The Netherlands is located in the west of Europe, and it is adjacent to Germany in the east. Are you a laid-back Dutchman in the windmill country?

The Netherlands is located in central and western Europe, bordering Germany in the east and Belgium in the south. Facing the North Sea in the west and north, it is located in the deltas of Rhine, Mas and Skelter rivers. It is located between 3 2 1' E, 7 13' N and 50 45' N.. The distance between the north and the south of the Netherlands is about 300 kilometers, and the distance between the strips is about 200 kilometers, covering an area of 4 1 1,864 square kilometers. There are seawalls and dikes in coastal areas 1800 kilometers, and the coastline is long 1075 kilometers. 0/8% of the land in Holland/KLOC is cultivated by human beings.

Depression is the most obvious feature of Dutch landform. This area is low-lying, with a quarter of the new land not higher than the altitude 1 m and a quarter below the sea level. Except for some hilly areas in the southwest and east, most of the terrain is very low. The south is connected by the Rhine River, Maas River and Guerder River Delta. Holland is a rapidly developing capitalist society. As one of the founding countries of the European Union and NATO, they are all members of the Schengen Convention, the United Nations, the World Trade Organization and other international economic organizations. It is famous for its bluestone rocks, Dutch windmills, tulips and tolerant social customs.

The Netherlands is located between 5 1 ~ 54 north latitude and is threatened by the Atlantic warm current. It has a warm temperate maritime climate with Leng Xia fever in winter. The annual precipitation in the Netherlands is about 760mm. The distribution of precipitation in the four seasons is basically uniform. So it always rains in Holland, which is strange to say. In the Netherlands, when it rains heavily, few people take shelter from the rain and carry umbrellas, so the Dutch love to get wet. I feel like a fool. Everyone is wandering slowly in the rain. Go out and leave the children without plastic film. If you have a fever or a cold, you don't go to the hospital. If there is no isolation ward, you just carry it. The point is that there is still a lot of rain.

In Holland, everyone can ride 28 bars without driving. There are not many people driving in the street, and bicycles are everywhere. It's a bit like China in the 1980s and 1990s. The altitude in the Netherlands is the highest in the world, but everyone's height standard is the highest in the world. I think it has something to do with drinking pure milk and eating cheese. Dutch people's daily life is particularly leisurely, without the noise of big cities and very skyscrapers. Everyone never saves money. Poor moonlight is rich. We should eat, drink and put aside everything. According to the survey, the average annual working hours of the Dutch are 1776 hours, four days a week and eight hours a day. After work, I invite you to dinner. I won't work overtime for a minute. Hundreds of people eat and drink around the restaurant, and no one plays mobile phones.

In recent years, the total number of China residents in the Netherlands has increased rapidly, from 7,500 in 2000 to 36,500 in 20 19. In twenty years, it has almost quintupled. Immigrants with China background are investing more and more. In 20 19, 54,200 Dutch families will be born in China. Of these, 32,000 are citizens of China. Today, there are about120,000 Chinese in the Netherlands.

The history of Dutch tulips began with a gardener named Cruise. In the new century 16, as the gardener of the Royal Garden in Vienna, Crusi Uss tried his best to get beautiful tulips of Asian origin from the Austrian envoys who went to Turkey, and brought them to the Netherlands, so that these flowers quickly spread all over the Netherlands, which once opened the prelude to tulip fever. 1637 In February, the first bubble economy broke out in Amsterdam, the "center of the universe" at that time, with tulips as the protagonist. Tulips have been fried to a very high price, and people from rich officials to ordinary businessmen are caught in this crazy business. The highest price of tulips is auction. An orphan named Winkle bid 90,000 Dutch guilders for his father's tulips.

After that, the dilemma came unexpectedly. Somehow, in a business transaction on a certain day, tulips with exorbitant prices suddenly could not be sold. Everyone has formed doubts about the market trend. Once the sales market loses hope, the price will collapse immediately. The collapse spread from one city to another, and everyone sold tulips more desperately, causing their prices to plummet, and thousands of flower shops were in trouble within a few days. In the end, the Dutch court came up with a solution through constant discussion, so that the flower shop could sort out the messy business during this period, and the tulip business in the future would not be allowed. However, the people's court admitted that the reason for the madness and sudden collapse of tulip trading is still unclear. This tulip madness has further become an anecdote of historical time.

As a country of windmills, Dutch windmills were imported from Germany at first, just to be ground into powder, and then gradually promoted many industrial chains. At that time, all kinds of raw materials, which occupied the first place in world commerce, were transported from all walks of life to windmills in the Netherlands for production and processing, mainly including: wood from Nordic countries and Baltic countries, hemp seeds and flax seeds from Germany, cinnamon and pepper from India and Southeast Asia. There are many mills, sawmills and paper mills of Dutch windmills in the suburbs of Rotterdam and Amsterdam, the big ports in the Netherlands. Dutch windmills use natural wind speed, which is pollution-free and consumes less electricity. So it is not only used by the Dutch all the time, but also a new energy technology and a very green power device today. The Dutch windmill is the symbol of the Netherlands, so its practical significance exceeds its application.
