County of Holland : ウィキペディア英語版 | County of Holland
The County of Holland was a State of the Holy Roman Empire and from 1482 up to 1581 part of the Habsburg Netherlands. From 1581 onward, Holland was the leading province of the Dutch Republic, of which it remained a part until the Batavian Revolution in 1795. The territory of the County of Holland corresponds roughly with the current provinces of North and South Holland in the Netherlands. ==Etymology== The oldest sources refer to the not clearly defined county as ''Frisia'', west of the Vlie. Before 1101, sources talk about Frisian counts, but in this year Floris II, Count of Holland is mentioned as ''Florentius comes de Hollant'' (Floris, Count of Holland). Holland is probably Old Dutch for ''holt lant'', literally "wood land," describing the district around Dordrecht, the nucleus of Holland.〔http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=Holland〕 The counts of Holland generally kept to this single title until 1291, when Floris V, Count of Holland decided to call himself ''Count of Holland and Zeeland, lord of Friesland''. This title was also used after Holland was united with Hainault, Bavaria-Straubing, and the Duchy of Burgundy. The titles eventually lost their importance, and the last count, Philip II of Spain, only mentioned them halfway through his long list of titles.
