The Low Countries, Low Lands or, in the geographic sense of the term, the Netherlands (Dutch: de Lage Landen or de Nederlanden, French: les Pays Bas), is a coastal region in northwestern Europe, consisting especially of the Netherlands, Belgium, and the low-lying delta of the Rhine, Meuse, Scheldt, and Ems rivers where much of the land is at or below sea level. This wide area of Western Europe roughly stretches from the French département du Nord at its southwestern point, to German East Frisia at its northeastern point. * The Low Countries is often considered to include inland areas with strong links, such as Luxembourg today, and historically, parts of the German Rhineland. However the region encompasses mostly coastal areas bounded by the North Sea or the English Channel. Historically, the regions without access to the sea have linked themselves politically and economically to those with access to form various unions of ports and hinterland. Within the European Union the region's political grouping is still referred to as the Benelux (short for Belgium-Netherlands-Luxembourg). * During the Roman empire the region contained a militarized frontier and contact point between Rome and Germany. With the collapse of the empire, the Low Countries were the scene of the early independent trading centres, that marked the reawakening of Europe in the 12th century. In that period, they rivalled northern Italy as one of the most densely populated regions of Western Europe. Most of the cities were governed by guilds and councils along with a figurehead ruler; interaction with their ruler was regulated by a strict set of rules describing what the latter could and could not expect from them. All of the regions mainly depended on trade, manufacturing and the encouragement of the free flow of goods and craftsmen. * Dutch and French dialects were the main languages used in secular city life. |
