The Dutch government is rejecting their country’s rich history and cultural values by making one name official. This liberal political correctness again overriding what citizens want.
In the United States and Britain and several African and Caribbean countries, woke activists have successfully lobbied for statues of historical figures to be torn down and historical buildings and monuments to be re-named. But the Dutch government has decided to go even further and re-name their entire nation.By next year, the country called “Holland” and also known as “The Netherlands” will officially use only the latter name. A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs explained that the Netherlands needed a “more uniform and coordinated approach” to national branding. She said: “We want to present the Netherlands as an open, inventive and inclusive country.”
