Respect man thanks!

True

True words indeed, and sadly also quite often forgotten. Best rgards

It's still an empire -slavery

a fun fact indeed

the VOC officially ended in 1799. with a debt of 120 million guilders. so I don't know where you got that information from?..but that's not!! right

Indeed The Voc ended with a horrible debt, but The Voc still holds the record of the biggest company ever. So in some ways we're both right

​@@arjenliewerink also know that the VOC tried (and failed) to make their own coin which was forbidden which probably assisted the downfall of the company.

it is right@@arjenliewerink

new york was a peas of the dutch empire its name is new amsterdam butt translated and new zee land to and more

Nieuw Amsterdam 🔛🔝🇳🇱🇺🇸

The Dutch invented the stock market around the same time we colonized the region of New York, which was called New Amsterdam back then. It is interesting that the modern hub of stock trading finds its it legacy in a former Dutch city, in the street that bears a Dutch name, getting rich with a Dutch invention. I love seeing many Dutch influences in US culture, It is a shame almost no one speaks Dutch there anymore, it would have given you the best arsenal of cursewords in the world. Best wishes from your Dutch allies, we have been since your war of independence and hopefully will be for at least as many years more.

​@@Neockoenthe part about the curse words is so true

@@Neockoen lol netherlands is still extremely rich, but nothing compared to before. a single company valued at 8 trillon dollars. insane

And Afrikaans is also very similar to Dutch

@@sebbasbaoz8314 yeah. Basically a twisted mess version of Dutch. Are you an Afrikaner?

@@camulodunon Nah I'm Dutch, but I just thought that if you're going to include Indonesia you should include Afrikaans as well

@@sebbasbaoz8314 yeah, true. BTW you guys speak English very well.

@@camulodunon Thanks!

i mean the french flag is based off of the dutch flag so it makes sense that they are similair

“Noooo prince’s flag racist!!! 😭😭😭”

@@daan2090 what

@@daan2090 Up to 1958 both the Prinsenvlag and Statenvlag were the official flag of the Netherlands. But more or less due to the use of the Prinsenvlag by the NSB (the Dutch nazi party), the Statenvlag was made the sole official flag of the Netherlands in 1958.

They turned the orange to red because they realized that the color red was more easy to see over sea

thx ik zocht zelf naar edits maar kon niks vinden dus maakte er zelf maar eentje

Nou het is je goed gelukt

I am german and I could read and understand your entire sentence, I think you said: Das ist der beste Niederlande Edit den ich je gesehen habe!

It's nice how close the german and dutch languages are to the point were I can literally read dutch without even speaking a single word of it

@@basedgermanguy we have German lessons in our school and i think it's a cool language. Yet i chose to drop it because your grammar rules are too hard. Der, die, das and male, female, neutral words ect. it's too much of a headache for me. Too bad i would've liked to be able to speak and write it. Reading and understanding it was the only thing i succeeded in.

jammer dat we dat nie bij rutte kunnen doen

YESSIRRR

And everybody thought that America was the first one…

Mmm, spain

@@amadeoideespana2917 no.

The Dutch were the first

Ik bedank mezelf altijd

@@ThebarestGuy goedzo

@@ThebarestGuyjo kan je ook een Nederlandse militaire edit maken maar vooral van de eerste en tweede wereldoorlog. Zelfs al is het van de NSB zou het toch vet zijn als edit (er zijn er niet veel veel dus vandaar, maar dat geldt voor bijna elk bedenkbaar nederlandse edit) en dan met phonk muziek ofzo erover en misschien een Nederlandstaligen speech erover heen bijvoorbeeld. Goeie edit 👌

And no it isn’t underrated. Portuguese empire was the most underrated empire. Not the Nederlands The Nederlands was a medium skilled empire.

Ma

sorry for civilising you

When we arrived you were a stone age civilization throwing rocks and spears. Killing and torturing oppositng tribes. When we left, you had guns and grenades. And you still resorted to killing and torturing opposing tribes. You are not better than any European "colonizers". You are worse. Same crimes, but minus the progression.

I wouldn’t call slavery and genocide “aesthetic.”

@kid named finger bodoh kau

the only thing we dutch guys should be proud of is the history. now its such a shit country

​@kid named finger Good day, I can just speak out my sincerest and utmost respect to people such as yourself. My Dutch great-uncle was in Indonesia as an engineer in the past (around the 60-70's), and he always loved it there, and so do many Dutch people even till today (at least these out of my family). He even married an Indonesian woman, who he met on one of his visits in Jakarta and brought her to the Netherlands, she always was really kind and great woman. I really respect the Indonesians, I never saw any other former colony that was as rational and reasonable as the Indonesians. I also admire your people's ambition and hard working mentality, it will bring Indonesia much in the future. According to many approximations, Indonesia will be as rich as Japan in relation to GDP (around 5 billion$ or maybe even more, in the end it is just an approximation) in the future, which is a great indicator for increasing wealth of the population and the development of a bigger economy. I have great hope for the Indonesian economy, as well as for the economy in the other Asian states. We will not have that much of economic growth here in Europe like the Asians, since we lost our spirit and ambition as well as because of other things. I just have made good experiences with Indonesians and also have much contact to an Indonesian girl, who is really nice. She sent me pictures of the picturesque beauty of the Indonesian nature and also of famous buildings like the Pagaruyung Palace or the Yogyakarta Palace and many more. I also plan to visit Indonesia after I completed my studies at university. My sincerest thanks to you, and I have to admit that your comment made me pretty happy. Best regards, and I wish you a splendid day.

