Holland acclimated to be an absolute country. It had a "Count", its own banknote (until the 19th century), its own barometer units and time - but it gave up that ability in the 16th century, back it affiliated with the Northern and Southern Netherlands adjoin the armies of the King of Spain whom at the time was clearly the "Count of Holland" and disqualified over this accomplished area. The capital affidavit for war were religious differences, disputes over taxes and the actuality that back some cities capital to breach free, the King's army was absolutely barbarous to civilians.
Eventually the Southern Netherlands gave up the action and backward active by adopted armament until 1830. That breadth is now alleged Belgium. The Northern Netherlands fought on and won. Then, forth with the counties of (Holland, Drente, Groningen, Friesland, Gelderland, Zeeland and Utrecht) became a chargeless Republic, including the active regions of Brabant and Limburg. All these counties (called ambit today, calm with some new ones) are now alleged "The Kingdom of the Netherlands." Today the arena of Limburg still has a Governor and to say to addition from Limburg or Friesland that he or she is from Holland, is advised an insult. They are not! They accede themselves to be from the Netherlands. They alike accept their own language.
People from added Ambit (except North and South Holland) will conceivably not accede it a absolute insult, but still they're not from Holland. In summary, Holland gave up its alone ability a actual continued time ago, so calling the Netherlands "Holland", is abundant like calling Great Britain "England." Wrong in both cases.
