![]() | The Dutch Republic A short movie of the glorious time of our little country. from around 1600 till 1750 we had the largest merchant fleet in the whole world, in fact 50% of all ships in the world were Dutch at that time. ofcourse there were very jealous countries. so we had to defend our selfs with one of the most powerfull navies in the world. the timeline of Kingdom of the Netherlands is wrong it needs to be 1806 - 2008. this movie is not exactly history accurate, but much better as this one http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=02ReUjZnkUQ i told this fella many times that Oliver Cromwell is not Dutch. but this ''Anton'' doesn't want to see the truth and just deletes my posts. anyway have fun with my movie XD |

![]() | Wien Neêrlands Bloed - Historical Dutch Anthem Wien Neerlands bloed (To those in whom Dutch blood) was the national anthem of the Netherlands between 1815 and 1932; At the foundation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in 1815, it was decided that a national anthem was needed. The hymn Wilhelmus van Nassau -- which is the national anthem today and functioned as an unofficial anthem during the time of the Dutch Republic -- had not been popular in the late 18th century with the Patriot party, as it glorified the House of Orange. In 1815 it was decided to make a fresh start and adopt a politically neutral hymn, that might also be acceptable to the Catholic inhabitants of the Southern Netherlands with which the Dutch were united in 1815 to form the United Kingdom of the Netherlands; the Wilhelmus might be interpreted as expressing Calvinist sentiments. A competition was organized which was won by the Dutch poet Hendrik Tollens (1780-1856) with his composition Wien Neerlands Bloet, which was set to music by Johann Wilhelm Wilms (1772-1847), a German expatriate living in Amsterdam. Despite the adoption of the new anthem Het Wilhelmus remained popular and was played at the investiture of Queen Wilhelmina in 1898. Wien Neerlands bloed was officially replaced by Het Wilhelmus on 10 May 1932, though it remained in use by the Royal Netherlands Navy and Army until 1939. |

![]() | NATIONAL ANTHEM OF Republic of the Orange Free State The Republic of the Orange Free State (Afrikaans: Oranje-Vrystaat) was an independent Boer state in southern Africa during the second half of the 19th century, and later a province in South Africa. It is the historical precursor to the present-day Free State province. Extending between the Orange and Vaal rivers, its borders were determined by the United Kingdom in 1848 when the region was proclaimed as the Orange River Sovereignty, with a seat of a British Resident in Bloemfontein. In the northern part of the territory a Voortrekker Republic was established at Winburg in 1837. This state merged with the Republic of Potchefstroom which later formed part of the South African Republic (Transvaal Republic). Following the granting of independence to the Transvaal Republic, the British recognized the independence of the Orange Free State on 17 February 1854 and the country officially became independent on 23 February 1854, with the signing of the Orange River Convention. The Republic immediately came into being effectively incorporating both the Orange River Sovereignty and the traditions of the Winburg-Potchefstroom Republic. Although the Orange Free State developed into a politically and economically successful republic, it experienced chronic conflict with the British (see the Boer Wars) until it was finally annexed as the Orange River Colony in 1900. It ceased to exist as an independent Boer republic on 31 May 1902 with the signing of the Vereeniging Treaty at the conclusion of the Second Anglo-Boer War. It joined the Union of South Africa in 1910 (which later became the Republic of South Africa in 1961) as a province along with the Cape, Natal, and the Transvaal — the other conquered Boer republic. The republic's name derives partly from the Orange River (just as the Transvaal Republic was named after the Vaal River), but both names were bestowed by the Dutch Protestant settlers in honour of the Dutch ruling family, the House of Orange. |