@@jackjohnson424What do you mean by that, and why all in UPPERCASE.

what is your opinion on black people

He fucking looks it

may god bless you and have nice day

honestly, our current king is worthless. Constant scandals, doesn't do anything other than stamping new laws, visiting papers and being a freeloader in general. I'm quite sad we didn't abolish our monarchy yet since all they're doing is costing us money. And we have more and more woke people getting rid of our culture and traditions because they don't see the traditions as how they're actually meant to be viewed and because they don't bother looking at the history of it (such as Sinterklaas and Zwarte Piet)

The republic is the Dutch tradition, their whole identity was built around rebelling against the rightful king Philip von Habsburg and founding their republic, the monarchy is the new thing.

Dankje

Seríamos um país tão bom quanto o Suriname. Kkkkkkkkk

@@semnome.a não tenho certeza se seríamos bons, ou ruins, mas vale a pena pensar

@@semnome.a nahh, Suriname was neglected in favour of Indonesia because Suriname was basically just a slave colony. Brazil would've been much more favoured over Suriname and wouldve seen way more development. Also your natives would probably be still around more.

@@Blackdeathgaming-yv1kk Damn that last part is unfortunate. The safest parts are the majority white descent areas. So it would be like Peru or southern Mexico, shit-h0les in their own way.

@@error2511 Português aqui, não os nederlandeses iam literalmente cagar pra vossa existência em dois segundos, diz me lá tu, comparando com as outras posses territoriais que eles tinham neste "hipotético cenário" o norte do Brasil que era maioritariamente amazónia teria que utilidade comercial? Só madeira e cana de áçucar. Portugal no nosso mundo também cagou um bocado no Brasil durante três séculos e só se focou na colónia após perder grande parte das suas posses no sub continente indiano e asiático. Portanto não, o mais provável era os britânicos anexarem o Brasil depois das guerras napoleónicas e tornarem-se num domínio. A uníca diferença neste seria a constituição etníca do Brasil, pois Portugal sendo responsável por 50% da escravatura global ia levar o Brasil a ser mais indígena (não muito mais Europeu por que como dito antes os Nederlandeses iam se cagar para a colónia, é só ver o Suriname).

@@ThebarestGuy xD

thanks trump

Agreed, it takes away from what we actually achieved. We weren't traditional imperialists until the 19th century. Before that we were the ultimate trade empire with for a while the strongest and biggest navy with the best economy and being together with Portugal the first continental empire. We also revolutionised ground warfare during the 80 years war which was later developed further by Gustavos adolphus of Sweden that took most of his inspiration from the boys of orange and developed it further. Bigger isn't always better and that's why people tend to sleep on the Dutch empire but we were a true force to be reckoned with. But even though we didn't necessarily need it due to our natural defenses it wouldn't have been a bad idea if the Dutch also invested more in their ground forces back in the day. Also the fact that we survived rampjaar (1672) is prove enough of the strength of the Dutch. Basically a civil war while being invaded by britian, France, Cologne and Münster and being able to throw britian back into the sea and decimate their fleet while the leadership of the Netherlands gets killed and being able to hold half of our country against the invaders and a year later forming an anti French coalition with for example the HRE and even getting britian to agree to help against France while surviving rampjaar without any loss at all (except for the fact that the economy took a hit) is pretty damn impressive.

​​@@Blackdeathgaming-yv1kk You didnt decimate the Anglo-French fleet, no need to lie. You did defeat them, but you only sunk a few of their ships and that forced them to give up trying to invade by sea. So quit capping. Not to mention you ended up getting defeated and conquered by them in the 1790s

@@lollius88 who cares about the 1790s when talking about the 1670s? That's like talking about the French in ww1 and then saying yeah but you got occupied in the the 40s. Or talking about the franco prussian war but then saying that Germany lost both world wars.

@@Blackdeathgaming-yv1kk Agreed. Yet its a related idea and it for example prevents the French from saying that they are better than the Germans because they conquered them in 1806, when they got conquered by them in 1870 and 1940. So they are related ideas, and we shouldnt be pretending that the Dutch navy was crazy or sum, it wasnt. Their whole celebrated Chatham raid was only made possible by the poor financial state of the King who didnt want to ask Parliament for money and lose political power in return. And there were negotiations underway, when the raid happened. So it was kind of treacherous and cowardly in my humble opinion. Not to mention that in the next few decades, Britain eclipsed the Dutch and took their position as the number one maritime and trading power, not to mention humiliating them in the fourth anglo-dutch war whilst being at war with their American colonists, France and Spain

I personally use sony vegas 16, but I suggest you look up other applications that may fit you better. Also a warning: it might not be easy at start and getting "good" at editing will take some time but remember to never give up!
