DID YOU KNOW THAT...

...the Wikipedia article for Dutch inventions and discoveries is one of the longest listicles on the English Wikipedia?

...almost all names in New York are adaptions of the original Dutch names, back when it was still called New Amsterdam? Brooklyn, Flatbush, Broadway, Greenwich and Wall Street among many others all have Dutch origins.

...this official day was proposed by the US Congress nine years ago?

...the Pennsylvania Dutch are actually German and not Dutch at all?

...I totally spent way too much time carefully carving Hubski into Gouda cheese on this productive day?

...I stole this format from thenewgreen? I hope this doesn't negatively affect our Dutch-American Friendship...here's an appropriate song to make up for it.
