Funfact: The Dutch where everywhere around the world. For example, you did mention Harlem in New York. That was made by the Dutch so Harlem's name is based on the city Haarlem and New York was in the past New Amsterdam. So the Duth where also in America.
You missed something, @1:38 you can see, just briefly, a water bridge. The river flows over the road. I think it is the Veluwemeer aqueduct, it connects a small extension of a lake over a road and can be used by boats and ships over the motorway. Greetings from the Black Forest.
By the way, the Dutch founded New York as Nieuw Amsterdam and that is why streets are still named after the Dutch!For example: Wall Street = Wall Street, Harlem the district. The city was initially the capital of the colony of New Netherlands until it was conquered by the British in 1664.
Just a word of caution: the video is beautiful due to the sunny weather. But it is often cloudy or raining here. Want to see more of the country check out the videos on YT from immigrant/expart channels like 'buncharted', 'Marté bernard', 'Dutch Americano' etc. FWIW: The Dutch city of Haarlem lends its name to the NYC borough of Harlem. The Dutch village of Breukelen ditto to NYC's Brooklyn. The county of Holland ditto to New Holland (originally used for the region around NYC, and for Australia). The province of Zeeland ditto to the country of New Zealand. 'Yankee' is a bastardisation of the Dutch given name of 'Jan-Kees'. and on and on. I think there are a number of YT videos going into more depth of this Dutch Heritage around the world.
First thing you have to tell them is that we no longer believe that you can fall off the edge of the earth. After they've regained consciousness you might as well press on and inform them the earth revolves around the sun and not vice versa. That'll probably take about a week to sink in.
@@MaxSujyGermany In part. But the Netherlands are basically the river delta of three rivers (Rhine, Meuse, Schelde) transporting 'mud' for milennia from the high grounds in more central Europe. Around the world, river delta's are by their nature very flat. For instance the provinces of Holland (in medieval times the county of Holland) derive their name from the ancient Dutch word for marshes. FWIW.
Harlem and Brooklyn were named after Dutch places. The areas where the ritch head there "land huizen" there mansion in the country side. On top was New Amsterdam. But the name is not relevante anymore.

Coincidently enough, our video tomorrow is about the Black Forest!

The Netherlands have so much water, because 40% from the country is under the ocean level. Around 20% of his land is dryed seaground.
Make sense! That's why it's so flat! I guess?

see the Netherlands as a riverdelta
You guys could easily be a Dutch couple 😊 We have a large group of Asian (especially Indonesian) people in the Netherlands.
Yes, and I'm tall! Our roommates is Dutch, but barely 5'9!
Tulip fields. Holland is famous for hie Tulips.
Harlem in New York comes from Haarlem NL, as well as Brooklyn is named after Breukelen in the netherlands ✌️
Haha, no, these are not poppy trees.. these are tulips. Poppy mainly groen in Afghanistan for making of heroine.
Those are not poppies, but tulips... And not morfine, but opium/heroine is made from the seeds (not the "tree")
Yes, Sujy figured it out later during the video! :)
Gears that you see in the windmill
My grandfathers sister got killed between those when she was 5 I think
She got stuck with her dress and got crushed
Oh no! :(
Harlem and Brooklyn were named after Dutch places.
The areas where the ritch head there "land huizen" there mansion in the country side.
On top was New Amsterdam.
But the name is not relevante anymore.
Poppie tree what??
It will make sense later in the video :)
The big windmills ruin the landscape!
No, she's not.
If you want to make Dutch friends don’t confuse us with Denmark…
I was not confusing, merely pointing out some similarities (Copenhagen) with some moments from this video.
