanks dutch guys
@northern_lights I would not have mentioned them if it wasn't massive. many southern part of Bangladesh was suppose to go under sea level but thanks to the dutch.

We also make islands for dubai
@northern_lights but still why u guys don't reclaim land again? For at least agriculture
As a Bengali who was born and raised in the Netherlands, my family always loved and appreciated the Netherlands for their help with their home country.
As a German whose ex is a Dutch girl I’ve got to admit that the Netherlands is still my favorite country in Europe. The Dutch also have mastered combining high work ethics with an relaxed attitude that I wouldn’t have thought possible.
you mean a niederländisch girl
I have a great grandpa that was german and a great grandmother that was Dutch 🤙
That is an impressive statement for a German of all nationalities.

Ja heb je wel eens van een broodje bakkeljouw gehoord en van de Walden eilanden? Daar heeft mijn geschiedenis leraar het niet over:)
I’ve visited all the Dutch municipalities and I’ve lived in two of them, Aruba and Saint Marten. I’ve been following you on yt since 2015 when I’ve lived in Saint Marten. Thanks for al the ADHD geography info. I’ve learned so much from you about my favorite topic. I’ve visited 60 countries so far. I even visited Afghanistan three times. The country of your first episode. Keep up the good work, Barbs. Greetings from a Dutch, long time fan.
leuk, lekker alles zien! :)
Ik doe wat dat betreft niks, altijd leuk om te horen dat iemand wel een passie heeft ;)
St. Marten is a beautiful place. My cousins’ wife is from there and we went there for the wedding
As a Dutchman, the strong lack of bicycles in your video upsets me. We've even got public bicycle chargers for our electric bikes.
i work as a bike security xD
Still a great video with a lot of information~! But i agree it's funny, we have 2 times more bikes then people in the Netherlands
Correct
JustProud or weather complaints for that matter.. though i suppose the english can do that as well as we do
There are more bicycles in the Netherlands then people.
OMG, you didn't mention bicycles!!!!!! It's our life!!!!
Friendly Neighborhood Neocon you must be very smart
@Friendly Neighborhood Neocon bicycles are the most efficient mean of transport, you dumbass
@Friendly Neighborhood Neocon I mean all things considered, the Netherlands is a small, mostly flat country, with good weather. That means they don't need cars, bikes cover distances in towns faster than cars can. It's ideal for the Netherlands.
Yes in the Netherlands and Flanders its a big deal
@Friendly Neighborhood Neocon bicycles are a very ecological and convenient kind of transport, and in the Netherlands bicycle roads are almost everywhere in cities and towns. And if you need to go to another city, you can just use a train. So, in the Netherlands you can simply live without a car and have no troubles:)
Plz. The real reason Dutch are so tall, is all the short people drowned.
All jokes aside, this could actually be a plausible explanation. Dutch ancenstors used to live in huts build up high, because their lands were constantly flooding. Tall people would have survived most incidents of flooding because of their length, therefore natural selection occurs. Small evolutionary changes to humans like that can happen over the span of a few thousand years.
@@esch4510 Dude, the difference between other european countries and netherlands is around 4,5,6 cm. This is not a huge height difference to influence people's survival in a flood... The only natural selection here is the smart ones would get out and the dumb ones would stay and die.
Also, europe as whole is tall, mostly scandinavia (like Norway, the average height there is 1.83 If i'm not mistaken) so it has nothing to do with flooding....
@@VinyZikss Yeah, the flooding part was a joke.
pff.... why didn't I think of that? - Genius!
It's because of natural selection lol.
From Indonesia 🇮🇩 love you Nerdelands!
I hope my grandchildren will like the Zimbabwe episode
Oh come on, it only took 4 years to get this far

Hello, I just wanna share some stories about my grandfather who is a veteran and grandfather's friend who is a veteran Dutch soldier.
He ever told me about his struggles when he was still under colonialism. at that time he was caught by the dutch army and after interrogation he was allowed to go home. when he was detained and interrogated, there was a dutch soldier, he was very nice. he brought my grandfather went home at that time. After many years of independent Indonesia, when my grandpa saw the Dutch people who are on pilgrimage at the Dutch cemetery, he talked with them in Dutch because he was fluent in Dutch. maybe at that time the Dutch army who helped my grandfather heard the news in the Netherlands so he visited Indonesia. After that they met again and they became best friends until now. The Dutch veteran also visits Indonesia every year in August to carry out the commemoration of Indonesia's independence. But now he has died. My grandfather is really sad because he has passed away. Im also sad because he was very good to my grandfather and also to me.and now my grandpa also passed away. but I'm sure they must have been happy there:').thanks for read this.always spread kindness and love
Wow
that's beautiful bro
Interesseert echt niemand.
The Netherlands really do never forget Canada liberated them during WW2. I am canadian and went to the netherlands for a music festival and was treated so insanely warmly everywhere I went. Very good people.

