DutchStef: Copenhagen; Holland is to the Netherlands as England is to Great Britain; Belgium is 179 years old, and I may be wrong on part of the last question, but I believe it's Holland and Great Britain.
LouBelle, I didn't mean to make you mad. I was only teasing you. Forgive me? Friends?

I have to say we used to get so pissed off over here that all the societys literature was full of American spellings and many a turn of phrase we would never use.
Four pages on this thread and no one mentioned the misspelling in this sentence. lol

Societies, verified by my dictionary.
I think it was supposed to be possessive, not plural.

Good point on the plural. Still it doesn't look right. Maybe it should be society' ? I'll have to investigate.

It should read: society's. As it is referring to the one society, not more than one.

Yes, singular possessive.
