Untitled[edit]

I have changed "Nederlands" in "Netherlands (The)" because

- "Nederlands" is the Dutch word for the language spoken in The Netherlands.

- "The Netherlands" is the English name of the country (also called "Holland")

Because all other maps are categorized by country and not by language, it is logical to use the Englisch name of the country and not the Dutch name of the language spoken in that country.

I have also placed the map of Antwerp in Belgium, because Antwerp is found in Belgium and not in The Netherlands.
