Chapter 132: The Dutch Are a-Stirring Stick (Part I)

The travelers were actually lucky that they came to the 17th century, and it happened to be the middle of the 17th century, not sooner or later, everything was too suitable for them. Especially if you can meet the Dutch directly.

But many traversers don't realize it, let's talk about this slowly.

From the beginning of the 16th century to the middle of the 16th century, the Netherlands belonged to the Habsburg Empire, under Spanish rule, and enjoyed a happy life in a feudal socialist family.

But the absolutist policies successively implemented by King Charles I and Philip II of Spain are not tyrannical, they are just overtaxing, restricting the flow of people, and restricting the scale of production in their workshops.

However, the Dutch liberal economic class and all strata felt that this seriously undermined their interests and hindered the further development of the liberal economy, which provoked a fierce revolt, and finally the Dutch liberal economic revolution broke out in 1566. It's a small sample, I really have the spirit of resistance, and I can't bear it at all.

After a long period of struggle, the northern Netherlands won the struggle to establish the United Provincial Republic, the Dutch Republic, and in 1609 to force the King of Spain to sign an armistice.

For this bold behavior of taking the evil road of the bourgeoisie, many traversers are filled with righteous indignation, and the more they think about it, the more angry they become!

They roared on their own forums:

I would rather have the grass of feudal socialism than the seedlings of capitalism!

An armistice is a declaration of war for the next war!

Resolutely oppose the evil path of capitalist liberalization, and we must help the Kingdom of Spain to regain lost territory!

Sovereignty is greater than human rights, and the right to life is greater than human rights!

Everywhere under the Wi-Fi coverage of the city of Geranza, the travelers organized various forums and expressed various opinions and suggestions on the BBS.

Freedom of speech, the listener is at his own convenience. It's not okay to scold people, there's no way, everyone is real-name.

Sorry I digress and move on to the Dutch.

The Dutch have never shielded their own people, saying that the outside world is full of turmoil, poverty, natural disasters, etc., on the contrary, these unfortunate things actually encourage their citizens to get out of the country—out of the country, out of the world, out of the world, and find a way out for themselves!

Beginning in the 17th century, the Dutch came to Asia in this way and opened up trade between Eurasia and the Far East.

They are not alone, that is the characteristic of a certain people. They were developed by the Dutch East India Company, and planned and organized colonization or trade.

This company was founded in 1602. It is a cooperative investment agency of Dutch city business organizations. The Netherlands granted it a monopoly on the transportation of goods in Asia. And give it the power to participate in trade agreements in its own name, to maintain diplomatic relations, to make laws, to organize an army, and so on. The power is very great.

This company is not run by the agents of the powerful. The joint-stock system of the Eight Classics has been corrected.

The Dutch East India Company, with its advanced seafaring skills and flexible trading methods, successfully established itself in the Asian market in the early days of the Far East trade.

Of course, they have also been practicing as second-tier dealers in Europe for a long time, and it is not easy to go back and forth between Northern Europe and Southern Europe. Therefore, it is by no means that they are inherently intelligent, nor do they have any excellent cultural traditions, nor are they wise leaders.

The ocean has broadened their horizons, and long-distance traffic has tempered their courage!

After their bold arrival in Asia, the Dutch East India Company established a vast trade network centered on Batavia.

The Dutch were really capable at that time. I'll give you a copy of the material, which I pasted and copied.

In 1605, the Dutch East India Company first drove out the Portuguese from the Maluku Islands by force, and then in 1623 drove out the English from Banda Island, essentially monopolizing the spice source.

In 1609, the Dutch Indian Company set up a trading house in Hirado, Japan, to compete with the Portuguese for trade with Japan.

In 1619, the Dutch and Indian companies seized Batavia from the Javanese near the Sunda Strait, the only non-Portuguese control between the Indian and South China Seas, and built a castle to serve as the headquarters of the Dutch and Indian companies.

In 1641, the Dutch conquered Malacca, a strong Portuguese stronghold, and established a monopoly from the spice producing area of Southeast Asia to the trading port.

This East India Company was a real success. Goods such as spices, gold, ivory, silk, porcelain and cane sugar from Asia filled the warehouses in Amsterdam.

They also became the largest trading and transportation enterprises in the world at that time.

If, I'm talking about the arrival of the traversers, over the next two hundred years, the Dutch East India Company would have transported more than a million people from Europe to Asia, and its trade activities would have stretched from the Red Sea to Japan. Successfully complete the expansion of a nation and a country, so that the descendants of their nation have the opportunity to have the highest average height in the world! And there's a chance to apologize to the colonies!

The kid has always thought that the descendants of his own nation should go and say to others, I'm sorry, it's the ancestors who are sorry for you.

It's a better feeling than asking someone to confess, don't you think?

As a point of mention, I'm still going to ask for some water. A friend once said that in Japan, if you said that you went to university in the Netherlands, the Japanese people would definitely look at it with admiration.

The impact is visible.

The historical-stirring stick of the Netherlands is too disgusting to the traversers, who, in countless deductions, have found that in the process of bourgeois development, the Netherlands always flashes its own dirty shadow - too annoying.

The Dutch invented several things that played a very important role in the history of science and technology, one is the telescope, after Galileo heard that the Netherlands invented the telescope, he also built a telescope to observe celestial bodies, it is this behavior from the perspective of observation to prove Copernicus's doctrine, for modern science to break through the shackles of religion to find evidence.

It's fucking macrocosm!

In 1650, the Dutch scientist Wenhoek modified the microscope to increase the magnification to 270 times, and since then, human beings have entered the world of microorganisms and cells.

It's fucking microcosm!

Later in the history of science, with each advance in telescopes and microscopes, many new discoveries were made. Since then, the power of technological invention has begun to push the big wheel of science forward, and the emergence of new processes and new scientific instruments has expanded the horizons of mankind. Science and technology gradually merged, and the large-scale introduction of scientific knowledge and scientific methods into the field of technology triggered the Industrial Revolution, which brought mankind into modern society.

Our ancestors were saddened—

Well, these are only instrumental views, not subject issues.

The most infuriating thing is that these Dutch are still promoting their Protestantism everywhere!

Countries where people believe in Catholicism are more tranquil, more harmonious, and more romantic.

Solidarity under the leadership of the Pope is to seriously experience the Lord's grace at birth, sickness, marriage, death, choosing the direction of life, and whether or not to become a monk, to establish an intimate relationship with the Lord, and to live life more abundantly through the many sacraments.

Monastery, convent, convent, let those young people dedicate their youth to the Lord, and obey the Pope's command! How good is that?!

But what about the Dutch? He emphasizes the "direct" relationship between the individual and God, believing that the confession, prayer, devotional, or meditation of the individual can establish a direct relationship with God without much external rituals, and the result is only baptism and communion, and some also include marriage ceremonies, and other sacraments have long been lost.

The Dutch have destroyed the cultural heritage!

Your sister dared to have the shadow of personal liberation so early, and the traverser must resolutely nip them in the bud!

As long as the travelers think of Spain, Portugal, Canada and other countries that believed in Catholicism in later generations, and compare them with those countries such as Citigroup that believed in Protestantism, they are not angry.

Your sister's! You have liberated yourself, what will happen to our children and grandchildren!

Resolutely suppress Protestantism! Let them return to the bosom of Catholicism!

We heard some of the time-travelers screaming on the forums and realized that it was getting bigger and bigger.

Successive rulers disliked merchants because they always spoke with their feet and were particularly good at running away.
