{{Further|New Holland (disambiguation){{!}}New Holland}}
The province of Holland gave its name to a number of colonial settlements and regions that were called ''Nieuw Holland'' or [[New Holland (disambiguation)|New Holland]]. The largest was the island continent presently known as [[Australia]]:<ref name="Van Dale"/> [[New Holland (Australia)|New Holland]] was first applied to Australia in 1644 by the Dutch seafarer [[Dirk Hartog]] as a [[Latin]] ''Nova Hollandia'', and remained in international use for 190 years. [[New Zealand]] was likewise named after the Dutch province of [[Zeeland|Zealand]], after an exploratory voyage lead by the Dutch explorer [[Abel Tasman]] landed there. In the Netherlands ''Nieuw Holland'' would remain the usual name of the continent until the end of the 19th century; it is now no longer in use there, the Dutch name today being ''Australië''.

While "Holland" has been replaced in English as the official name for the country of the Netherlands, many other languages use it or a variant of it to officially refer to the Netherlands. This is the case in Southeast Asia particularly [[languages of Indonesia|Indonesia]], [[languages of Malaysia#Other languages recognised as Native|Malaysia]], and [[Cambodia]] for example:
* [[Acehnese language|Acehnese]]: ''[[:ace:Blanda|Blanda]]''
* [[Banjar language|Banjar]]: ''[[:bjn:Walanda|Walanda]]''
* [[Banyumasan dialect|Banyumasan]]: ''[[:map-bms:Landa|Landa]]''
* [[Javanese language|Javanese]]: ''[[:jv:Walanda|Walanda]]''
* [[Malay language|Malay]] (including [[Indonesian language|Indonesian]] and [[Malaysian language|Malaysian]]<!--see: https://prpm.dbp.gov.my/cari1?keyword=belanda --> standards): ''[[:ms:Belanda|Belanda]]''
* [[Minangkabau language|Minangkabau]]: ''[[:min:Balando|Balando]]''
* [[Khmer language|Khmer]]: [[:km:ហុល្លង់|ហុល្លង់]]
* [[Thai language|Thai]]: [[:th:ฮอลแลนด์|ฮอลแลนด์]] (considered as another name for the Netherlands,<ref>{{cite web |title=พจนานุกรม ฉบับราชบัณฑิตยสถาน พ.ศ.๒๕๕๔ |url=https://dictionary.orst.go.th/}}</ref> also found in the name of [[Baan Hollanda]])
This is also the case in certain European languages:
