The Government of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands

The United Provinces is a Absolute Monarchy under the command of King Jaerdsoon van Oranje (Jarod Pillagebane). The Dutch seem to be everywhere in the world. You can find the good-laden Dutch fluyts and merchantmen in the nice, warm waters of the West Indies and including on their ships what is being exported from sugar plantations in Dutch Guyana and Curaçao. The main reason why the Dutch became the world's largest economy is because of a trading company in the East Indies and that company is called the Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie (VOC, or "United East India Company") but the second reason why is because of Africa (particularly the Dutch Gold Coast, including the colonies of Dutch Guinea and Elmina, and their diamonds, gems, and gold. The current guild for the Dutch Republic is OUTLAWS under the command of Stadtholder Jaerdsoon van Oranje as Guild Master, Prince of Orange Jacobus van Oranje.

DutchTradeCompanies.jpg|The two major trade companies of the Netherlands—the Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, or VOC (United East India Company) and the Geoctroyeerde Westindische Compagnie, or GWIC (Chartered West India Company). They colonised where they had trading posts, settling and claiming the land for the Netherlands.

Trade was the Netherlands' saving grace during the Eights Years War versus Spain, and is to this day. Having risen out of the ashes—as a new nation—was a Protestant stronghold in northwestern Europe where science, trade, and freedom of thought were to forever flourish. The Dutch have one of the most superior navies and trade companies, allowing them to prosper and maintain a military able to fend off attacks from the Spaniards to the south. Having burned the English fleet an anchor in 1689, forcing the English to sign a peace treaty, and won the Franco-Dutch War (assisted by her allies, Denmark-Norway, the Holy Roman Empire, and Brandenburg, and Spain, whom she had set aside her differences with) versus France, England, Sweden, Münster, and Cologne, she, though small, has fended off years of invasion. This was partially owed to Maarten Tromp and Michiel de Ruyter, two strategical geniuses, the latter of which's strategies were copied by the famous Lord Horatio Nelson in the Battle of the Nile.