I totally agree!
Thank you so much! Much love from the Netherlands ❤🇳🇱
Netherlands is the most beautiful country I’ve even been to 🇳🇱❤️ people there are so polite, and they always loved to help us find our destinations and all that stuff. I’ve also noticed that they are very open minded and they support every type of choice/lifestyle ❤️

I like how we dutch people comment in dutch on a every video, even if it briefly mentions them.
same as German XD
Have you seen the comments when a vid talks about TEXAS?
Wat denk je, we zijn een klein landje dus we moeten ons toch goed presenteren?
@@nielsniemeijer daar geef ik je gelijk in
i personally tend to avoid typing dutch on any video , other then dutch ones.
yeah being proud of your country is fine and all, but it shows more respect to others if they can actually read what you write.
which also tends to help when cussing them out..... but that's a side bonus.
there's only one topic missing:
dutch people complaining about the weather
And pulling camper vans around all day long.
If its warm we complain
If its cold we complain
If its medium we complain
Conclussion: we dont like anything out of the sky
About the wheater?
We complain about everything

my grandfather used to work and live in the netherlands in the 60's and early 70's then he moved to germany. he is still a big fan of the netherlands. when i ask him why does he like netherlands so much he says " they are good people they work for the world because they make cheese and milk and stuff"
Habib Almas 😂😂
In dutch we don't say "I love you so much" we say "je krijgt nog 1.60 van me voor die frikandelbroodjes, stuur maar ff een tikkie" and I think that's beautiful

No complains at all.
Missing fun fact: the Netherlands is the second largest exporter of agricultural goods in the world. Surpassing China, India, Brazil, and Russia. Pretty incredible for a country 1/10th the size of California...
It goes hand in hand that the Dutch are also leading in agricultural technology.
It's because they buy from third world refine then export
Another could be the fact that the queen is actually from Argentina.
They were also leading in exploiting their colonies

The Wolf is officially comming back to the Netherlands. Last week it was stated that at least one wolf has settled (been here for 6 months) in the Veluwe hills. Several others have passed through the country in the last few years. If groups of wolfs start to settle, it would mean the first permanent dutch wolf population since the middle of the 19th century.
Take ours, then maybe they wouldn't have to kill wolves!

New Amsterdam was kinda the capital of a larger area called New Netherlands or New Holland. It's larger than just New York. It's parts of New York, New Jersey, etc.
Heb je teveel frikandelbroodjes op ofzo
DutchSweetShid jezus je hebt er veel tijd in gestopt, jonko gebruikt?
This was an excellent video! My Oma actually lived in the Netherlands during WWII, and she met my grandfather there, who was serving for the Canadian military. If you ever heard stories about the "Dutch war brides," my Oma was one of them.
About the music section, one artist of note (no pun intended) is Tom Holkenborg, aka Junkie XL, aka that guy who remixed that Elvis Presley song in the early 2000s. While his early work fused EDM with rock & metal, he went on to make music for video games and movies, including Scooby-Doo, Deadpool, the Sonic The Hedgehog movies, and several films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
We don't actually have 2 capital cities...
The capital city is Amsterdam.
The government is located in Den Haag.
No, it's the political capital of our country. The place of various world treaties.

We had water shortages last summer in the Netherlands. We highely depent on the Rijn and Maas river to deliver enough water, but the very dry and warm weather last year resulted in the water level being so low some rivers and channels couldn't be used for transporting goods anymore. The government also forbade farmers in a big part of the country not to use water to save their crobs. Climate change doesn't always mean more water....
That's weather not climate
@@IchOdaNich indeed. But reacurring change in the weather pattern in a period of years could be seen as a sign of climate change.
@@keizervanenerc5180Just do not confuse them. Ifyou do not know what the difference is that plays inthe hands of climate change deniers.
@@IchOdaNich You should also learn to put spaces between your words. I see 'Ifyou' and 'inthe'.
@@tibethatguy But he is right. You should understand that kid
Very minor mistake!: The Willem van Oranje you mentioned in the video was not the first king of the Netherlands, but the first stadtholder and prince of Orange. The Netherlands did not have a king until after the Napoleonic wars, where they finally decided to make the son of the last stadtholder the official king, even though the Orange-Nassau family had essentially ruled as hereditary rulers since the Willem van Oranje you mentioned in the video :)
exactly the first Dutch King was Napoléons younger Brother Louis who abdicated i 1810 in favour of his son Louis II Wilhelm von Nassau was the third king
Love Netherlands, from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇳🇱
I strongly approve.
Even hilbert’s here, yes.
Spijtig van het foutje met onze geliefde koning en zijn moeder als je het mij vraagt. Verder een prima video naar mijn mening
Fun to see you here :)

