I found it odd why a nation in the British Commonwealth is named after a region in the Netherlands. Then one day I saw on the cover of a restaurant menu a picture of an old map which labels Australia as 'New Holland'. Which is why I am against the claim that Capt. James Cook as the man who discovered Australia.
