- -History:
_Tijl Uilenspiegel_
Tijl Uilenspiegel is a character from Flemish, dutch and German folklore. The origins aren't very well known but he first appeared in central Germany somewhere around 1300 A.D but under the name of "Dil Ulenspiegel".
It is interesting how the Tijl Uilenspiegel re-appeared first in Flanders during the protestant reformation. He was back than seen as the supposed "proctor of the Protestant reformation" of the low countries. As you might already know, Flanders isn't majorly protestant today, but this wan't allways the case.
_The reformation in the low countries_
One of the places where the reformation started spreading early and rapidly, especially Calvinism, was in the low countries. Back at the time, most of the low countries were ruled by the Habsburg Spanish who brutally enforced Catholisism in the erea. This ofcourse sparked resentment among the Dutch reformed population. So as a protest the "beeldenstorm" or in English: " statue storm" in 1566 took place where Protestant dutch people would plunder and destroy Catholic churches and it's relics, stues and paintings. More notably the statues wich were one by one ripped off their pedastals and church walls. The beeldenstorm started in west Flanders but rapidly made it's way up to the North to places like Frisia and Groningen.
_Reformation and the 80 years war_
The 80 years war was a war where the dutch broke free from the Spanish. The beeldenstorm and reformation were 2 of the most crucial (but not only) reasons for the 80 years war to take place. the northern part of the low countries managed to brake free from the Spanish. However the Southern parts did not. After the proclaimation of the dutch republic, many people from the southern netherlands migrated to the Northern parts to avoid the atrocious Spanish persecution of Protestants.
_The message behind the song_
In the song, Tijl Uilenspiegel in a way respresents the protestants of Flanders and Brabant who were unable to break free from Spanish persecution and so had to suffer until either way all of them migrated out or were excecuted. The song tries to emply that throughout the ages, the persecuted protestants were underrepresented in history wich is why it states that Flanders is breaking the soul of Tijl Uilenspiegel as he represents the protestants in this song.

Prachtig lied van mijn Brabantse kameraden! groeten uit Vlaend'ren!
Oh my god the flagmaps, it must've taken you so long
Yea I'd rather not say how long it took me lol
Although I am a Catholic of Dutch and German descent (Zuid-Holtlandt and Bayern) I appreciate this song.
Yes I am also a bayischwire catholic
@@lountszettkazeiyted Hurrah to you my Bayerische Katholic brüder.
@@lukefriesenhahn8186 Ahah Yes many thanks urah you aswell my brüder
Thanks my friend, this connects us. Germany, Flanders, Netherlands
BRABANT
It’s crazy how well the dialects along the lower Rhine sound alike, the words are almost the same as in the cologne dialect
ha! wat een nummer, met een interessant verhaal erachter ook nog! bedankt voor deze post
I am catholic myself from Poland, but damm, this song hits hard, ngl I would listen to this song, but only music(instruments playing), I think tgat it would be great as well.
Noo i missed the notification ): (and great map you found, it's literally the Benelux lol)
I actually make all the maps myself including this one🙃
ohh cool@@novabrabantia
Ngl, this sounds kinda creepy.
Wait, Belgians know of Till Eulenspiegel?? Although in German folklore, he's born near Brunswick, Lower Saxony, not in Flanders. He then travels all over Germany.
Yes. The folklore indeed originated from Germany, but it spread to the lowcountries aswell. Eventually during the reformation, Tijl was seen as "the defender of the reformation" in Flanders and the dutch republic.
Yeah, Till was from here, Brunswick!🔵🟡
as a dutch learner im confused why some words are diferent, is this a historic thing or is just more informal speech? (great song btw ik vind het heel leuk)
I get why you're confused. It's a very strong and traditional Antwerpian dialect.
@@novabrabantia Antwerpen, en de rest is parking!
It would be hilarious if we got a national holiday where everyone spoke in old dutch to confuse tourists
Verbaasd me niets dat je verbaasd bent. Het Nederlandse taalgebied beslaat zo'n 20 miljoen mensen verdeeld over twee landen maar door de eeuwen heen heeft elke regio zijn eigen taal. Doordat Nederland een werd had men behoefte aan een centrale taal. Het ABN werd geboren.
Wist je dat het ABN eigenlijk een dialect is dat door een zeer kleine groep oorspronkelijk gesproken werd.
Nederland is eigenlijk, niet alleen in taal, een lappendeken.
@@Peter_Scheenexact hetzelfde met Italiaans, standaard Italiaans is eigenlijk een heel klein en al lang uitgestorven dialect. Vind het jammer dat ons dialecten nu weg zijn, gelukkig doet mijn dorp veel moeite om het dialect on leven te houden.
Kheb nog zon oud sprookjesboek over Tijl Uilenspiegel
Wannes Van de Velde again i think, 3 songs from him, i think one day you will make a playlist for him lol
oh nova quick question, the low countries was more for calvinism (switzerland) or lutheranism (germany)?
Calvinism
@@novabrabantia ohh thanks!
These borders are epic.
I am not good with languages and have to ask what language is this sung in? dutch with a belgian accent? low german?
Dutch with an insane Antwerp accent
It might be obvious, but I just want to make sure, but which part of the Low Countries region is this song from?
The accent is from Antwerpen and it is about Flanders. Flanders!
@@OfficialJoosty I had a feeling it was, just making sure.
@@ZINCr_aka_Q there´s also interesting information in the description
@@OfficialJoosty I read it.
Does anyone know who sings this song? I’d really appreciate it if someone could tell me
Wannes van de Velde
Is dit gezongen door Wannes Van de Velde?
ja
Yep
I already made that clear @@novabrabantia
Bedankt heren. Ik dacht het wel, maar ik had het nog nooit eerder gehoord.
Geen dank@@lander681
What a mess with the map lol
Antwerp
any west flemish songs like this?
This sounds like a made up language 😂
Antwerpen 0_0
All languages are made up
its the Brabant dialect, a different version of dutch.
Let the French-speaking territories out of this mess 😂
These places were still under Spanish control back then and were seen as "the Spanish Netherlands" so yea.
@@novabrabantia Yeah, but the past remains to the past.
@@sirkewbic5583 But this video is about the past🙃
@novabrabantia Or this video is about fantasising a Dutch rule over Gallo-Roman territories? 🤔
@@sirkewbic5583 What? The intent is to showcase the duchies of the area, whether they speak Dutch, German or French. This is the area that they used to call "The Low countries" back then.
🤮
Why?
