Holland is officially the North Western provinces of what is now The Netherlands, but conventionally, people call all of The Netherlands "Holland" and the people "Hollanders" which in some areas would be considered politically incorrect. And yes, The Netherlands is in Europe.

They refer to the same country.
The official name is Kingdom of the Netherlands, Holland is just two eastern provinces called North Holland and South Holland. However The Netherlands is also known as Holland.

I believe Candace is asking if the Netherlands are called Holland by people in Europe.

Holland is part of The Netherlands, which is in Europe.
Many people (in US) say Holland when they mean The Netherlands, but in fact Holland is two provinces at the west coast of The Netherlands.

The Netherlands = name of the country
Holland = name of two of the twelve provinces. Noord-Holland and Zuid-Holland.
