As soon as expatriates step into this country, two common questions they frequently ask are 'Is it the Netherlands or Holland?' and 'Why the country has two names?'

The official name of the country is the Netherlands which literally means ' the low-lands' for the simple fact that 60% of the Dutch population lives below sea level. Some centuries ago the strongest economical area of the country used to be the province of Holland which inlcudes today's North and South Holland provinces. Consequently foreign trade evolved in this particular area and the main Dutch traders were Hollanders. Since then this way of referring to the Netherlands became somehow accepted by all!

Whether you're touring the famed windmills of the countryside or the more somber Anne Frank house, the Netherlands is an unparalleled experience.
