Yes, they are. But there are (many) differences in language and culture and in school systems etc. For example: The Dutch can 'immitate' the Flemish accent but the Flemish can't speak Dutch. They can't pronounce certain sounds used in the Dutch language (most people except Dutch people can't). And they have very different food and have different words.
