The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Natural sand dunes and constructed dikes, dams, and floodgates provide defense against storm surges from the sea.
- River dikes prevent flooding from water flowing into the country by the major rivers Rhine and Meuse, while a complicated system of drainage ditches, canals, and pumping stations keep the low-lying parts dry for habitation and agriculture.
- Water control boards are the independent local government bodies responsible for maintaining this system.
