    Stocks & Bitcoin, forex and cryptocurrency are falling and bond yields are rising, but markets still don't seem convinced the Federal Reserve will pursue plans to keep increasing interest rates until inflation is under control. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $150,000 stock portfolio, what's the best way to take advantage of this bear market?

    Please note that The Netherlands back in the 17th century was the mightiest country in the world, colonised Indonesia, Australia(New Holland) and stuff... New Zealand is called after our prince Zeeland. Brooklyn. Harlem (Breukelen, Haarlem), also examples. Back the the Dutch fleet was the biggest by far.

    • @ArjanHier
      @ArjanHier 6 років тому +78

      We never colonized Australia though. We just discovered it and gave it a name (same for New Zealand). The rest is true. If I'm not mistaken, our fleet was larger than the second and third combined.

    With good reason, for I married a wonderful woman, in the land where I live now.
    Seeing this video, brought tears to my eyes. Twice! Once because I actually felt a little bit homesick, for the first time in ten years, probably because I have not been eable to return for such a long time, because of Covid. The second time, because of the pronunciation of "Keukenhof".
    But hey, Dutch is a rotten language to learn, and to pronounce, so, no worries.

For instance, I’m living in the UK, I came to this country and have the same rights as a British person thanks to the Dutch Nationality. While a British citizen, needed a visa to travel to Curaçao.

    I don’t mind foreigners referring to our nation by saying “Holland”. The thing I get worked up about is Dutchmen replying to the question “Where do you come from?” answering “Holland”. They teach wrongly and don’t know their country’s name in English. Again, foreigners are forgiven, few citizens of the Netherlands often support the nation by saying Holland theirselves too, for example during soccer games, or naming traditional food, but teaching/spreading a wrong name as a native intentionally without any context is different.

      Don't forget dat Den Haag as well as Den Bosch are shortened versions of the original town names. So Den Haag was 's-Gravenhage before where the 's was a shortened version of des. That translates to the fence/hedge of the count/earl. This was a big area that was fenced off as property of said count/earl.
      Of course these were long names that especially internationally were considered confusing and so they got shortened to their current form. (Den Bosch or 's-Hertogenbosch means the count's woods).

    Louis Napoleon, the French Emperor's brother, was actually *first king of Holland.*
    The Dutch people loved him and he loved Holland/The Netherlands in return.
    He actually followed lessons in Dutch, gave money and aid to the victims after a big munitions ship had exploded and he also ignored Dutch illegal trade with the English, which was strictly forbidden by the Continental System imposed by his brother, the Emperor of France.
    When Napoleon asked Louis to send him 40,000 fresh Dutch troops, Louis responded he was unable to because there weren't that many left after Napoleon's first few drafts.
    After only a few years, Louis Napoleon, King of Holland, was recalled by his brother in disgrace.
    The Dutch however were sad to see him go. He also gave us the idea that having a monarch was kind of neat so when the Prince of Orange returned from Great Britain, he became first Dutch king Willem I.

    as a dutch person i can tell about the aviation part: the introducer of flying in the Netherlands was not albert plesman, it was Anthony Fokker, plesman was the director of KLM. I can teel this because I made a thesis about aviation and got 8 out of 10 points

    There's another language in the Netherlands, it's called Nether-Saxon. The Nether-Saxon language covers most of the east of the country, and similarly, most of the West of Germany; the language has it's own local dialects. The language is literally in between official Dutch and German, retaining elements of both, but has a unique enough syntax and grammar it's considered its own language.
    Dutch people in the west of the country who have never learned Nether-Saxon as such can usually still understand the language (Unlike the Fries language, which takes a lot more effort to decipher). The same doesn't go for Germans.

    We call in Den Haag, but because we are able to speak some tones (like the g or sch) that people from different countries can't, it is called The Hague. This way people who visit The Netherlands are able to explain were they are going without having struggels. And we don't get offended when you say your are going to Holland, even though your are going to visit our whole country, we just appreciate it more when you say that you are going to the Netherlands. We from the Netherlands also don't say; we are going to California even tho we visit every state.

    5:28 Den Haag (Dutch for the Hague) is a tongue twister for the English; saying it can be quite the challenge. Yet, they often find themselves needing to pronounce it, given that it's a city bustling with international visitors and the seat of the Dutch government. To make life a bit easier, the English have opted for a simpler name. Now, Amsterdam, on the other hand, rolls off the tongue with ease, so no name-changing necessary there!

    First Dutch windmills built in 1850 ? You are mistaken, our windmills are from earlier ages. The first windmills were built around 1200 and many windmills in good shape stem from 1600-1750. Come visit Kinderdijk for the most magnificient collection, 22 windmills that have been working together for centuries to keep the land dry.

    Maybe in a comment earlier: The province's name "Friesland" is pronounced as "frees land" where the people living there call themselves Friesen ("Freesen").
    The origin of the province's name comes from: Land of the Friesen (Frisians) which was a north-western Germanic tribe in Roman times.
