The Netherlands (Dutch: Nederland) (IPA: [Ëne:dÉrlÉnt]) is the European part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Dutch: Koninkrijk der Nederlanden), which consists of the Netherlands, the Netherlands Antilles, and Aruba. The Netherlands is a constitutional monarchy, located in northwestern Europe. It is bordered by the North Sea to the north and west, Belgium to the south, and Germany to the east. The current borders were established in 1839.
The Netherlands is often referred to by the name Holland. This is not terminologically precise, as the provinces of North and South Holland in the western Netherlands are only two of the country's twelve provinces (for more on this and other naming issues see Netherlands (terminology)).
The Netherlands is a densely populated and geographically low-lying country and is popularly known for its windmills, cheese, clogs (wooden shoes), dikes, tulips, bicycles and social tolerance. Its policies are liberal toward drugs, prostitution, same-sex marriage, abortion and euthanasia.
The country is host to the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court and the European Union's criminal intelligence agency (Europol) at The Hague.

You must be an American HUH?
Well then you should know that Netherlands is a magical place right outside of Santa Barbara, Ca where little boys get to ride ferris wheels, play with monkeys named Bubbles and then sleep in the same bed with a one-gloved pop star.

Yuck you don't know? :p You'll get a failing grade if you were under my history teacher in high school. Its in the northwest of UK I think, on an island shared by Finland... and another country, I forgot, there's 3 of them. And if I'm not mistaken, it is in Netherlands where marijuana is sold legally in drugstores... or is it Amsterdam?
Oops, was I talking about Norway? :p
