pff, it's been perfectly acceptable to interchange the terms for ages, mr pedantic :)

It's kinda like how referring to the UK (or 'British' or something) as England makes perfect sense in most non-english speaking countries.

I'm saying that if our hypothetical Scot goes to mainland Europe, he shouldn't be surprised or insulted when people refer to him as English more frequently than not. It's a history thing; England is historically the most influential and that's who the rest of the world had to deal with - in our case so was Holland. Those names stuck, abroad moreso than at home perhaps. :smirk:

it's just something stupid that our language and common usage has done.

when someone refers to something stupid "Americans" have done, should people in Canada get offended? Even tho American should and does mean any person in North or South, in common english usage it's understood that an "American" is a citizen of the United States of America.

TBQH this I just learned from you that Holland is a region. I always used the two interchangeably and never really cared to find out why your country had "two names".

And you expecting an American newspaper to accurately know the geography of a foreign country? No way, lol. Rick Sanchez thought Easter Island was Hawaii.

Tut tut, it's Katherine now. Kate is too common for the British monarchy.
