Province in the north-east of
the Netherlands. Originally called 'Groningen en Ommelanden',
referring to the city of Groningen and surrounding area, as the
province started as a territory ruled from the city of Groningen,
which itself was a settlement with Saxonians from Drenthe. The
area had until ca. 400 been populated by Frisians, whose territory
was cut in two by the Saxon colonization. The power of the city
prevented the true development of other towns, and to this day
the province has largely retained its agricultural character.
The province was given its current borders in 1814. Population
is mostly protestant. |
