Flevoland

The entire area of the Dutch province of Flevoland used to lie on the bottom of the sea before 1930.

Flevoland now has over 1,400 km² of land and over 400,000 inhabitants.

The Flevopolder, the southern island of Flevoland, is the biggest artificial island in the world with an area of 970 km².

Flevoland is the youngest province of the Netherlands. It was created by turning parts of the former sea called 'De Zuiderzee' into dry land, with in there the former islands of Urk and Schokland.
