Accidentally came for a quick history of Neanderthals, stayed for the Netherlands.

Fantastic to see the Netherlands survive hard times while they tip toed through the tulips of history.

Next is Australia’s bizarre neighbor and land of the Maori and the Kiwis… New Zealand! 🇳🇿

If videos like this were around in the 90s -08 I missed them. Would've been nice to actually like history back then the way I do now

[jakoboka]

Looked forward to finally see my own country come by. Great video as usual and even learned a lot I didn't know myselve!

Well done mini-doco. The Netherlands is the model country for the coming times. _Autonomy_ will become the key term for social and political organization as the world evolves from globalism into localist cooperation. Small countries are free and happy, but vulnerable to invasion and hegemony. This will be the political problem to solve in the coming age. Netherlands will be the case study in the question for long-lasting solutions.

Hello everyone and welcome to DR BEES.

Such great content! Funny, too.
Thank you for your work Mr History.

It’s amazing - you give great facts, unjudgemental, concise and rather humorous :)

0:13 | This is not the reason. The Netherlands (meaning the entire Low Countries) were the Lower Lands of the Burgundian state, while the Duchy and the Free State of Burgundy were the Upper Lands, that's why the Netherlands are called »the Netherlands« 🦁🇳🇱🔶

Im pretty sure the celts settled in Netherlands much later than germanic tribes, I’m pretty sure Germanic tribes had settled in Netherlands since at least 800 BC and celts in like 500 BC

The language most closely related to English is Frisian.

The people that had to take land back from the sea. Badasses

Didn't expect a weed joke so soon in the video

[jesperdenbraven]

Nice video, would have liked to see our last victory over the sea tough. With the waterworks and reclaiming a new province of land

[shauryabindal]

Please make a video on the history of poland

[bennorwood]

What country is next so I might add some contribute to The next video sorry for my spelling and word pronouncing

[sevenprovinces]

Oh wow, I was pre-emptively cynical, preparing to post corrections as there is so much nonsense floating around these days about history in general and Dutch history in particular. But all of this was accurate yet concise. Very well done!
