There is a place in Europe where the lowest point of the land sits almost 7 meters below the average sea level. Rivers arriving from across the continent converge here before reaching the North Sea, while entire neighborhoods and farmland occupy ground that has been deliberately drained and controlled.
Even more extraordinary, some of this land did not exist in its present form a few generations ago. Engineers enclosed stretches of water, pumped them dry, and turned the exposed seabed into roads, farms and entire communities.
This is the Netherlands.
