Netherlands
The Netherlands is renowned for its exceptionally flat terrain, with approximately 26% of its land lying below sea level. This low-lying landscape is characterized by extensive polders—tracts of land reclaimed from the sea and protected by an intricate system of dikes and canals. The western coastline is lined with sand dunes that serve as natural barriers against the North Sea. In contrast, the southeastern region near the town of Vaals features the Vaalserberg, the country's highest point at 322.7 meters (1,059 feet) above sea level. Overall, the Dutch landscape is predominantly flat, interspersed with these modest elevations and shaped significantly by human intervention to manage and reclaim land from water.
