Morphology
Netherlandish = Netherland (transparent) = Netherland + ish
The form is built from the country name 'Netherland' plus the adjectival/demonym suffix '-ish', so the affiliation meaning is fairly clear.
Etymology
Netherlandish comes from Netherlands (with Nether 'lower' and land 'land') and the ending -ish can mean 'a person from', as in English for someone from England, so a Netherlandish is a person from the Netherlands.
