What went wrong?

What do you mean?
>>56527861
Everything that is wrong in the Netherlands rn is Belgiums fault. I'm not even kidding.
What went right?
Are Dutch the alternative jews?
>>56527861
birthplace of modern cuckolding
>>56528633
Yes we are a special breed of sea Jews.
>>56528633
Yes, toe bie hoonest. We didn't want a single strong Baltic sea-bordering nation so we secretley funded Denmark so they could stand a chance against Sweden. We also prevented Sweden from creating the state of Scandinavia (this was Charles's actual plans, no kidding) in 1658 by helping Denmark.
We also literally were the wealthiest nation on earth, not because of jew gold though.

They thought they were expert colonists and got btfo by Britain

The Dutch destroyed their own power by doing this

>>56528764
Britain stole you when we were annexed by France, doesn't count t.bh.
Britain warred us 3 times in a row and lost all 3 times, even when they were allied with the French. We boated straight to Medway and stole there biggest ship. And we became their king.
Also how is it in ex-Transvaal.
Anglos shitting on the plate, as usual.
>>56528806
Union should've been longer t.bh, and merged a couple years later. Willem III should've pushed for his heir.
>>56528825
>And we became their king.
And at the same time transferred the real power to the English Parliament, making England a true constitutional monarchy and the King progressively more irrelevant
>>56528825
Since Britain took over, the Netherlands chickened out and left the local boers to fend for themselves and form irrelevant republics (which the British eventually took control of). The Dutch literally couldn't handle Africa after the late 1700s

The decline of the Dutch Republic[edit]
Having England as an ally meant that the military situation of the Republic was strongly improved, but this very fact induced William to be uncompromising in his position towards France. This policy led to a large number of very expensive campaigns which were largely paid for with Dutch funds. In 1712 the Republic was financially exhausted; it withdrew from international politics and was forced to let its fleet deteriorate, making what was by then the Kingdom of Great Britain the dominant maritime power of the world. The Dutch economy, already burdened by the high national debt and concomitant high taxation, suffered from the other European states' protectionist policies, which its weakened fleet was no longer able to resist. To make matters worse, the main Dutch trading and banking houses moved much of their activity from Amsterdam to London after 1688. Between 1688 and 1720, world trade dominance shifted from the Republic to Britain.[93]
Cry evertim
The amount of Muslims there
Seriously I think they have a higher percentage of Muslims than France
>>56529106
Definetly not. At least we do a little better job at integration than Belgium and France, so we don't have people running around blowing themselves up as much.

Well, if you can't handle Africa at its worst...
>>56529149
Stop talking shit Abdul.
>Dutch people can't drink regular sized beers or their country would flood
>>56529531
>swedish people can't drink any alcoholic drink or they'd get their hands cut by local sharia enforcers
>>56529531
at least they don't have to take out an extra mortgage to pay for one, only to find out its non alcoholic by shariah law
>>56529627
>Italians can't eat pasta without having a poor irrelevant country
>>56527861
Dutch people are pretty ok
also, considering how tiny their nation is, its surprising how god tier they were at global trade and anything with boats
I really like Netherlands
:*
plz be more capitalist
plz
enough of this socialdemocrat crap and greens shit
>>56529838
wtf Mr Ustashe, we have a economical rightwing conservative party now. We aren't socialdemocrat.
Everytime a leftwinger gets voted in as prime minister they fuck everything up and people don't vote leftwing for another 15 years.
>>56529923
>Mr. Ustasha*
I mean cut most of your generous safety net to get rid of trash
cut taxes and deregulate
be rich and cut-throat
be dutch
right-win left-wing is silly, add additional axis - authoritarian or anarchy
>>56529249
Anyone with common sense would know that Africa was much easier to carve up back then as it is now with the awareness of African independence
>>56528978
We were literally ruled by France at that time.
>>56530358
The UK took South Africa to prevent it from falling in French hands.
>>56530246
Right you are Mr. Boer
Hope they don't treat you too poorly in your white ghetto
>>56530487
He probably isn't even Boer, Boers are cool af
>>56529755
>swedish banter
I guess that's haram too
>>56530398
I'd rather have the Dutch than the French desu
>>56530541
Anglos are cooler. We stayed in the colonial game until it went out of fashion. Boers and Anglos work together these days
>>56530683
You know Indonesia stayed with us until WW2.
The Japanese invaded Indonesia when we were occupied by Nazi Germany.
They basically gave Indonesia away just like the French gave South Africa away.
Suriname became independent in 1975.
Our Caribbean Islands are still with us.
>>56530916
I'm a bit triggered about how lopsided that war of independence was
Yet they still got independent
And later invaded land that wasn't theirs for oil
>>56530916
Not that this has any relevance to Indonesia and their scenario, but SA was never a French territory. They sent hugenot settlers to boost the potential wine industry but Britain annexed the Cape before anyone else could take it
>>56527861
Delet this.
Leave the Netherlands alone, or Imma fuck you up bitch nigga.
