really hard with some countries, I won't even start with Slovakia, with Switzerland I only got as far as 'Hugo Boss, William Tell, Toblerone' - I had to leave out Swiss Roll not because it's not a person but because it's already got the word Swiss in it. For the Netherlands I'll go 'Johan Cruyff, Golden Earring, Fanny Blankers Cohen, Urban Cookie Collective, Rutger Hauer, Van der Valk' ... your boys etc etc. Any suggestions for Spain? Must include Sylvia (singer of Viva Espana) imho

Does pride not come before a fall? Back to the Netherlands, how could the OP have forgotten the little Dutch boy who put his finger in a dyke?
