Question: The Governor-General of the United Provinces during the Seige of Sluis died during which time frame?
Context: The Dutch Republic, also known as the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands ("Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Nederlanden "), Republic of the United Netherlands, Republic of the Seven United Provinces ("Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Provinciën "), the United Provinces ("Verenigde Provinciën "), Seven Provinces ("Zeven Provinciën "), Federated Dutch Provinces ("Foederatae Belgii Provinciae "), or the Dutch Federation ("Belgica Foederata ") was a republic in Europe existing from 1581, when part of the Netherlands separated from Spanish rule, until 1795.  It preceded the Batavian Republic, the Kingdom of Holland, the United Kingdom of the Netherlands, and ultimately the modern Kingdom of the Netherlands. The United Provinces of British India, more commonly known as the United Provinces, was a province of British India, which came into existence on 3 January 1921 as a result of the renaming of the "United Provinces of Agra and Oudh".  It corresponded approximately to the combined regions of the present-day Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.  It ceased to exist on 1 April 1937 when it was renamed as the United Provinces. Lucknow became its capital some time after 1921. The Central India Agency was a political office of the British Indian Empire, which covered the north-western half of present-day Madhya Pradesh state.  The Central India Agency was made up entirely of princely states, which were under native rulers.  The agency was bordered by the Central Provinces and Berar to the south; the Chota Nagpur princely states to the east, which were transferred from Bengal to the Central Provinces and Berar in 1905; the United Provinces of Agra and Oudh to the north; Rajputana to the northwest; and Bombay Presidency to the west and southwest.  Lalitpur District, part of the United Provinces, split the Central India Agency into eastern and western portions. The United Provinces of Agra and Oudh was a province of India under the British Raj, which existed from 1902 to 1947; the official name was shortened by the Government of India Act 1935 to United Provinces (UP), by which the province had been commonly known, and by which name it was also a province of independent India until 1950.  It corresponded approximately to the present-day Indian states of Uttar Pradesh (UP) and Uttarakhand.  From 1856 to 1902, the region had existed as two separate provinces, North-Western Provinces and Oudh.  Allahabad became its capital in 1902 and continued until 1920.  Lucknow was not made the capital until after 1921. Albertus Henricus Wiese (1761–1810) was Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1805 to 1808, during which time the United Provinces became, during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, first of all the Batavian Republic and then the (Napoleonic) Kingdom of Holland.  Dutch possessions in the Indies were under pressure from other European powers, particularly Great Britain, while local kings and princes took the opportunity of troubled times to try to reassert themselves.  Weakness of control from the homeland led to a growth of corruption, nepotism and even lawlessness in the Dutch East Indies.  It was a difficult time for any Governor-General. Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester (24 June 1532 or 1533 – 4 September 1588) was an English nobleman and the favourite and close friend of Elizabeth I's, from her first year on the throne until his death.  He was a suitor for the queen's hand for many years. What today is commonly referred as the Independence of Argentina was declared on July 9, 1816 by the Congress of Tucumán.  In reality, the congressmen who were assembled in Tucumán declared the independence of the United Provinces of South America, which is still today one of the legal names of the Argentine Republic.  The Federal League Provinces, at war with the United Provinces, were not allowed into the Congress.  At the same time, several provinces from the Upper Peru that would later become part of present-day Bolivia, were represented at the Congress. The Siege of Sluis of 1587 took place between 12 June and 4 August 1587, as part of the Eighty Years' War and the Anglo-Spanish War (1585–1604).  On 12 June 1587, Don Alexander Farnese, Duke of Parma "(Spanish: Alejandro Farnesio)", Governor-General of the Spanish Netherlands, and commander-in-chief of the Army of Flanders, laid siege to the strategic deep-water port of Sluis, defended by English and Dutch troops under Sir Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, Governor-General of the United Provinces, and Sir Roger Williams.  On 24 June, the bombardment began, and on 4 August, after of 13 days of constant fighting around the walls, the English garrison surrendered. <ref name="Parker/Martin p. 126–127">Parker/Martin p. 126–127</ref> The loss of the English-held port of Sluis revealed the inability of Leicester to assert his authority over the Dutch allies, who refused to cooperate in relieving the town, and led to recriminations between the governor-general and the States of Holland. Agra Province was a part of the United Provinces of Agra and Oudh of British India during the closing decades of the British Raj, from 1904 until 1947; it corresponded (under Section 4(4) of United Provinces Act 1, 1904) to the former regions, Ceded and Conquered Provinces (1805–1836) and the North Western Provinces (1836–1902). Several motivations underlie the project.  The primary ambition of MOM is to preserve an image of our era, created by numerous participants all over the planet.  MOM will also contain information which our society is obliged to forward to the future: e.g. description of nuclear waste repositories.  MOM collaborates with the NEA and SKB.  Although the most obvious ambition and often described in the media is the concern about preserving our knowledge, this is not the primary goal of MOM.  Serving as a time capsule MOM is both: in a time frame of millennia it is the story about us, and in a time frame of decades it is a backup.  In times where global warming, nuclear danger and biological warfare threaten the existence of civilization, saving the core knowledge and culture acquired over centuries is a backup measure.  In case of a collapse, the MOM project could help survivors to rebuild civilization.  Linked to this, an another reason is of political order: facing the lack of reactivity of authorities concerning global warming, the MOM project is a reminder of what can happen.  Roman and Greek civilizations whose histories have been reconstructed by the small percentage of texts and artifacts which survived until our days are examples that have inspired the MOM project.  Finally, it's a critic of our digital civilization : according to Kunze, maybe nothing of the 21st century will last in the future, since most of our interactions are now virtual.  The "accuracy versus bullshit" is one of the main themes of the MOM project, worried about loss of information, the project can only aim to save a fragment of the information produced until today, but this fragment has to be representative.
Answer: 24 June 1532 or 1533 – 4 September 1588
