No region is informally known as the Netherlands. You may be thinking of Holland. Holland is often incorrectly used to refer to the Netherlands.

Holland is a name in common usage given to a region in the western part of the Netherlands. The term Holland is also frequently used to refer to the whole of the Netherlands.
"Holland" is often incorrectly used to refer to the entire Netherlands, which is a country in Europe. However, "Holland" specifically refers to two provinces within the Netherlands: North Holland and South Holland. When looking at a map, you may not see "Holland" labeled because the correct term to use is "the Netherlands."
The Netherlands is, contrary to popular belief, not another name for Holland. Holland is in fact a region within the Netherlands but not even literally. You have northern Holland and southern Holland. Whilst the term is commonly used to refer to the whole country, this is incorrect and should be avoided.
