Some other mentionable facts: - We bred the carot orange in honour of the King of Orange - We invented the stock market in 1602 - We are the first to legalize euthanasia
Yes, Jaap Hartsen worked at Ericsson subsidiary in Emmen, the Netherlands. Ericsson had multiple offices/factories/research facilities in The Netherlands in Emmen, Rijen en Enschede.
I believe a large part of this Ericsson legacy is now with a much smaller company called ‘Dopple’, located in Assen (NL), that produces high quality custom hearing protection.
A bit stupid to forget that the dit h invented the idea of shares and the stock exchange. The first company in the world to use shares was the VOC 1602. Also Christiaan Huygens who invented the pendulum of a clock that makes it more accurate. To name a few more.
@timetraveler43 Not really. Back then, food was the most important "currency" and New Amsterdam could not provide it. Part of British Guyana seemed logical back then...
No Anthem in schools in The Netherlands. The hoses have been invented to fight protesters. Jenever is still going strong, hence the bar fights , devorces and other great stuff.
What a great quote: Let people do whatever they want if they don't hurt anyone. I have another one: don't do to others what you wouldn't want done to you. If everyone lived by these sayings, the world would be a much better place.
That's Matthew 7:12 and Luke 6:31 Matthew 7:12 ("Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them...") Luke 6:31 ("And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them in like manner")
I've worked for Nira Emmen Netherlands, "Dutch import radio articles". This company made call systems for hospital staff. They were acquired by Erricson in the 1990s. With the knowledge they had in-house, a Dutch engineer invented blue tooth.
Yes, but the Goalkeeper system is not world wide known, nor widely used. At this present time only 7 navies in the world use it among them the Netherlands and Belgium and South Korea, in the past also the UK and Germany used it on their naval ships.
@terabbs What does that have to do with great inventions know all over the world and their major impact on our civilisation? U are talking about an invention of a system only used by navies, this has no major impact on civilisation unlike WIFI or Cassetteplayer etc. etc. Besides the GoalKeeper actually was later developed then it's Russian counterpart the AK-630 which started in the early 60's while the GoalKeeper started development in the late 70''s. If u want to make a statement which country invented a working prototype of a CIWS system first it would been the former Sovjet-Union. And the US their Phalanx system was developed simultanious at nearly the same time as the Dutch GoalKeeper and entered in service at exact the same year the Dutch system entered service. The Phalanx was not a reinvention nor a better version, it was based on a different gun platform and both systems have their pro's an con's with destroying different types of incoming missiles for defense. Know ur facts.....
@MrFinzzz most known it under the US name and most navies will more likely use the us system for that matter. Did I say it was a great inventions? No I reacted to your reaction to someone's reaction who probably thought that it was a great inventions. which it is after a modification as it works well to counter large drones. but that is not what it was invented for.
@terabbs Yep, i see ur not the one i replied to, sorry for that. Nowadays there are atleast 13 different CIWS systems used by navies and the GoalKeeper same as the Phalanx is now an old system and not on par with newer systems like the Polish OSU-35K or even the Turkish Gökdeniz or the German Rheinmetall Millennium. Yes, it could be used for drones, but the effectiveness of these CIWS after all experiences the different navies had through the last 40 years the data shows CIWS systems are not doing as good of a job as they were designed for on short range missiles defence, hence many of the newer/younger CIWS are being retrofitted with short range defensive missiles additions which better destroy an incoming missile then kinetic rounds from an autocannon. A good example for that is the Russian Federation Kashtan/Kortik CIWS and its mobile ground counterpart the Pantsir system that only is fitted with missiles and does not even has an autocannon but the same radars base components setup and datasystem. Basically data over time proven CIWS based on autocannons are not effective enough in comparison of the costs for producing and mainting them, specially not versus missiles, which was their initial design purpose. And for navies missile attacks will be always the main threat and not drones because of the longer ranges and higher in combination with faster delivered payloads then drones. But... it might be usefull systems for converting them into mobile anti-drone land based systems, yes i agree with u on that. The German Gepard system seems to be doing a darn fine job in Ukraine vs incoming Shaheds with the highest efficiency and effectiveness cost base of all anti drone measurements while it is a late "obsolete" 70's system.
