Europeans do not want to wish anything else. Where does all the history, culture and deversity comes from? Yes, Europe. We have the biggest variëty in people, races, nature, architecture, language, culture anything. We have the richest history. And inventions. From the first language, to architecture, to art, to technology...Mesopotmia, Rome and Greece you know. Why do you think Las Vegas built little Europe there? We influenced USA. We birthed it.
Not true! Dutch people, deep down in them, want to be like the Americans. I lived in the Netherlands for a couple of years, but you don't need that long to realize how Europeans in fact have strong fascination for Americans and how they imitate them. France, Germany, The Netherlands, all those European powers are very hypocrite, because they claim hating the US, when in fact they worship it. I give you just one week vacation in one of those countires and you'll see the truth.
Hahahahahha.........omg you deutch are so crapy......cry me a river!!! it's not coming back it's gone....just like you when you idiots took our Kosovo with the Albanian organ selling freaks of nature...New Amsterdam will never be.............hahahahahah
We didn't take New Amsterdam, you sold it for that Big Apple remember!? That and a butt kicking! Being in The Netherlands I can't tell there is such a big fear of cloning America. Everything they want to sell has "American" stamped all over it. You watch our programs and listen to our music.
Not to worry, I'm American and I watch your programs and listen to your music. LOL
What if America would be totaly dutch, atleast most states?
Im not saying it should be, but what if it would be?
What would it have looked like today i wonder. How would the world be today if the dutch would the single greatest nation in the world? Just as shity for most people i imagine offcourse but alot different aswell. Some things would never have happened offcourse ( just throwing it out there) How would you believe it would be like today?
The problem was that in fact there weren't enough Dutch people in the Golden Ages... All VOC (United East-Indian Company) boats had Dutch captains and all, but the the real boatsmen/workers were coming from all different parts of Europe...
@famvisbach In the Kieft's war, many Dutch settlers wanted to return to Europe because of attacks by the natives, and less people wanted to come over. If William the III prince of Orange, who was King of England at the time, wouldn't have been such a wimp, things might have looked different today(at least for the region where the Dutch had settled).
I wonder what would have happened if the Dutch Golden age had prevailed over the Brittsh Golden Age. Then Northern America would have been populated by mostly Dutch Settlers, which probably would have made the American language Dutch, which would then probably also have made today's primairy international language Dutch!!
Now THAT would have been a sight for soar ears!!
(Dan was dit commentaar ook in het Nederlands geweest!! XP)
@Some1fromYurp actually their was a voting in i think 16's where people could vote for a world language and dutch lost the voting by only 1 vote.. anders zou nederlands dus de wereldtaal zijn:P
what is all this, i am English, New York is named after the Duke of York, and York is a place in England, so stop saying that it was something to do with Ireland. The dutch exchanged Suriname with the English for New York. Learn your history. New York was English until 1776.
@mty1 -.- you need to look some more in the history bookes before you placed that message NEW AMSTERDAM and then some english fuckes came AT NIGHT becaus at day thay could not stand a chance xD i find it a little bit sorry for england such an old queen how refuses to give away the trone OLD WHORE
@Klingesean - Learn to spell retard, i don't know where you are from, ashamed to tell everyone perhaps ha ha, it surely must be some insignificant little stupid country as the education system doesn't teach the children to spell properly, bye loser!
You can have downstate, but you'll have to fight us for upstate. We were never a part of Netherlands up here I don't think. I live in the heart of Mohawk country.
DOorDie44, Amsterdam never was part of the Hanseatic league. It was in fact a rival of the Hanseatic league.
maureenOWW, Amsterdam and its mentality and trade economy laid the very foundations of the success of New York and Amsterdam is ANYTHING BUT an introvert city.
And Dublin the center of world culture? Wow, you impress me... I can't think of anything how Dublin made a lasting impression on other cultures. The Dutch/Amsterdam atleast passed their culture on to Nieuw Amsterdam/New York.
I think that all the old forces in the world will shift, once we "dutch"" were a big player now not anymore, watch south america, asia, indi etc. While we're arguing they're boosting up their power. Funny to see that so many names in new york are dutch; coney island, harlem, the bronx, wall street, hoboken, long island ...
@dieper2dieper I was born & raised in Manhattan, of a Swedish mother & Irish father. I fell in love with NL in 1986 & moved there. NYC is different than the rest of the USA. We don't think like the rest of the country. I wish you well. Jeanne in Manhattan!
The same with Australia (formerly called New Holland), New Zealand (Called after the Dutch Provence Zeeland) and South Africa (also called Zuid-Afrika) and Indeonesia (one of the countries with the highset population on earth. If we could stopped the english in the centruy before us. Dutch was probably spoken on the whole planet instead of english. So u english cheerio u won.
@klote2314 they didn't even win that one. The english were the first to get their ass handed to them. So did the germans and later on the french eventually were kicked out of the netherlands as well. Only time i know when a country was attacked from 3 sides and won :) Go Netherlands!
York is the name of a town in England actually.. New York used to be New Amsterdam but England traded New Amsterdam with Suriname (not sure how to spell it)
You are always welcome? By the way: Jan Peter will become your Prime Minister and Beatrix your queen. Should we call Times Square: Tijdplein? And The New York Times: Nieuw Amsterdam Vandaag?
like all dutch wankers, your brainwashed from birth, you have no idea of the(real hollands history).holland DID colectively deliver up the jews you stupid cunt. holland fought for 5 days, then collaborated for the entire war. the ss even had a dutch division, by the way i am engish you cunt and my grandfather died in oosterbeck holland, yes a paratrooper, trying to free a disgusting country full of collaborators.
You suck, dude if your grandfather was as gay as you he deserved to die for sure. Have you ever considered you might be brainwashed cause of your family's subjective view? We did not collaborated the entire war, we can't help being a peacefull country anyways. The netherlands had when put in perspective, the most civilians fighting germans during the war. Also, our percentage of sheltering jews is one of the highest. The holland you are probably talking about was by then ruled by Germans.
