Yes, although not the entire . Or more specifically, the Batavians (a tribe dating back to Caesarian times) occupied the Rhine delta, amounting to what is now the Southern and middle Netherlands (the Northern Netherlands was mostly a huge swamp at the time). They were one of few European tribes unconquered by the Romans at the time. In fact, they were allies. Read all about the Batavians.
HPL, of course the Dutch have personality! Why, we’re a delightfully quaint little people, known for being incredibly cheap, annoyingly arrogant, we think that the way our country is run is the best way to run any country (and have widely put this in practice in the past), we consider ourselves vastly superior because we’re so tolerant (well, now we are, sure) and liberal, and we are convinced we have the greatest football team in the world, which so far has only been proven true on paper, although we did win the 1988 European Championships.
So, if you ever feel yourself get pissed off by ridiculous prices, uppity foreigners, know-it-all Americans who don’t know crap about a decent drug policy, xenophobic and hence inferior foreigners who don’t share your elevated tolerance, or you feel all warm and tingly when you see an orange football jersey… you just might be Dutch. 
Most of my ancestors are Dutch, but that’s already been done (and I look nasty in orange), so I think I’ll claim my few Spanish ancestors and ask if I can be Grand Inquisitor!
… and invade your own room until William of Orange kicks you out.
Only if you want Coldfire to kick your ass for stealing his schtick.
I come from a long line of poor white trash. I guess that’s the reason I never get away with anything.
I’m half-English, half-Irish. Sooooo…I guess I just explode. bam
Band name!
How tragic. When so many prejudices and hatreds remain vibrant, the great tradition - born in England, finding new life in the fertile soil of America - of making fun of the Dutch has withered to the point of extinction.
There are…were…hundreds of expressions in English realting to the personality of the Dutch. Although to be honest, they’re so wide ranging, covering all the things people make fun of other people for, that it kind of comes down to “the Dutch suck”. …hmmm…maybe that means you don’t have a personality
Anyway, the remaining expressions are “Dutch courage” (you drink) “Dutch treat” (you’re cheap) and “Dutch wife” (err…you’re bad in bed?).
Hope that helps.
Woo! I’ve been “band named” 
Yeah, we drink, and we’re cheap. As for our women being bad in bed: my wife is American.
I feel so much pride in my Dutch Ancestry…what little of I have. sniff wipes a tear from his eye
It might stem from The Black Rage Defense in 1846 which was resurrected some 97 years later by Ron Kuby & Bill Kunstler in Colin Ferguson’s mass murder trial where he shot 25 commuters and killed 19.
Dayam Coldfire. How am I going to get the Coke off the keyboard now?
Damnit. What nationality is known for bad grammer?
Oh, it doesn’t matter. I’ll just blame it on the part of me that is french.
You know, I’m willing to bet that this is the giggliest infanticide-inspired thread ever.
If you are, I’ll be right behind you. hides
bamf
Okay, I gotta ask… what’s with the bamfing?
If who our ancestors are determines what should be expected of us today, then I should be expected to whine and wail and be waited on as was my ancestor King Nestor of Pylos.
Oh wait, I’ve never been royalty.
I’m figuring that this person who beat the kid to death was never a slave either, so why should severe beatings be so ingrained into his psyche?
If you have not read X-Men, you are not a whole person. Begone with you, halfman!
