The many Anglo-Dutch Wars of the past – Video inside!

Ango-Dutch war antics

So the Brits and the Dutch haven’t always been the best of friends. We have a bit of a crazy history of making up, breaking up and making up again. After some quick watching? This 3-minute video describes the Anglo-Dutch wars (yes, in just 3 minutes!) It’s pretty interesting too.

Pssssttt… Don’t forget to join our Facebook group for more Dutch stuff!

Accuracy, clarity, and a touch of humour — that’s DutchReview. Read our editorial mission.
