            I've lived here for 21 years and learnt something from this video. I live in North Brabant, so technically, not in Holland.

              Hey, I've been to the Kingdom of the Netherlands and didn't even know it. My ship stopped in Curacao for gas once.

                So what the heck is "Dutch Treat" then?

                Or "double Dutch"?

                    OK, since I am a descendant of family from Overijssel and I reside in South Dakota, is this something I should have known??....... And all this time I thought "Hollanders" came from Sioux County, Iowa........ Huh? You know what they say........ "If you ain't Dutch, you ain't much"......... Thank you for this informative lesson about the Netherlands....... Huh??

                      Wooden head

                      Wouldn't listen!

                          My family originally hails from Woerden, and the wooden head joke has been pretty much accurate for us since the early 17th century, as far as I can tell!
