What's with the sudden influx of Dutch threads? Both anti- and pro.

Also the proper English term IS Netherlander, but it fell out off use.

Called Гoллaндия/гoллaндeц (Holland/Hollander) here. Дaтчaнин (Dutch) means Denmark dweller.

Correct name is Netherlands, Holland is just a region within the Netherlands but it just so happened to be the more relevant one, kinda like if the US was suddenly all called New York
