Through the ages, the Netherlands (and Flanders, the northern part of Belgium) have been called the Low Lands (in Dutch: neder-land, hence the English name). It is land that has been created in undeep sea by the tides and by erosion products that were delivered by the rivers. This has created an almost perfectly flat landscape at sea level.

The southern tip of the Netherlands and the southern half of Belgium are not quite flat.