and when it becomes new amsterdam,will you round up the jews and send them to their deaths,? will you wait for british spies to parachute in and then hand them over to the germans for money.will you spread roumors about your neighbours so the germans take them away & you take over there farm.......probably ,,,youve done it before,,
It'd be better than having black slaves all over the place and treat m like shit for like 200 years, and still. You are probably some shitty redneck somewhere in the middle of nowhere "shootin' gators wit ya daddy's rifle" but if you think that holland collectively delivered jews to germany, you suck. There is a reason Germany bombed the entire city centre of Rotterdam, and it's not cause we are a good jew provider for them.
No, it would be quite easy to kill 90& of the dutch population without any significant increase in the UK background radiation level. UK warhead designs are very efficient compared to US and russian equivalents.
i read that you weren't even from england but from ireland? talk about an insignificant country. Ofcourse you can hide behind the united kingdom but come on. Ireland had one of the largest civil wars in europe and nobody knows or cares about it man. The whole world thinks england owns the entire island. Scotland they may know from their scotch, but wales and ireland are just fillers... you know that. Atleast amsterdam has it's own unique culture... more people know amsterdam then dublin
Are you REALLY going to put AMSTERDAM up against DUBLIN in the culture stakes
? Dublin was the centre of world culture, second only to Paris and London in the 19th century. Just counting writers, we have James Joyce (Ulysses), Jonatham Swift (Gullivers Travels), Bram Stoker (Dracula), Nobel Laureates like William Yeats, George Bernard Shaw, Samuel Beckett.
Now, please provide me with a list of great world-famous dutch writers.
Sorry, I should have said dutch writers from AMSTERDAM, lets be specific! lol
Oh, and you could WIKI 'list of dublin people', which lists major people from the city. The list doesn't include scientists, of which there are dozens.
Now, I you'll notice there is no 'list of amsterdam people' - guess why?
Because Amsterdam has never been particularly important, and never part of 'world culture'. It is a quaint, local, introverted little city.
And no-one outside of the Netherlands has heard of 'The Dutch Republic', does that mean it isn't historically important? And why would anyone think england owns IRELAND? The two haven't been politically connected since 1922, are you actually that stupid lol? Do people still think the dutch are owned by Germany/France/Spain, hmm? You're talking nonsense....what you mean is YOU think that, because you're completely uneducated. Sigh...you poor, poor fool.
screw ireland, we've heard it all before. "waaaah england beat us up! waaaaaah we like green, waaaaah drink guiness, waaaaah we've been oppressed so we deserve attention! bullshit. suck it up and stop crying, the Scottish have put up with the same shit, yet you dont see them whining.....p.s.- amsterdam was the center of the hanseatic trade for centuries, plus they were the center of the dutch empire. have the irish ever had an empire? shut up!
What does that have to do with netherlands economic importance? The average income in Norway is almost $60,000. That has ABSOLUTELY NO importance, it's the TOTAL that matters, which is as follows:
Latest (2007) economy figures, GDP (total national income):
Netherlands: $777 billion
France: $2593 billion
U.K. : $2804 billion
Stop making ridiculous comments to make yourself feel better, you sad fuck.
If the dutch disappeared off the face of the earth no-one outside the EU would even notice.
@maureenOWW if the dutch never exsisted we wouldent have stock's microscopes the atlas wouldent be called an atlas no telescope submeriens artifisial kidny backtiria would have been discuved much later perhaps smae with how sperm works The compact disc Mercury thermometer so STFU
Haha Holland has been and still is pretty important in the world if you consider the size of the country. Sorry if we arent the gunslingin patriots you americans like to be, but expanding you country shoul'dnt always be a priority. Like having nukes should never be a priority. Im proud of the Netherlands, since its one of the best places to live in the world. The amount of really poor people is so low, that the significance of the country in whole isn't even significant anymore. So suck ma dick
hahaha why are you protecting americans like that? Thats sad, man. Btw ireland is even more insignificant in any way compared to holland. Sorry for your loss
Ah yes, Ireland. England's submissive bitch but to ugly to be a proper lapdog. Got a clue what the orange in that flag of yours stands for, you cunt? Irrelevant and incompetent peasants with an inferiority complex, who can't do anything by trhemselves, that's all there is to you lot.
funny vid, but little bit unrealistic. it's just nothing more than prejudices against the dutch nation. but I had a good laugh from it, and I honestly don't want new-york to be new amsterdam. but for other reasons than said in this vid.
De Engelsen waren altijd jaloers op de Hollandse kolonies. De Hollanders hebben New York, Capetown en Jakarta gesticht en zijn later allemaal (ooit) onder Engelse bewind gekomen. De Engelsen hadden meer tegen de Katholieke Spanjaarden moeten strijden ipv van het Protestanse Nederlanden, terwijl Engeland ook Protestants was.
When the guy says "My biggest fear is that we become Holland" he probably means porn, prostitution, drugs, and high taxes. As if NYC doesn't have those already!
He might also mean we are no longer an empire, just as Holland was an empire but is no longer. Too many Americans only love their country because it kicks ass around the world. That thinking is leading us to bankruptcy. Listen to Ron Paul before it's too late.
prachtig! jammer alleen dat sommige mensen het echt serieus nemen en opeens super nationalistisch worden, you americans, chill! een jointje zou wel helpen denk ik, hi hi, groeten uit oud amsterdam
Holland(The Netherlnds is flat not because we cannot build that but because our country is below sealevel and the ground is to muddy and weak to let a building like the empire or (twin) stand, the highest we have is officefanancial building that is 150 Meters high if we build higher the ground wil not hold and AMERICA and UK ROCKS :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
u just want whats urs???looooooool whats was once urs is now ours cause the usa takes over!!!soon canadad will be ours too so when that happens u and the canadians can cry together!!lol
First of, the land (New York) they traded was from the indians. And they shouldnt have trade it for Surinam, so they could have more slavetrading buisness in South America!!
So if anybody should "get it back", it should be the indians!
ho dude you need to chill out i think you takeing this way to sirius your right we have trade it was not a smart thing but it hapend another thing i wanna say is that holland (and the spanih,frence,portuges,british) maybe a little a shame about slavery but i can start about vietnam you wouldn't feel proud to whould ya??

