THE LAND

NEW GROUND
The Zuiderzee Act was adopted on 14 June 1918.
As a result of this law, 200,000 hectares of new land was created. People from all over the Netherlands started a new life in the Polder, they all brought their own language, traditions and customs. 50 years later, how do these pioneers look back on building the polder?
