[8-28-2022] Microsoft Rewards Bing Homepage Quiz Question: These bearded reedlings are enjoying the wetlands of Flevoland, a province in which country?

The given options are:

  • Flevo Country
  • Finland
  • Netherlands

Correct Answer: Netherlands

Info: Flevoland, the 12th and newest province in the Netherlands, has only been around since 1986, when the Southern and Eastern Flevopolders and the Noordoostpolder were merged into one provincial entity. Not only was it not established until this late date, but before the mid-20th century, much of the land here simply didn’t exist. Flevoland was created through vast land reclamation projects in the 1950s and ’60s while splitting the Markermeer and Bordering lakes from the IJsselmeer. The province has a population of 423,021 as of January 2020 and comprises six municipalities. Its capital is Lelystad, and its most populous city is Almere. Flevoland was named after Lacus Flevo, a name recorded in Roman sources for a large inland lake at the southern end of the later-formed Zuiderzee. (Ref)