Another fact: Dutch is the only language other than English to have been the native tongue of a US president (Martin Van Buren).
We rather forget THAT fact! It seems he was a horrible MAN and President
@@IliaKemp He was Dutch, how dare ya insult ur countryman like that :^)
They're all Germanic languages.
@@brenobacci Jeb Bush's native language is English. Spanish is his second language.
@@IliaKemp Could you elaborate? Do you have a source about van Buren's character that underpins horrible MAN?
When you as a dutchman learrn about your own country from an "outsider"
So friggin relatable man
Welp now I learnt more about the country I live in than that I've ever learned in school.

"There's a Dutch saying: act normal. Witch is ironic concidering that the Dutch are anything but normal"
Well now I feel offended.
100% true though.
What's offending about not being normal?
@@BoboButYouCanCallMeTom. Well I'm Dutch and he said the Dutch aren't normal. But y'know, I don't blaim him, and it's just a stupid little joke I made.
@@worldofvariations Haha no I get it, but being different/weird is great!
@@BoboButYouCanCallMeTom. Yeah, it sure is.
all these years i thought that "putting chocolate sprinkles on bread" was an Indonesian invention. i didn't know it was yet another Dutch influence.
Yup it's Dutch. I don't know why we haven't exported it globally to make tons of money because it's so good
Everything about bread and chocolate that Indonesia invented might have some Dutch influence...
@@mafkees9932 yes we do

I legit thought the sprinkles on bread were only a weird thing my family does😂

Would like to point out that Canada is also a part of that Dutch and American 1949 NATO friend circle, as Canada is also a founding member of the alliance.
Also a Dutch tradition:
Going to a video about the Netherlands and saying "I am Dutch and I ...." to give your unrequested opinion.
This is a social media platform, what did you expect? Not only Dutch people do that. If you don't like opinions, you shouldn't be on this website, simple.

One other thing: 98% of all the MDMA produced on earth comes from the Netherlands, more specifically from the province Noord-Brabant ;)
Rick K The stuff in XTC pills lol

De hele dance-scene (EDM) is grotendeels door Nederland(ers) uitgevonden. XTC hoort daarbij. Met goede xtc op is alles mooi en iedereen aardig. Helaas is het tegenwoordig vaak rotzooi en of versneden met speed. Kan je wel lekker hakkuh, maar dat is niet het idee achter xtc. Pure XTC kan wat mij betreft zo op de softdrugs lijst. Er is nog nooit iemand doodgegaan aan xtc (ja, wel aan versneden troep, wel aan uitdroging, maar niet aan xtc zelf, vergelijk anders even met alcohol).
Niet 98%, niet overdrijven
Every dutch person who sees a video about their country: The mighty and invincible dutch armada has arrived! We are now conquering and occupying this said comment section
We call it 'GEKOLONISEERD'
Haha
Same with Germans
I'm in danger.
We are colonising the internet buddy boy
Best video on the Netherland on YT. Your pronunciation is pretty good, even Gouda pronounced correctly. On Van Gogh was quit off.
Well done! The pronunciations were as good as could be expected, and better than many English speakers.
There was one misconception as far as William of Orange is concerned. He was not the first king as the United Provinces of the Netherlands was a Republic, and in fact the first European republic since the Italian merchant republics of the medieval age.
He did however hold the title of 'Stadhouder' a kind of elected president without terms, and his descendents tended to be elected as well, so he can be thought of as a pseudo-king.
The monarchy wasn't officially established until after the rebuilding of the country after the Napoleonic wars.
Regardless, as a Dutch-Texan, thanks for the awesome video!
The confusion is easy to explain, though: both the first stadholder (litt. "place holder") and the first king were called "William I" in subsequent years. And after the establishment of the kingdom in the early 19th century, the royals (who did not descend directly from William of Orange, by the way) and their supporters made an effort to make the stadholders more regal - and by extension, enhance the legitimacy of their own crown.
It's Stadhouder not Staathouder
They also failed to include Zeeuws-Vlaanderen in the thumbnail of the video. But I honnestly think that's all.
Did you move to Texas?
