The Mighty Kingdom Of The Netherlands
The country I studied was The Netherlands. The Netherlands is a very small country in Europe. One of the things I found most interesting is The Netherlands Government. I was so happy and impressed that most people in the Netherlands are okay with same sex marriage and that it was the first country in the world to make in legal! I thought the U.S was the first country who started this just in 2015. But the Dutch started it in 2001! Now moving on to History. I choose to write about Anne Frank. The holocaust is a very interesting and touchy subject for me. I know so much about Anne and her life. She was very a important girl and ended up giving The Netherlands a lot of tourist because of her museum. Anne Frank is a great role model. It was very interesting relearning about her life. I think it’s unfair that she had to live in a house and never come out for 2 years. It’s also very tragic that her and her family were found by the nazi’s and died in a consentration camp in Poland called Auschwitz. After the war her father who survived it found her diary and published it. A quote from her diary states “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” This is really surprising. She doesn't hate Hitler and the nazi’s for doing this to her and her people. She still believes they are good people. This teaches people all around the world to always see the good in people no matter what.

Another thing that was especially interesting is The Netherlands is the Arts they have. I am a BIG fan of art. One of my favorite artists in Vincent Van Gogh. I learned a little bit about him when I was younger. Then I found so much more information on him. For example.. He was bipolar, and born in the Netherlands. I didn't know that! The only thing I knew was that he was famous and that he cut off half of his ear. This is Vincent Van Gogh
In The Netherlands economy they rely so much on international trading. That’s why after The Holocaust people were starving because The Netherlands have very few natural resources. They also export HALF the world's tulips! That’s crazy and a lot of tulips… Overall I really enjoyed learning about my country and can’t wait to learn even more! I’m also looking forward to possibly blogging more in the future. I think this was very fun. :)

Here's My pinterest board on more about The Kingdom Of The Netherlands.
I liked your presentation and enjoyed learning about your amazing country. I found it fascinating that netherland exports half of the worlds tulips.
ReplyDeleteIt was so nice to learn about the Netherlands. In Brazil they don't have much tulips, so I was surprised when I heard about the tulips.
ReplyDeleteYour presentation was really good. Learning about the fact that they export half the world's tulips was very interesting, China exports a lot, but not half the world's tulips. China also doesn't have a king or queen, just a president.

ReplyDeleteI liked your presentation it was very good. The Netherlands are a Monarchy and Guatemala is a Democracy. I find it interesting that they have so many tulips and it is a small country. Your blog was also very good.
ReplyDeleteThere was more information that you shared with us on the netherlands than I thought. I had no idea that Van Gogh traveled there. I also did not know about the insane amount of tulips that are grown there. All of the traits of culture that you shared with us was very interesting. Like the Netherland much of Israels economy is based on agriculture. However they grow food not flowers. Overall I enjoyed both your blog and your presentation.
ReplyDeleteI loved watching you present your interesting country! I really liked learning things about the Netherlands. I never knew that The Netherlands were a huge producer of the world's tulips. I also saw that they export a lot of petroleum and so does my country, Peru.
ReplyDeleteThat was a great presentation! I liked how you went above and beyond and did more than 3. I liked how you based your government on the LGBT and I like how they give support for that. There's nothing like that in my country, the UAE in the middle east. I also liked your format of your blog.
ReplyDeleteYour presentation was good. Our countries have some thing in common. The U.K is a constitutional monarchy, and yours is too. Good job!
ReplyDeleteYour presentation was great! Had lots of great information. Australia also believes in gay marriage and is part of the association. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed listening to your presentation! I learned a lot of information about the Netherlands that I did not know before! I think the Netherlands is a very nice country for allowing same-sex marriages. I did not know much about Vincent Van Gogh before your presentation, and you gave a lot of good information about him. Your presentation was very interesting and I really enjoyed it. Great Job!
ReplyDeleteI liked reading your blog and you did a great job on your presentation. I found it shocking that Netherlands holds half of the world tulips.
ReplyDeleteI did not know that 1/2 of the world tulips comes from Netherlands. Also I did not know that Anne Frank died I though she lived and she published he diary.

ReplyDeleteYour presentation and blog was so amazing and it was filled with so much information! I like how you talked about Anne's diary when she lived in the Netherlands. I also think its so cool that the Netherlands have so many Beutiful tulips that they export around the world! You did a great job!

ReplyDeleteI loved your blog. Great information. I like that you focused on other things that most people wouldn't have. I also think it is interesting that the Netherlands were the first ones to legalize the gay marriage, I am not sure if Italy has. I don't think they did because most of the people are roman catholic.

ReplyDeleteExcellent detail and specific information about the country you presented. I like the topics you chose and the comparisons you made to the US. Excellent background about Anne Frank and the liberal nation it is. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI love how happy your country is. I didn't know that they were the first country allow gay marriage. I didn't know that gay marriage was such a big deal
ReplyDeleteI loved how organized you were and I like how you talked about Anne Frank. You said that Art is very popular in The Netherlands and Russia is famous for their art too. Both of our leaders in our Country are presidents, not a queen or king.
