Stronkest master race reporting in.
Daily reminder that the combined forces of France, Germany and the UK couldn't take us on. And we liberated the USA and took England.
The Netherlands and Mongolia are pretty much the only relevant powers that have ever existed.

>married an English queen
>took England
fuck off you irrelevant weed fag
>got invaded by an army twice the size of the Spanish armada
>british flee
>pretend to be never invaded
You're bigger pussies than the French desu.
Even in WW2 the French had to cover your retreat back to your own Island.
>got invaded
Post a link to the battle or war then
Only thing the Spanish left for the world was their colonies, and look how that turned out.
We can't help it you glorify being invaded and taken over by a foreign power.

Note that you tried to invade us a few years earlier with the help of France and Germany and failed.

>In 1688, when faced with an English king who again seemed to side with the French, the Dutch mobilised their full resources in order to invade Britain
The Ancient Finnish Hyper-State
and what exactly left the brithis one?
at least we created millions of new catholicists that will be usefull in the next war against islam :)
> In reality, by that point James was simply playing for time, having already decided to flee the country. He feared that his English enemies would insist on his execution and that William would give in to their demands. Convinced that his army was unreliable, he sent orders to disband it.
The British literally disband their army at the sight of the Dutch LOL.
>US
>great

>Still talking about holy wars
This is why you fail
The brits dominated the world economically after they beat your ass, and since they are one of the main anglo countries, they can claim a hand in the current cultural and economic dominance in the world.
Is anything great about russia though? Army, maybe (not really if you study it closely though). Culture? All imported, and then wiped out by the commies a century ago. Economical? They just holds a Siberian firesale and hope theres enough in the ground for current elites to make it to their retirement in the West.
What's left?
>defeated them in the first anglo-dutch war
>defeated them in the second anglo-Dutch war
>defeated them in the third anglo-dutch war
>liberated the USA in the fourth anglo-dutch war
>the Netherlands successfully invaded and took over England
>the British tried to liberate us with Russia in the Napoleonic war and failed (until the Prussians came to help at Waterloo)
>the British tried to liberate us in WW2 and failed (until Canada liberated us)
Very powerful indeed.
British Military history isn't nearly as impressive as the fact that despite all of it, they managed to be the richest, and most powerful nation of the time.
1600 - the Netherlands is the richest
1700 - the Netherlands is the richest
1820 - the Netherlands is the richest
1870 - the UK is the richest
1913 - the USA is the richest

>The brits dominated the world economically
we did it too. the diference is they did the last.
if you had born in 1500-1600 you were living in a world totally dominated by us.
all the empires born and die. brithis one has fell and only is remembered because one of their colonies,USA, is nowadays the first world power.
nothing more. If USA dont exist nowadays, brithis empire only would be a vague memory in the history books, like is the spanish one.
also, like i say before, we create millions of new catholicists, wearing the western culture to a new continent. Only for this we deserve to be remembered and respeted.
