Rotterdam was pretty insignificant at that time. The economical power of Rotterdam , to what it is today, started really after the opening of the "Nieuwe Waterweg".

I agree there are discrepancies in the video. However he was correct about the canal during Wiliam IV (count of holland and NOT king) who lived around 1300-1350. To evade toll at the city of Schiedam, they dug a canal from the 'Schie' river to the 'Rotte' river. Therefor this canal is known as the 'Rotterdamse schie'. Only much later they created the 'Nieuwe Waterweg' canal (1872) which was needed to let the Rotterdam harbor grow into a gigantic port. Before the 19th century, Rotterdam was only a small port city between other port cities (Schiedam, Delft/Delfshaven, Dordrecht,.....).

Do your business everywhere but always bring home the goods is what we get fed here from a very early age. Unfortunately I must say that with these newer generations this mindset is getting a bit lost now. For example nowadays all movies and cartoons are dubbed in dutch and in schools they teach allot less about that international mindset. Also many dutch politicians nowadays look at other countries as an example and also inhibit their us first practices, losing some of our dutch culture in the process. We were never this nationalists type of country and we were always open to explore. But sadly the nationalist mentality is growing here and there's even people who want the Netherlands out of the EU and separate ourselves as a country from the world.

Veldhoven is next door to Eindhoven, home town of Philips Company. Eindhoven didn't exist as a city until Philips started producing lightbulbs and expanded into way too many industries to mention. What is now called Eindhoven used to be a group of small villages like Strijp, Gestel, Tongelre and Acht, to name a few. ASML and a few other companies (Origin if my memory serves me well) were spin-off's of Philips, many of whom stayed geographically close to their mother-ship. Philips was considered one of the best employers in the Netherlands for many years, not in the least for their huge contribution to the welfare of their employees in the form of housing, schools, cultural centres and health care facilities. Not to mention Frits Philip's pride and joy PSV (Philips Sport Vereniging), which is most known for their soccer club. Their accounting system was top-notch, as well their inhouse schooling facilities. Many companies were started by ex-Philips employees, contributing to the growth of the formerly poor area.

Also the route of shipping didn't show the Brouwer Route since 1611 which out of 10,000 ships to Indonesia 1,000 past in sight of most of the west coast of Australia.

Our history is mired in falsehood, even the notion of Sydney being a convict settlement is as laughable as today sending our convicts to Mars.

[@Guido_XL]

As a Dutchman, I can respond to this video with some nuanced smirk :) Yes, the Netherlands appeared to be quite successful during the centuries since they emerged as a loosely unified republic inside larger European imperial constraints. The Dutch could benefit from their relative defensive geography (much water, impeding large armies to enter and attack), whilst acting relatively independently from their theoretical rulers. Experience with international trade probably started with the Hanze union of cities, during which trade was mostly limited to sea-faring between countries at the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. The mindset of independence initiated the drive to explore ways to improve ship building for the peoples' own sake, and not for the sake of the remote ruler. Holland became a place for others to which they would resort, as a place of freedom and lack of persecution. By the way, "Holland" is not a synonym for "the Netherlands", as the East and South were more affected by foreign rule than the core-land that became known as Holland. Thick books have been written about the history of this small country, so we should not try to condense too much into a few sentences. It seems remarkable though, that we do no hear that often the mentioning of the way in which mighty Great-Britain lost several sea battles against this small country, in which the Raid on the Medway is perhaps the most iconic one. The British do not like to be reminded of those defeats, and who can blame them?

Fine video with only one flaw. The developments of the 14th, 15, 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th century were all heaped together into "16th century". That's Trumpian think.

@@tedcrilly46 It takes a lot more power, resulting in more generated heat that has to be transported away. To make effective use of a larger chip, you need a more complex design, which introduces new challanges. Also it takes time for a signal to propagate through the chip, limiting the maximum frequency. Larger chips can be used, but since ASML is only concerned with the technology required to produce chips, they keep advancing that direction.

Recently, I am reading the Neglected Formosa, a translation from the Dutch of Frederic Coyett’s ‘t Verwaerloosde Formosa. It is so interesting to understand the connection between Dutch and Formosa(Taiwan) in the 17th century and compare it with the connection between ASML and TSMC in the 21st century. Geologically, so far away but technologically, so intertwined.

Exactly. A lot of companies passed on TSMC when it first started, but ASML smartly didn't. In no small part TSMC made ASML what it is today and the vice versa.

[@aalliaandreadis5109]

​@@Dionysos640 the "British empire" and the nationalism that came with it was just a useful tool for these companies who didnt want to pay (and frankly could no longer afford) for the cost of their security. Domestically, the "police" served in similar fashion to break up worker strikes in the UK cos paying for that would bankrupt the industrialists. In the USA domestically they were slave-catchers. The USA army likewise exists in order to bully the world into accepting economic dictates. Obviously none of this has anything to do with the free market. Mercantilism.

Hey Ben I remember watching your stock vidoes a while back before you started working on your e-commerce business and i remember your channel really inspired little me to sit down and learn about stocks, investing and dividends and all that. Not that i understood much of what any of that was back then, but i vividly remember a video of you talking about how google had closed at -5% for the day and you saw that as a discount to buy more. Also i remember you talking about how you discussed stocks with your father and you weren’t all that happy about him playing with penny stocks 😂. Good times back when investing was still a niche on youtube and not every channel was shoving get rich quick bs down our throats. Anyway, i just wanted to thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos and how you have had a positive impact on who i am today, and i wish you good health and good luck with your future projects!!

9 hours ago (edited) On the map it showed Britain owning Australia but actually the Dutch (Able Tasman) claimed all of Australia since 1642. They started mapping it (Queensland) in 1606, First European (Dutch) born here in 1623, First permanent residents 1629 and had many settlements before Cook. The whole of Australia was mapped but the east coast had an accurate line without the bays as Tasman was too far from the east coast shore when circumnavigating . Also the route of shipping didn't show the Brouwer Route since 1611 which out of 10,000 ships to Indonesia 1,000 past in sight of most of the west coast of Australia. When the English arrived the Dutch put in a formal complaint to the European courts but were too busy with domestic affairs, although the Dutch never relinquished the territory, in theory still owning it, except for Aboriginal true ownership of course.
