Which other empires could I do this for?

The Dutch Empire is like that kid that takes a bite out of everything but never completely eats it

"The Dutch ruled the cape colony briefly before losing it to the British."

You consider 150 years of Dutch rule, brief? That's about as long as the Brits ruled it. They only lost it because Napoleon occupied the Netherlands

*The day the Dutch find out you can grow spices in space*....

Every alien: Why do I smell stroopwafel en gebakken peren?

I'm from northeast Brazil the area the was in Dutch control for a while. A fun fact is that during Dutch rule they allowed the jewish religion here and many of the first portuguese settlers in this region were in fact sephardi jews (iberian jews) that were escaping inquisiton so they were allowed to build the first synagogue of the americas but after the portuguese retook the control those people had to convert to catholicism again but till this day many aspects of jewish culture can be found there and most people don't even realize that. For exemple would wash a corpse and bury them without a coffin among other things. Some of them left with the dutch and founded New York.

The Netherlands was never considered Central Europe, It’s just western...

Windmill production would rise tenfold.

When a country has spices
Netherlands: I'll TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK!

[pshagrid]

You basically missed the whole country of new-Zeeland which name comes from the Dutch province Zeeland

[stoneknight]

As a cicizen of the Western Cape from South Africa I would be happy for the dutch to take us back

[loekert]

When you said Madagascar 🇲🇬, didn’t you actually mean Maldives 🇲🇻? There was a circle ⭕️ on the map indicating the Asian archipelago

Imagine if the Netherlands had not given up ‘New Netherland’ (with New York aka New Amsterdam) in the Treaty of Breda after the Second Anglo Dutch war. The whole history of the United States would have probably been a lot different.

[damascus]

As someone who was born and raised in New Amsterdam, I am all for this.

[theothertonydutch]

Imagine if the dutch colonized Australia. Also, Tasmania is still named after a dutch guy: Abel Tasman was from Groningen, one of the northern provinces of the Netherlands.

Why wasnt Britain made part of the Netherlands, after king William lll became king of Scotland, Ireland and England.
