get used to it... it's no use fighting geographical terminology. many dutch people would refer to your country just as "engeland" (england) when they actually mean all of britain or uk. bad luck for the scots and the welsh. in the same way many people used to call the soviet-union just russia.
but then again holland isn't the same as the netherlands either, and hardly anyone knows. bad luck for frysians or pretty much everyone living in the north, east and south of the country.
