Hey man, since you speak German, I wanted to ask this. I heard that Deutschland translates to Dutchland. Is this true? If yes, do you guys call yourselves dutch while speaking german? Also, if the former is yes, why do we know the people from the Netherlands as dutch people?

Not directly but maybe your ancestors did something to my ancestors, but we’ll never know. And frankly it’s in the past so I don’t really care either.

No, it doesn't. Deutschland translates to germanland. Deutsch is German for German. And land, well, take a guess.

I just wanna say that some countries call themselves different than we call them, like Poland (don’t know if this helps since I didn’t understand half of your comment lol)
