As someone who grew up in Almere. I have my childhood memories of digging in our garden and finding small sea shells every where.
VersVlees that actually sounds really cool! You can just find sea shells right in your backyard.
@@Tyler732594 Well a downside of living on any polder or former lake/sea floor anything not a foundation tends to sink. (Severity depends on the age/location of the neighborhood in almere) Every few years you need to bring in sand to level up your garden/driveway.
btw I can still find the sea shells but I now have to dig a at least through a meter of sand lol.
Guess we're neighbours, buddy😂😂😂
I’m not really
@@VersVlees Sounds like future Mexico City lol
Im Dutch, and what you are seeing here, is our coverup. Our actual country is only accesible if you have 12 obsidian blocks, and flint and steel. With this, you can create a portal to our *real* country.
Does the real country still have Polders?
@@donotcare57656 r/woosh
You can also use a fire charge :p
You only need 10 obsidian, you dont need to fill the corners
Sssshh!!! Dont tell them! The nazis are still hiding there....
Can't conquer land ? Easy, just create land.
The Netherlands was conquered from the Spanish (which gained it it's independence) and you should also look into the colonies conquered by the VOC all around the world. In fact, the Dutch even conquered England and put a Dutch king on the throne at one point.
@@exitspree Yes! It is called the glorious revolution. The Dutch king restored order after a long time of turmoil. Without this event, it would have taken the English alot longer to become the naval hegemon and build their world encompassing empire....
@@exitspree They didn't "conquer" England. William of Orange just became king.
@@alejandrayalanbowman367 Wrong! Quote from Wikipedia: "The Glorious Revolution, also called the Revolution of 1688, was the overthrow of King James II of England (James VII of Scotland) by a union of English Parliamentarians with the Dutch stadtholder William III, Prince of Orange, who was James's nephew and son-in-law. William's successful invasion of England with a Dutch fleet and army led to his ascension to the throne as William III of England jointly with his wife, Mary II, James's daughter, after the Declaration of Right, leading to the Bill of Rights 1689." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glorious_Revolution
Jan-Willem It was really just William of Orange was an heir to the throne and HE was very popular whilst the King was not. So they basically just invited him over and became king. Not much fighting happened
For somebody who grew up in Central Amsterdam, this makes so many of the names in NL make sense such as AmsterDAM, RotterDAM, VenserPOLDER, SloterDIJK etc. I really never knew
If I recall correctly, the original name of Amsterdam was Amstelerdam, meaning dam in/of the Amstel, which is a river running through the city.
sorry hoor maar paleis op de dam maakte het niet duidelijk voor je?
When I was a kid I reasoned that "Amsterdam" must be a dam that had been built by a giant hamster 😂
Imagine that after years of hard work, you finally retire and buy a home for yourself by the sea.....
And then the government to simply come and make it so your lovely seaside beach house is now 20 miles from the sea... i'd be mad
Luckily back in the day, people didn't retire :D So that problem didn't exist
I'm sure, when you've got your eyes open, that you're informed in advance, about your loss of a pretty view, Frederico. So that you're given a chance to move and find another lovely seaside beach house. Don't be dramatic.
@@devonseamoor Ever heard of humor? :p
No joke; in the USA local governments use eminent domain to take your land and in some cases do nothing with it.
@@moladiver6817 I'm in the US. We can't afford humor like that. Some kid on the beach building a dam in front of their sand castle would turn into some Fox News headline:
"Flood Prevention Barriers: Is Water Really That Bad?"
By the end of the week, it will develop into: "Liberals Confiscating Beach Houses, Despite Science Disproving Climate Change"
A year later, after a "random" Cat. 5 hurricane: "Obama Allows Thousands Of Homes To Flood, Despite Warnings".
My grandfather helped create one of the polders, where he settled as a farmer after its completion. I was born there myself and I can say it's very unnatural looking land, extremely flat and divided into perfect road and farm grids.
About 15 years ago we had very heavy rainfall and the pumps couldn't keep up. Our village was covered in half a meter of water.
Strange idea that we live 4 meters below sea level, sometimes I wonder if I should feel as safe as I do.
Yeah heavy rainfall, rising sea level. Sounds like a recipe for disaster. I wish you all the luck and good fortune in the world.
Why should you? Your country have solved a problem and massively reclaimed lands that other countries can only dream of doing
@@borresron Imagine a hurricane, earthquake, tsunami, or other natural disaster hitting an area 4m below sea level. The only thing that seperates our homes from a massive wall of water is a pile of rock and soil.
I agree it's impressive engineering. But I also think it's important to be aware of the situation I'm in.
@@joops110 Fortunately, it is pretty much impossible for a hurricane or a serious earthquake/tsunami to hit the Netherlands due to its location.
@@hadhamalnam Yes you're right, the chance is small. But it will happen eventually, it's just a matter of when.
You forgot to say WHY the Reeds were Burned. Very important. The ground was far too salty to grow crops. They chose plants that grew well in Salty soil AND would take up the salt into its cells. By burning it, they let the salt get carried away in the wind.
This is so fascinating to me. The fact that parts of the country have not existed in the lifetime of my parents, is fascinating.
Cool video.
Great
Nice video. My wife spent most of her childhood living in Flevoland (Biddinghuizen).
One of her cousins was shocked when I told him that there was no English word for Polder.
@Junjun Hmmm...I dunno, I love his accent!
The english word for polder is polder, you better tell him you were joking before he googles it.
Strange really, because England does have a polder of its own, called The Fens. What you end up with is marsh land, low laying flat and prone to high water table and periodic flooding. The Fens were reclaimed by Dutch engineers and labour, many of whom settled as growers on that land.

Wouter van Engelenburg lol I’ve never seen it. Now after searching for it I can say it’s just as good as I hoped it would be.
@Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin The duchy of Mecklenburg-Strelitz is the coolest Mecklenburg. Change my mind
@Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin but the schwerin loyal hereditary line was broken. If Germany went back to 1918 now, the strelitz line (same guy) would rule Mecklenburg-Strelitz and the larger Mecklenburg-Schwerin
@Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin yeah, and to be fair. Wilhelm II almost put the schwerin line in ruling all of Mecklemburg. The strelitz grandduke died in early 1918, and 2 of the most possible heirs were fighting against the germans .... So, the schwerin grandduke took the temporarilly job, to wait until the war was over. But Wilhelm II didn't want traitors have to throne, but then the revolution and all that shit happened, so yeah.
To be honest thoe, The schwerin part was the coolest part. Strelitz just ontrolled the city of Strelitz+some swampland and some random small pockets of forest. Schwerin was way cooler, having harbours, castles, large forests. I just wanted to chat a bit, loved your name.
To turn a swamp into the second biggest food exporting country in the world by using wind & hard work is an amazing achievment. Dutch can be proud world leaders.
Thx
@TheWeeaboo
I'm an Indian and the last sentence is so bloody true
@TheWeeaboo Rhodesians weren't boers/Afrikaner tho, they were anglos
You Somalian overlords apriciate your hard work.
They do not produce the food they export. They are actually re-exporters. Meaning they import food from other countries and export it to their neighbors.
This made them the 4th largest importer in the world with a significantly small population. Even their main exports are eggs, meat and beverages. Meaning, not a land oriented produce.

I never understood the reason for het Veluwemeer. Thank you! This old Dutchman now living in Colorado still remembers riding his motorcycle on the dikes of Zuid Flevoland in the seventies. With all this draining and drying land, just imagine the amount of mosquitos I ran into! My sister insisted on using the garden hose to clean me off before I was allowed to enter her home. Thanks for the memories! 😊
I have to say that this is probably the best video explaining the creation of the Zuiderzee- and IJsselmeerpolders I have come across. One thing you left out (or may have been unaware of), not to diminish what you have made, is that each polder reflects the time in which it was created. The Wieringerpolder has villages that are within walking distance (they used to walk more and longer then we do now), while the Noordoostpolder has towns within biking distance, as biking became ever more popular. Now they where further separated. With the creation of the Flevopolder cars had become immensely popular, and so no the cities and towns were even further separated as they only needed to be within driving distance.
Also, Almere gets its name from the former name of the salty lake that once existed there after the Flevomeer changed due to erosion from storm activity.
Still, a very good description of the process (especially with the planting of, for example, rape seeds to steady the land) that made this whole process possible.
I agree!
Also when you drive through all three from north to south you can tell the different ages by the building styles of the farm houses and the diversity in the forrests.
Small correction: Flevomeer and Almeer where still sweet water. Only after the 11th century it became salty and renamed into Zuiderzee.
Indeed, I agree, great video, very clear and to the point.
i kept hearing Flevoland as "flavour land", like a dutch Guy Fieri
I did too
wow I just visited Marken before watching this...things would have made a lot more sense
Freaking fantastic video. I will be showing this to my 9th graders this week.
Hey mr G what’s up map
Fun fact about Flevoland.
Flevoland was ment as a temporary solution to accommodate the increasing population and should not be in existence today.
Born in Amsterdam, Raised in Lelystad and currently living in Almere, I'm glad they kept it.
Incredible engeneering.
Thanks for making this video, the artwork is great too.
+1 sub!
My father Dr Ir Johan van Veen develloped the Deltaplans even before the war. He handed in his latest plans onle 2 days before the flood of 1953. He also had plans ready for de Maasvlakte in the North Sea as an extenson for Rotterdam port for container ships. Also plans for the Eemshaven port in the North. Vloedkommen, the capacity to contain flood water from the main rivers. Abroad he was called Master of the Floods.
Very well done, researched and narrated!

