  The Amish are not the ones who call it Dutch Country -- it was the
  English who corrupted the word Deutsch (i.e. German).   The Amish are
  not exactly what I would call religious fanatics, but they do
  certainly have a way of life out of the modern mainstream.


  If you want to read a little about them, you could start with
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_Dutch_Country
  and Google from there.
