I'm reasonably sure that that route neither begins nor ends in Holland. I think Holland is the western area of the Netherlands, not the northernmost bit.

13 hour drive that’s like Kansas pfff lol. At least it feels like 14 hours every time I drive across it

Now I want to know how long it would take to circumnavigate other countries and states in a leaderboard

Starting with Russia.

It's about twice the size of New Jersey ...

I mean if you take your time and cherry pick it, you might be able to touch 5 or six states in the trip.

Using texas as scale was funny, but you could fit that entirely in most states pretty easily.

In about a century it'll be quite a bit smaller than it is now, meaning that 13 hours it takes to drive the Nether- I mean Holland would become... I'm guessing 10 hours (I have no idea how to calculate stuff like this myself, so please downvote this comment if I'm too far away from the correct answer)

Smaller? We'll just have to re-annex some stubborn province to the south then. We don't do smaller.

So... Flanders becomes Dutch then?

If I managed to get Belgian citizenship right before that happens, will it get immediately invalidated and replaced with a Dutch citizenship? Or will I get to have both at the same time?