@jian yang it is at major risk of bursting putting tens of millions at risk
But of cause! you don't know this because your govt. hides every mistake so you ppl. don't realize how inept they are! They didn't even discover that baby formulas made in China had melamine powder in it. It took the Australians to discover that for you! So how are your communist regulators in your country looking after the ppl.
Btw I bought a China made washing machine a yr. ago and already it is faulty! . . .keeps giving me error 5 messages which according to the manual means the machine is not level, but it IS level ! what a piece of CRAP! and ONLY 1yr. old!
@@johnzuijdveld9585 Can you please share some source regarding the dam? I would like to learn more about this, whatever sources I have read do not offer any concrete inference on their own just that someone said something about that dam. I would be much obliged if you could share a source that talks about some metric on which it has been established to be under duress. At one point I read that it was only ten metres from over flowing, but if the dam does not give even when it overflows, doesn't it mean that it will potentially never break? Though of course downstream damage could still be very extreme.
@@randomrandom316 I'll tackle this again . . . NEVER say never! many dams have lasted for a very long time and 10mtrs is about 35 feet +or - sounds fairly reassuring to me! BUT! ALL dams built around the 1980's did not account for any thing called 'Global Warming'
A few years ago there was catastrophic floods in Queensland Australia, there were unprecedented rains and the authorities feared that the dam may collapse so they let billions of gigalitres of water flood the plains to ensure that the dam would not fail which would have been much worse. But as a result there were millions if not billions of $ damage, a failure of long term panning or just plain ignorance? All Govts. are having or going to have these problems soon, will they adjust as necessary or simply deny any problems?
The 5 Gorges Dam system has been identified around the world as a serious threat to life, (it's not the only one worldwide, there are others elsewhere) but the CCP. refuses to acknowledge international good will and offers of help, saying this is ALL Western propaganda trying to destabilize it's control!
The best video I have ever watched about this theme. Thank you very much !
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

