		On 28 Aug 1963 the municipal flag was adopted by municipal resolution.
		The County of Kuinre consisted of the present area of the Noordoostpolder, and the area between Weststellingwerf and Vollenhove.

	Zuiderzee Works
		The Noordoostpolder was considered to be sufficiently drained in September 1942 and the developmental process was then put in motion on the 480 km² of new land.
		At the heart of the Noordoostpolder, where the three main drainage canals intersect, is the town of Emmeloord (1943).
		More farming communities, similar to the Noordoostpolder, had originally been planned, but changing agricultural needs and increased motorised mobility meant many weren't necessary and thus their number was eventually reduced to just two, even though for one non-existent village, Larsen, building had been about to start when it was cancelled.

		The Noordoostpolder was drained between 1937 - 1942 by means of three pumping stations (Buma (1940) near Lemmer, Vissering (1942) near Urk, Smeenge (1941) near Voorst).
		The Noordoostpolder covers approximately 48,000 hectares, 24x20 kilometres, of which 37,000 hectares was reserved for agriculture and pasture-land, 2,000 hectares for forestation (between Lemmer and Kuinre and near De Voorst), 2,300 hectares for fruit and vegetable culture (near Marknesse, Luttelgeest and Kraggenburg) and 200 hectares for bulb-growing and cultivation under glass (near Ens).
		At the time, planting schemes for the layout of back gardens, for corner lots, for green belts, for the choice of hedges, trees, bushes and village woods were designed for the villages, with the exception of Nagele, as well as for the farm lots.

		When the Zuyder Zee was completely closed off in 1930 and the work to reclaim part of the resulting IJsselmeer had begun, it was clear that the remaining islands would be incorporated into the new polder (the island of Marken was eventually excluded).
		The polder's very orderly, geometrical parcelisation did not extend into the former island, which makes Schokland very easy to recognise both on the ground and from the air.
		Some villages in the Noordoostpolder have been given the names of villages on the former island.
