That is OK! The word 'Dutch' has pretty much been assimilated into the English
language as another word to describe den Nederlanden. It is believed that the
actual word Deutsch was gradually corrupted into the substitute word 'Dutch'.
(And there was even a mob boss nick-named 'Dutch')
In addition, research has shown that many Rheinlanders and even Switzer folks
took a ride down-river on the Rhein and stayed in den Nederlanden until they
could arrange for passage on a ship to Penn's Wood. Many of these folks also were
eventually called 'Dutch'.
The 'Ryder' coins issued by some of the provinces of den Nederlanden are
interesting design. Heron owns a couple of these 'Ryders'. Just for fun.
