Holland is a provence...(State) in the Netherlands
We have 12 "States" North and South Holland are 2 of them.
Often Holland is being used because for some reason the Netherlands (which means The Lowlands) is too difficult.
Lowlands is because our country is below sea level....we have
"Dikes" to protect us from the Water.

Dutch are Nederlanders but since most can´t pronounce that
they have come up with Dutch...
And about the "Dikes" probably it´s spelled as Dykes...I dunno
there is this story that once a guy named "Hans" stuck his thumb
in a Dyke and save a whole city from drowning....
There was a hole in the Dyke....which makes sense offcourse
....a really wet hole that was
