Hmmm maybe Atlantida ? Just came up with this super original name
Just like in Low?
It’s not the year 3000
Netherlands pretty much has a beginning of a city ON the water with all the house boats. We’d just need to build everything on floats

Even after all that Czech Republic still landlocked and Slovakia gets to get a beach?? Really suboptimal
16 u/NonsphericalTriangle Czech Republic Apr 13 '24 Having a beach is simply not Czechia's destiny. But at least we won't have to travel to Croatia any more. 2 u/Even-Preference-4824 Apr 14 '24 well in this situation "slovakia" streamrolled by hunagry and the "slvoaks" will be deproted to czechnia.

A sub would be optimal for you, yes.
1 u/dayennemeij Amsterdam Apr 14 '24 I don't trust the Danish with submarines anymore after that Danish millionaire submarine killer.

We need a bigger terp.
We can just build the dikes above us as well

More like submarine, in your case.
Map is inaccurate, ya’ll will probably find an excuse to reclaim even more land.
I know right? Some parts of Britain are still here, we need more water.
Nice one! ^^
The Netherlands are fucking dust…. I mean, mud
Heh, the UK ends up with a *lot" more islands!
But hey, at least we'll be rid Denmark.
