Action A of 186009 - Wartime devastation of Friesen for Netherlands

Description

In 1579 the Northern provinces in the Low Countries signed the Union of Utrecht as countermeasure to the Union of Arras, which the Southern provinces signed as a guarantee of allegiance to their suzerain in exchange of more freedom under condition that Catholic religion was to be restored and practiced in those lands. As answer to these concessions which were clearly driven to force-convert and subjugate the Dutch population, the largely Protestant and Reformed Northern provinces of the Low Countries of the Union of Utrecht proclaimed their independence from the 'tyrannical and untrustworthy' suzerain and convened their own General Estates with the representatives of the seven rebelling provinces in the presiding province of Holland at The Hague. As a result of this, we are swiftly losing control of large holdings in the Netherlands to the victorious Dutch rebels. More local nobles and magnates seem to be joining the Dutch cause every day. We must strike swiftly and without mercy if we want to put a stop to this outrage and save our finances!

Description

In 1566 Dutch Nobles came to the King in an effort to stop the persecution of the Inquisition and to let the General Estates convene. The only answer they got was from the Count de Barlaymont who said 'Ces Gueux' (These Beggars!) in a spiteful voice. The Dutch took to that name with pride, calling themselves 'The Geuses'. One of the effects of the insulting denial was that in several cities churches were stormed, destroying relics and paintings. Knowing the effect on the King, William of Oranien tried to stop these acts of violence, but it was futile. The grass had caught fire...

Description

By caving into the Dutch demands for lower taxes at more local rule, a dangerous precedent was set. Throughout the empire, various states would step forth demanding that they be allowed the privileges that had been granted to the Dutch.

Description

In 1566 Dutch Nobles came to the King in an effort to stop the persecution of the Inquisition and to let the General Estates convene. The only answer they got was from the Count de Barlaymont who said 'Ces Gueux' (These Beggars!) in a spiteful voice. The Dutch took to that name with pride, calling themselves 'The Geuses'. One of the effects of the insulting denial was that in several cities churches were stormed, destroying relics and paintings. Knowing the effect on the King, William of Oranien tried to stop these acts of violence, but it was futile. The grass had caught fire...

Description

In 1567 elite troops were brought in determined to break the Dutch Insurrection. The Edict of Blood was issued, which allowed the army to create a harsh military dictatorship with mass-arrests and courts of honour as a daily routine. The Terror of the Inquisition was intensified and hundreds of people were executed. In 1568 the counts of Hoorn and Egmont were arrested and executed making William of Oranien the only leader left to take up the flag. In 1570 the army introduced a 10 percent tax even as the Dutch had paid a two-year tax that the General estates had agreed upon on the promise of no more extra taxes. A General Strike spread in the Netherlands...In 1573 it was clear that the elite army had failed to subjugate the Dutch.

Description

After the failure of the Edict of Blood a more humane policy was adopted. It was understood that the Netherlands could only be kept if the wishes of the catholic provinces were agreed upon. In 1579 the Union of Arras was signed with the Catholic provinces of Artois and Hainault. In response, some of the Northern provinces then created the Union of Utrecht, the first sign of a new country. In addition to the northern provinces, all of the key southern cities, Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp, Brussels, and Brabant, joined the union despite apathy from their surrounding territories.

Description

After the failure of the Edict of Blood a more humane policy was adopted. It was understood that the Netherlands could only be kept if the wishes of the catholic provinces were agreed upon. In 1579 the Union of Arras was signed with the Catholic provinces of Artois and Hainault. In response, some of the Northern provinces then created the Union of Utrecht, the first sign of a new country. In addition to the northern provinces, all of the key southern cities, Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp, Brussels, and Brabant, joined the union despite apathy from their surrounding territories.

Description

From the start of Dutch Revolt a lack of central authority had made it difficult for the provinces to coordinate their efforts against royalist forces. By 1581 it was decided to setup Council of State, located in Brabant, to direct the war from a single command center. However, a competing council was also setup to direct forces in the northern theater. The division of Dutch forces allowed for a royalist resurgence in Brabant and Flanders. Viewing the southern lowlands as a lost cause, the Council of State in Brabant dissolved itself in 1583.

Description

After the initial failures of 1580-1590s and a prolonged cease-fire, in the first decades of the XVII century the enemy took up the offensive in the Low Countries again. The entrepreneurial and thrifty Dutch people were soon on the move, bearing all the costs of war in strengthening coastal and inland defences, both given by nature's favour or by man's skills, and stopping any enemy landing from the sea by means of an invincible fleet, the 'Gueux de mer' (The Sea Beggars). All of this constituted the defensive tactics made necessary to compensate the impossibility to have large armies available in battlefields. Even if in 1625 Breda capitulated and in 1627 Nijmegen fell while the enemy hired Lansquenets were moving into Geldern and threatened Utrecht, the Dutch independentists managed to withstand the invasion and to strengthen their national cohesion. In 1648, at the Peace of The Hague which ended the Eighty Years War between the United Provinces of the Low Countries (the Netherlands) and their former suzerain, the world at last acknowledged the legitimate self-determination of the Dutch people to rule themselves over their own country.

All of this constituted the defensive tactics made necessary to compensate the impossibility to have large armies available in battlefields. Even if in 1625 Breda capitulated and in 1627 Nijmegen fell while the enemy hired Lansquenets were moving into Geldern and threatened Utrecht, the Dutch independentists managed to withstand the invasion and to strengthen their national cohesion. In 1648, at the Peace of The Hague which ended the Eighty Years War between the United Provinces of the Low Countries (the Netherlands) and their former suzerain, the world at last acknowledged the legitimate self-determination of the Dutch people to rule themselves over their own country.

337048. The Restoration in the Low Countries

Province of Brabant — Not random

Conditions

  • At least one of the following must occur:
    • Flag [DutGenEst] is set
    • Flag [EdictBlood] is set
    • Flag [Arras] is set
  • The following must not occur:
    • Flag [NethRepat] is set
  • The following must not occur:

Will happen within 13 days of January 2, 1648
Checked again every 13 days until trigger is met (cannot happen after January 2, 1649)

Description

In the first decades of the XVII century fierce religious struggles unceasingly prosecuted in the Low Countries and the Catholic army took up the offensive in the Netherlands winning victory after victory. The Dutch again opened the dykes to flood the enemy, but it backfired and they lost most of their elite troops. In 1625 Breda capitulated, and in 1627 Nijmegen fell, while the Lansquenets moved into Geldern and threatened Utrecht. But the best was yet to come. After winning a night-time sea battle the Catholic navy landed a large army in Zeeland, and within a year control was regained over the quarrelsome subjects. During the years until the Peace of The Hague, all non-Catholics were harshly subjugated. Catholics were given preferment and local self-governance. A pact between all the Catholic subjects and the suzerain was instituted. Many Calvinists, unwilling to be force-converted to Catholicism, had to leave the Netherlands for the newly born overseas colonies in South Africa and in the South East Indies. In 1648 with the end of the Eighty Years War against the Dutch rebels, the world at last acknowledged our rightful rule in the Low Countries.
