The Tulip Mania – The Great Dutch Economic Bubble

Tulips in the Netherlands are a national symbol and a major tourist attraction, especially during spring. This phenomenon reflects the rich history of tulips in Dutch economy and culture, dating back to the 17th century when "Tulip Mania" caused tulip prices to skyrocket.

People really cared about tulips that it's just a flower.

Stop making stuff up and spouting nonsene, not even a ripple in the Dutch econmy was established. Some speculators and growers got bankrupted, but the whole tulip thing was just rich and middle class people's play with homegrown tulip bulbs. The Dutch Republic simply kept doing more than half of all European trade in any goods and growing even richer.
