Hello,
* Deutschland - is German for Germany
* Dutchland - seems to be company names - or a made-up name for the Netherlands, because the fact that the people who live there are Dutch and that the language is Dutch confuses them.
* Deitschland - alternate spelling Deutschland
* Deutsch - German the language (in German)
* Dutch - the people from Holland or the language they speak.
* Deitsch (pronounced diech) or Deitsh (Ohio spelling) is a German dialect still spoken in parts of Alsace, in France, and in some German states, as well as Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana, Ontario and other states and provinces in North America
Hope this helps

Deutschland and Deutsch are the high German words for Germany and German respectively.
Deitschland and Deitsch are the low German names for Germany and German respectively.
Dutchland is a word coined by the Americans for commercial purposes.
Dutch is the English word for the language and people of the Netherlands.
If you are speaking English, then Dutch is the only one of these you need concern yourself with.

There is no such word as Dutchland. We use the word Dutch to refer to the people of the Netherlands (i.e. he or she is Dutch). The word Deutschland is used to refer to Germany and is considered to be a German word, we also occasionally refer to Deutsch as their language but more commonly we use the term German. The other words do not exist in my dictionary.

Deutschland = What Germans call their country
Dutchland = No such word
Deitschland = No such word
Deutsch = Translates as 'German' (that is what Germans call their language, for example)
Dutch = A person who was born in The Netherlands
Deitsch = No such word, in English anyway (might mean something in German)

What's your question? None of those words are English apart from "Dutch", which refers to people from the Netherlands.
