	IJsselmeer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The IJsselmeer (or Lake IJssel) is a shallow lake of some 1250 km² in the central Netherlands bordering the provinces of Flevoland, North Holland and Friesland, with an average depth of 5 to 6 m.
		The IJsselmeer was created in 1932 when an inland sea, the Zuiderzee, was closed by a 32 km dam, the Afsluitdijk.
		In 1975 the IJsselmeer was furthermore split in two by the completion of the Houtribdijk, now also called Markerwaarddijk, which runs from Enkhuizen southeast to Lelystad.

	Markermeer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Markermeer ("Lake Marken") is a 700 km² lake in the central Netherlands in between North Holland, Flevoland and its larger sibling, the IJsselmeer.
		It used to be part of the Zuiderzee, a salt water inlet of the North Sea, that was dammed off by the Afsluitdijk (Closure Dike) in 1932, turning the Zuiderzee into the fresh water IJsselmeer.
		Because of changing priorities and doubts about the financial feasibility, the Markerwaard was indefinitely postponed in the 1980s and the Markermeer has since begun to become a valuable ecological and recreational asset of its own.

	IJsselmeer
		The IJsselmeer (pronounced ICE-sil-mere) is the body of water that you see in the northern center of a map of the Netherlands.
		The Afsluitdijk, the dyke that cuts off the northern end of the IJsselmeer, is 30 kilometers long (about 21 miles.) Much of the land that once was waterfront (or just water) is now only bordered by canals, due to reclamation projects.
		Besides their ability to handle the shallow canals, the boats are wide almost from bow to stern, so there is undoubtedly lots of living space below and on deck.

		This section covers the IJsselmeer's western shore, the part that lies in Noord-Holland province.
		Only in Holland could you say, "This used to be a sea." The IJsselmeer actually was once a sea, until the Dutch decided they didn't want it to be one any longer, since it was always threatening to flood Amsterdam and other towns and villages along its low-lying coastline.
		In 1932, in an unparalleled feat of engineering, the North Sea was sealed off, from Noord-Holland to Friesland, by the 30km (19-mile) Afsluitdijk (Enclosing Dike), and the saltwater Zuiderzee became the freshwater IJsselmeer.

		Elizabeth flood of 1421 and the mismanagement in its aftermath destroyed a newly reclaimed polder, replacing it with the 72 square kilometres (28 sq mi) Biesbosch tidal floodplains in the south-centre.

		It became part of the larger Zuiderzee Works in which four polders totalling 1,650 square kilometres (637 sq mi) were reclaimed from the sea.
