In 1672 Louis XIV of France saw that the Dutch were busy with internal struggles and saw them as ripe pickings. Let’s find out if he was right or not!

I love your videos. Bedankt!
2:46 I laughed way harder at this that I should have
Awesome video!
Love the artstyle, severely underrated channel!
This might be my favourite subject you covered so far!
Super gedetailleerde video zoals altijd weer, met nadruk op het kaartenwerk deze aflevering. Op dat gebied kan ik zeker de Bosatlas van de geschiedenis van Nederland aanraden, die zit bomvol met dit soort historische kaarten van Nederland en natuurlijk Friesland inbegrepen. Nogal prijzig maar hopelijk beschikbaar in de plaatselijke bieb. Ga zo door!
Moin! I just wanted to say that your videos are really great, especially your Frisian series. As an Eastfrisian it's very interesting to learn more about you guys from the west :D. Also I know that your presenting Frisian history from a "West"frisian perspective, but I was wondering if you're going to cover the Prussian annexation of Eastfrisia in 1744. In my opinion, it's kind of the event that made us truly diverge from you guys and if I remember correctly, our estates actually wanted for us to be annexed by the Netherlands instead. In any case: Greetings from your eastern cousins and Eala Frya Fresena 😀
Weer een zeer nette aflevering! Vraag: waarom is op 22:30 Ameland niet ingekleurd?
Waanzinnig!
Dikke video man! Waarom is Deventer anders gekleurd dan de rest van Overijssel op bijvoorbeeld 10:58?
GEKOLONISEERD
Lyk my ou Jan van Riebeeck het net betyds Suid-Afrika toe gekom😂 dank die Vader, anders was ek nie vandag hier nie.
Underrated channel and history creators are always gigachads
Mooi man!
Love the video.
It should be mentioned though that De Witt never wanted to brake his alliance with France. He was forced into the Triple Alliance by the Orangists. He new he couldn't trust Sweden and England.
Also, the Dutch Republic wasn't economically ruined. That would be caused by the Nine Years War (1688-97) and War of the Spanish Succession (1702-1713). Most parties where economically ruined by those wars. Would be cool if you covered them sometime
Zowel de fransen als de hollanders hebben Brabant en Limburg geplunderd en misbruikt. En zowel de fransen als de hollanders hebben nooit spijt betuigd, nog financiële compensatie aangeboden.
Les français et les hollandais ont pillé et abusé du Brabant et du Limbourg. Et ni les français ni les hollandais n’ont jamais exprimé de regret ni proposé de compensation financière.
