Poortugaal
Poortugaal is a village (''dorp'') that is situated near the municipality of Rotterdam in the South Holland province of the Netherlands. Together with neighbouring Rhoon, Poortugaal forms the municipality of Albrandswaard. The village was first established in 15th century, following a royal land grant by the Spanish Netherlands to their local feudal vassals and supporters among the Dutch nobility. A Catholic church, a symbol of permanent settlements in the past, that dates to that period is found in the village centre. The origin of the name, ''Poortugaal'', and its presumed connection to the Kingdom of Portugal or the Portuguese is unclear. One theory links the similarity of Portugal's and Poortugaal's flags and coat of arms as an indication of local settlers' paying homage to fellow crusaders who were from Portugal. Older depictions of the coat of arms also show a shield that resembles the coat of arms of Portugal even more than the current coat of arms of Poortugaal. The ...

Sport is a physical activity or game, often competitive and organized, that maintains or improves physical ability and skills. Sport may provide enjoyment to participants and entertainment to spectators. The number of participants in a particular sport can vary from hundreds of people to a single individual.

Bergen Op Zoom
Bergen op Zoom (; called ''Berrege'' in the Brabantian dialect, local dialect) is a List of cities in the Netherlands by province, city and Municipalities of the Netherlands, municipality in southwestern Netherlands. It is located in the Provinces of the Netherlands, province of North Brabant, at the provincial border with Zeeland. In 2025, the municipality had a population of 70,216. Etymology The city was built on a site where two types of soil meet: sandy soil and marine clay. The sandy soil pushed against the marine clay, accumulating and forming hills over several centuries. People called those hills the ''Brabantse Wal'', literally meaning "ramparts of Brabant". ''Zoom'' refers to the border of these ramparts and ''bergen'' in Dutch means mountains or hills. The name has nothing to do with the little channel, the Zoom, which was later built through Bergen op Zoom. History Bergen op Zoom was granted City rights in the Low Countries, city status probably in 1212. In 128 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
