It might be of interest for you to know that the Dutch had not 1 but 2 Golden Centuries and dominated world trade for centuries. The Dutch were everywhere around the world. Hence names like. Tasmania, New Zealand, or New Amsterdam (now New York), the Bering sea, South Afrika and that is just for starters. With only 3 million inhabitants they were the by far biggest traders worldwide and still among the dominating exports countries worldwide now. The Dutch owned Ceylon, Indonesia, Suriname (traded for Brazil), great parts of the Caribbean, traders with Japan on the island of Decima, and so on. Greetings from Germany.
Fun fact about the CD is that the hole size is based on a Dutch coin. Joop Sinjou said: "The quickest decision in the development phase was about the diameter of the hole in the CD. I put a dubbeltje (10 cent Dutch coin) on the table and that became the measure."
in regards to the national anthem. It is the oldest song and lyrics combined for an anthem in the world, however the Japanese lyrics are far older but the music itself is younger and also the anthem wasnt actually officially the anthem before other current national anthems were so it depends on your definition.
Wi-fi theory was created long before and Australian John O’Sullivan (an Aussie guy who created WiFi in the 1970s) formalised wi-fi. Frequency hoping was theorised by an Austrian-American actress Hedwig Eva Kiesler (aka Hedy Lamarr). Bluetooth is definitely Dutch...

yeah cope harder. When Wifi was created John didnt even knew about it. the 802.11 protocol is created in the Netherlands by Cees Link and Victor Hayes. WIFI is a Dutch invention. John even came to the Netherlands to the Small village of Dwingeloo to learn about it. he knew nothing about this before. he got nothing to do with the 802.11 WIFI protocol that we still use. so stop your coping. Australia perfected it thats literally all they did. you probably say that Ericson created the light bulb as well dont you. or that Bell created the Telephone
No, they were the first to use it (2000). The invention was a collection of Dutch, American en Australien men/companies and technics (between 1985 - 1997). Vic Hayes and Bell Labs are credited as the founding fathers.
Cassette tapes yes CD Disks no Phillips *and Sony* DVD no *Sony* , Philips, *Toshiba, and Time Warner* By the way it was a German that invented MP3 the compression algorithm used to pack music onto disks. The iPod was 2001, The first digital audio player (DAP), the Rio PMP300, was released in 1998.
CD was Dutch later on they created the DVD and Blu-ray on the idea of the CD. so yes it is a Dutch invention. other companies worked together with the creation of it. the idea itself is Dutch. why do you people always cope learn facts before talking
@@daveofyorkshire301 that you are wrong. also Warner has nothing to do with the DVD or CD. thats all Dutch and Japanese. America got literally no play in it.

Wifi was invented in Australia. It's their greatest scientific achievement.

they forgot the submarine.
Are you claiming they invented it before Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)?
@@daveofyorkshire301 da Vinci made one too? one that actually worked, and not just on paper.
@@secondwind9337 If we're talking first DaVinci was first, so it wasn't a Dutch invention...
