Just kidding.. seriously, I don't know the relationship between, say "Holland", "The Netherlands" and "Dutch".

Would someone care to educate me on this? I think - Amsterdam is a city in Holland which is in The Netherlands where people are Dutch, and speak Dutch.

Or is The Netherlands a region in Holland?

Ok - I'm confused.

Thanks
The Netherlands is a kingdom. Holland is in the kingdom along with Aruba, Bonair and Curacao. They speak Dutch.
