16 billion of gold on a ship come on

[@fallyn2920]

if i remember correctly it's said that this loss caused a economic devastation to the spanish crown that ultimately caused the collapse of the spanish empire. Which we Dutch love since we where being occupied by the cruel spanish.

[@AlexTheHistoryGuy]

We have an inventory of what was on board the ship at the time of its final departure. £16 billion may be an understatement.

[@AlexTheHistoryGuy]

Yes the ship was carrying such a huge amount of loot that was desperately needed to keep the Spanish war against England funded. The English navy had a great track record of locating and targeting Spanish bounty ships.

@@fallyn2920 Awww "cruel spanish" Tell that to the Dutch Slave Trade victims.

[@fboscmin]

@@fallyn2920you Dutch and Brits and your never ending spread of misinformation based on an extremely biased view of history…in your favor always of course. As if the Dutch had been saints in everything they ever did. Perhaps we should ask the people of Indonesia about their thoughts on this matter. And for the Brits and their spread of love and compassion among all the nations of the world throughout history….’let he who is free of sin cast the first stone’ Love from Spain

[@mk-apache6161]

We should really use that treasure to educate the indigenous people of the americas about why their ancestors were totaly screwed iver by the Europeans.
