00Er... Flat, except for Zuid-Limburg, which is a county in the south. You will find many rivers and dikes to keep us safe...02br
00The main language is Dutch, although people from Limburg tend to refer to their dialect as 'a dialect that's almost a language'. Frysians, who live in the north (Fryslân), still speak Frisian, which is very closely related to English.02br
02br
00The capital is Amsterdam and the country is very multicultural. I have no idea what makes my country so attractive to foreigners though, because it isn't exactly peaceful. Well, it is, but there's a lot of racism in the big cities...02br
02br
00The country is located in northwestern Europe, bordered by the North Sea, Belgium and Germany. It's a low-lying country. That's why it needs the dikes, which it is famous for. The country is also famous for windmills, cheese, clogs (01b00snorts02b00 no-one wears them), tullips and bicycles (didn't know that myself!). 02br

0 Holland is great for riding your bike - flat and with lots of bike-paths; your only 'enemy' is the wind.02br

00The Dutch are mostly very well-organized (certainly better organized than the English), their deepest fear: losing control. (May have something to do with history, i.e. reclaiming the land from the sea.)02br
02br
00The Dutch are also usually very willing to speak English if they can... which makes it rather too easy for us (lazy/fearful) English to avoid learning the Dutch language! 0-
