Name (English): Florens II. von Holland
Short name: Floris II, Count of Holland
Year of birth: 1091
Year of death: 1122
Short Description: "Floris II, Count of Holland (or Floris the Fat) (born ca. 1085 in Vlaardingen, Netherlands; reigned 1091 – March 2, 1121) was the first from the native dynasty of Holland to be called Count of Holland.

He was the son of his predecessor Dirk V and Othilde. Floris II ended the conflict with the Bishop of Utrecht (which he inherited from his father, and should be seen in light of the power struggle between the Pope and the Holy Roman Emperor), most likely by becoming his vassal. In 1101 he was endowed with the title of Count of Holland by the bishop of Utrecht, after acquiring Rhineland (Leiden and surroundings) ('comes de Hollant', up until that time the counts' dominion had been officially referred to as Frisia)." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.08.2021)
