NETHERLANDS

NETHERLANDS

I was born in Spain, but I have been living in Netherlands since I was a little child, so I feel I am Dutch.

Netherlands are located mainly in the north-west Europe, and It has several islands in the Caribbean.

Mainlad Netherlands borders the North Sea to the north and west, Belgium to the south, and Germany to the east.

It is a parliamentary democracy organized as a unytare state. The country capital is Amsterdam.


The Netherlands is an European’s country. It has a population of 16.847.000, and its total area is about 41.534 km².

Here, we use ‘the Euro’ and the ‘United States Dollars’ are the currency of Caribbean islands.

The official language is Dutch, and there are other recognized regional languages like Frisian, Papiamento and English.

The Netherlands has had many well-known painters.

By Van Gogh


By Rembrandt








It is a very modern country, whose achievements of civilization amaze the world.

The netherlands is also the most liberal country in today's world. There is no place for conservatism. Liberalism is very important not only in economy, but also in society and culture. Because of this, I woul like to live here. Also, they have a typical sweet called Stroopwafels which have a really good taste. I love it!
