Why do you call 'the' Netherlands?
I think you mean why you should you an article in front of the countries' name. If not, than this answer is not applicable. The complete Dutch term for their own country is "Koninkrijk der Nederlanden". Koninkrijk means kingdom, der means of and Nederlanden is word which consists of two words. The first word 'neder' is an old-fashioned word for low. 'Landen' means countries. Literally the name means Kingdom of the Low Countries. This name refers to the fact that the Netherlands is located on the lowest part of Northern Europe, some parts of the Netherlands are below sea level. It is obvious that you should use an article if the name would be The Low Countries, but since the English name is derived from the Dutch name the article is used with The Netherlands as well. In that respect it is comparable to The United States and The United Kindom English is not the only language which uses an article in the name. In French it is referred to as 'Les Pays-Bas' and in German it is 'Die Niederlande'.