Because Amsterdam has never been particularly important, and never part of 'world culture'. It is a quaint, local, introverted little city.
Don't pretend it's anything else.

And no-one outside of the Netherlands has heard of 'The Dutch Republic', does that mean it isn't historically important? And why would anyone think england owns IRELAND? The two haven't been politically connected since 1922, are you actually that stupid lol? Do people still think the dutch are owned by Germany/France/Spain, hmm? You're talking nonsense....what you mean is YOU think that, because you're completely uneducated. Sigh...you poor, poor fool.

screw ireland, we've heard it all before. "waaaah england beat us up! waaaaaah we like green, waaaaah drink guiness, waaaaah we've been oppressed so we deserve attention! bullshit. suck it up and stop crying, the Scottish have put up with the same shit, yet you dont see them whining.....p.s.- amsterdam was the center of the hanseatic trade for centuries, plus they were the center of the dutch empire. have the irish ever had an empire? shut up!

I think one is underestimating how much of the economy is effected by the netherlands, especially on the european level.

Latest (2007) economy figures, GDP (total national income):
Netherlands: $777 billion
France: $2593 billion
U.K. : $2804 billion
Divided by population, they are about equal. Although the ports are important, obviously.

Total national income per head
Netherlands $ 47615
U.K. $ 45891
thats the fact, and the difference is getting bigger every year

What does that have to do with netherlands economic importance? The average income in Norway is almost $60,000. That has ABSOLUTELY NO importance, it's the TOTAL that matters, which is as follows:

Stop making ridiculous comments to make yourself feel better, you sad fuck.

Haha Holland has been and still is pretty important in the world if you consider the size of the country. Sorry if we arent the gunslingin patriots you americans like to be, but expanding you country shoul'dnt always be a priority. Like having nukes should never be a priority. Im proud of the Netherlands, since its one of the best places to live in the world. The amount of really poor people is so low, that the significance of the country in whole isn't even significant anymore. So suck ma dick

funny vid, but little bit unrealistic. it's just nothing more than prejudices against the dutch nation. but I had a good laugh from it, and I honestly don't want new-york to be new amsterdam. but for other reasons than said in this vid.

De Engelsen waren altijd jaloers op de Hollandse kolonies. De Hollanders hebben New York, Capetown en Jakarta gesticht en zijn later allemaal (ooit) onder Engelse bewind gekomen. De Engelsen hadden meer tegen de Katholieke Spanjaarden moeten strijden ipv van het Protestanse Nederlanden, terwijl Engeland ook Protestants was.

When the guy says "My biggest fear is that we become Holland" he probably means porn, prostitution, drugs, and high taxes. As if NYC doesn't have those already!
He might also mean we are no longer an empire, just as Holland was an empire but is no longer. Too many Americans only love their country because it kicks ass around the world. That thinking is leading us to bankruptcy. Listen to Ron Paul before it's too late.

First of, the land (New York) they traded was from the indians. And they shouldnt have trade it for Surinam, so they could have more slavetrading buisness in South America!!
So if anybody should "get it back", it should be the indians!
