Satellite map of Betuwe

The Betuwe (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈbeːtywə]) (from batawjō, "good island", from Germanic bat- "good, excellent" and awjō "island, land near water") is an area in the Dutch province Gelderland. Tacitus knew it as Insula Batavorum ("Island of the Batavians," the Germanic tribe from which the modern name is derived) and indeed it could be considered a large river island, but nowadays it hardly ever is viewed as such (with the exception of the last months of World War II (October 1944 - June 1945) when it became known as "Men's Island" or "Manneneiland" due to the evacuation of all civilian population during Operation Market Garden, leaving only soldiers behind).
