Details Nederland - Ik hou van

FRA - Les Pays-Bas (Nederland en néerlandais, Néerlande, forme française désuète qui n'a jamais été d'usage courant) sont la partie européenne et continentale du Royaume des Pays-Bas (ce dernier incluant également des territoires insulaires dans la mer des Caraïbes), une monarchie constitutionnelle. Have you voted for or against Populariteit van Nederland ? Ils sont situés au nord-ouest de l'Europe et sont bordés par la mer du Nord, la Belgique et l'Allemagne. Par extension, on utilise le terme Pays-Bas pour désigner l'ensemble du Royaume des Pays-Bas (y compris donc Aruba et les Antilles néerlandaises). Un abus de langage courant (et parfois pratiqué par les Néerlandais eux-mêmes) désigne les Pays-Bas et les Néerlandais respectivement par la Hollande et les Hollandais (et même parfois la langue néerlandaise par le hollandais). La Hollande stricto sensu n'est qu'une des régions des Pays-Bas divisée en deux provinces (Hollande-Septentrionale et Hollande-Méridionale), abritant les grandes villes du pays (Amsterdam, La Haye, Rotterdam)1, et le hollandais une catégorie de dialectes parlés dans ces provinces.