It was originally a French saying by Descartes. Know your history. That was translated to English and most Dutch gave heard thus saying in Dutch too.
@@Grav648 Het was een oorspronkelijk een uitspraak in het Frans van de filosoof Descartes die zich in de Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Provinciën gevestigd had.
When the Dutch colonized Indonesia they introduced the art of hydroengineering and built many canals, bridges and dams throughout Java island. Many of which are still in use today even after hundreds of years.
At the end of the day, Jakarta is just a much larger, much more tropical version of amsterdam. (Or was)
Tapi lihat Jakarta sekarang! Banyak kanal di tutup dari orang Indonesia kapan merdeka dari Belanda. Hasil: banjir terus sekarang. Dan Belanda harus bantu Jakarta lagi. Pak Anies yg bodoh bebar.
Excellent video. In the 1980s I did a conference at the large Conference Center on Flavoland. An amazing place with saunas, gyms and a gigantic (wave-producing) pool. I'd love to see a video on that Center. (It was odd driving through fields of "mud" and then seeing that conference center.)
Great animations
Wow. Fascinating explanation. I was tought that they just built a single super big dams, drained it and voila! Turns out it not that simple. :) I admit it, that Dutch is famous for hydro engineering in the world. I always excited about Dutch's made. Its so durable and advanced, considered by time it build. Some Dutch's made still exists in my country, Indonesia, not only canals and dams, but also building. Their occupy last 300+ years here. :) Many our early engineers is graduated from Netherland, too.
Here in the Netherland, Indonesian cuisine is still hugely popular to this day.
Good thing we left something to be proud of... Our nation did some shitty things to your country, trying to control your populace, while taking your land, burning down resistant villages, executing hordes of people...
@@desu38 yass! Excellent spicy food. I make rendang quite often and combine serundeng on dishes with rice. Gado Gado, Nasi goreng (though that has spread quite far, everywhere).
Indonesia dapat yg banyak bagus dari Belanda, tidak hanya masalah. Semua teknik dari Belanda, kereta api, edukasi, sekolah, universitas, RS, infrastruktur semua di bangun. Tapi knp skg banyak banjir di Jakarta? Krn waktu merdeka orang Indonesia tutup "kanal" bangun dr Belanda. Tdk begitu pintar kan? Skg Belanda mau bantu krn Jakarta benar di dalam bahaya, tidak hanya dari musim hujan tapi juga dari Laut Jawa.
@@corbeau-_- All the colonialists treated their subjugated quite poorly by todays standards, but todays standards are MUCH higher than in those days. My father used to tell us that in the Dutch East Indies we treated the natives much better than most colonial powers, sending some back to Holland so that they could be trained to eventually take over the running of their country as the Dutch saw in advance that the colonial days were coming to an end. They intended for the Indonesians to be independent but a willing member of the Dutch Commonwealth, as their West Indies Antillean have become. Unfortunately the 2nd. WW. got in the way and afterwards the English and USA. forced the Dutch to relinquish control to the rebels there even tho' the Dutch warned that Indonesia was not ready for self rule, and as a result went into 20-25yrs? of internal struggle. The English did this because they were jealous of the Dutch control of the spice trade!

I am a Nepali. The Land Mafia in my country is also replicating this strategy only to do wrose for the environment, culture and the community. The Holy rivers that irrigated lands are now turned to tame drainages... no fish, no life.. Ponds and lakes are not recharged and dried so that they can be sold and Malls and shopping centers are constructed. you can See one at Thamel (Tourist hub in Nepal).
This thing legit reminds me of Minecraft where I drain water from ocean with sponges and stuff
Funny thing, in the city Almere a lake has been created. The name of this lake is called 'weerwater' which means 'water again'
Very interesting videos!
Thank you very much for this video, I'm an Australian with Dutch heritage with the last name of Polderman. I had very little knowledge of the meaning before this video.
Hi I'm a Dutchman in S. Au. there's a lot to be gleaned from surnames all over the world. My name means South field, hence that is where my forefathers came from, yours came from some polder region, a name like Van Dyke or Van der Zee tells you where he/she is from when you know that Van means from, as does Von in German, Du in French and De in Spanish and Portuguese I think do the same thing. In English Smith or Black most likely means your ancestral name comes from the trade of blacksmithing, Brown or Bruin of someone involved in leatherworks, Green most likely greengrocers, Cob or Cobbs to do with being a cobbler (bootmaker) ... now joking Jack from a jackass and Jackson being the son of aforementioned jackass! 😊

The dutch are not the second largest exporters of food, they're the second largest exporter of agricultural products by value. It's not just semantics, they make money by exporting high priced flowers and spices. Their flowers are valuable due to geography, tradition and a virus that give them nice colors. Flowers are not food.
Actual exporters of food like soybeans, rice, sugar, wheat and oils are the US, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia and Argentina.
Yep. Fair point. I did not think of that, it should have been 'agricultural products' :(
🤔 Hmmm a large part of their agricultural products are seeds this expertise started in the 17 th century and this expertise is unmachted. It's so important for the worlds food production that they feared that the Corona crises endangered food production worldwide because seeds could not be exported in time for sowing crobs...
Yeah that surprised me too, I was thinking there was no way Netherlands export more food than the countries you listed haha
@@HistoryScope Btw, I'm not trying to dismiss the achievements of the Netherlands. It's all incredible and I love the Dutch.
Im Dutch and i build greenhouses all around the world because we are the only one who can build them and you will be surprised what you can create in a greenhouse.

However, I do suppose that that would be relative to the depth and terrain of the underwater surfaces.
