Dams built in Holland are commonly referred to as "dijken" (dikes) and "dammen" (dams). The Netherlands is known for its extensive system of dikes and dams, which are crucial for flood protection and land reclamation. The most famous of these is the Afsluitdijk, which separates the IJsselmeer from the Wadden Sea. These structures play a vital role in managing water levels and protecting the low-lying country from the sea.