The lyrics of our anthem are completely moronic. That we pledge allegiance to king of Spain. And we are from German descent. I don't know any fellow countryman that actually knows the lyrics. Sure we are somewhat patriotic but not very fond of the empty symbolic rhetoric. Most Dutch are pretty 'nuchter', sober in a mental way. It was only when I got drafted that I learned there are rules on how and when raising our flag lol. a Dutchie
@jetzekoole9187 The words of the Wilhelmus are the words of William of Orange, not ours. He was of German descent, he honnered the Spanish king Charles V, because he was in his service. Charles was also Lord of the Netherlands at the time. William inhereted the title Prince of Orange. William is telling the story of the Dutch revolt. The whole Anthem are Williams words.
I don't know if it's still the case but when I went to school as a kid we did get taught the 1st couplet of the anthem but we'd never needed to sing it reguarly. We just got thought it enough to be able to mumble along whenever the occasion arises such as with queens/kings day and some sports events. I think most people would know some 50% to 80% of the text and know enough of the melody to be able to fill in the words to sing along whenever they hear others in a group sing the actual text. I belong to this group.
@erwindegroot8760 nope, the crankshaft existed for centuries. It was Cornelis Corneliszoon van Uitgeest that used it in his invention of the wind powered sawmill.
Bluetooth is largely of Dutch origin. The technology was developed in 1994 by Dutchman Jaap Haartsen while he was working for the Swedish company Ericsson.
Every even when I was young living in Brisbane my father who was a Friesian listening to Radio Netherlands played the national anthem at 5.00 pm every day . I don’t have a clue what they said but can still hum the tune 55 years later . If you ain’t Dutch then you’re not much as the saying went .
The complete Dutch national anthem consistes of 15 stanzas and will take an hour to sing. A waste of school time and we're not a wasteful people. The abbreviated version, sung on official events, only has 2 stanzas, the 1st. and 6th.
Anthem thing: also not quite true. The Wilhelmus is however the oldest national anthem still in use, that was specifically written to galvanise the feeling of "nationality". One could also say that the Dutch Republic was the first modern nation state.
BT is Dutch. Devices first incorporating BT might not be. We used to learn the anthem at school, but most dutch only know the first verse. You'll learn it easy watching all the gold medal in the olympics on Skating. Jenever, especially old lagered ones are better than any gin. Rye Jenever is almost whisky.
We are not brainwashed by the anthem as well when we are young we know the first few lines and tgats it. Knowing the whole anthem is kind of a chalange as well causr it contains like 13 couplets or something. Its long. So when you hear it, you only hear the thirth or so.
Of all crosbreeding stuff. Why pick an apple that got developed for a supermarket chain (Albert Heijn). The Dutch are the reason carots are orange. They used to have way different colors. Now a carrot is hard to imagine not being orange
I was taught the Dutch National Anthem in basic school (somewhere around 10 years old maybe) but it's not like you sing it every day. You were taught once and that's it. I probably only remember the first verse.
The fact that they have to play the national anthem at every sporting event in the US speaks volumes about how great they consider themselves. They apparently genuinely believe they're the greatest of all time, while completely oblivious to the fact that many countries do much better things, and people in many places around the world are far better off. In normal countries, children do learn the national anthem, but otherwise, it's only for certain occasions, or during sports, only when a national team plays against another country.
If it's about our national anthem, we've never learned the actual lyrics in school.. 🙃..We just HUM alongside the melody.. 🤩"Wilhelmus va-ha-han-Nasaue ben ik van Duitsen bloed, het vaderland getrouwe ben ik tot in den doet.. " ..Ehhh, and then I get lost and nobody seemed to care! Thanks for being so open minded, seems so rare these days!
Older Dutchie here, I did learn the national anthem in school, however not had to sing it on regular basis... I lived in the States for 14 years, I know the Star Spangled Banner better than Het Wilhelmus 😂
@dijkb Je hebt helemaal gelijk. Die 24 stond me nog bij omdat een leraar op de HBS (ja zo oud ben ik al) me ooit verteld heeft dat er 24 waren, nooit bedacht om dat te controleren.
But the most important thing what the dutch people handle very good is the water handling. Flooding systems, you have to see. The most public system is the Port of Rotterdam. I coded for it with two other guys from the same company. It is till working perfect come and look. The dutch helped with the florida flooding years ago too. Also all water streams from very little to the big one are handled very well, you have to see it to believe it. Then the very clean drinkwater systems, they have a very high standard. Also look at the history of the Eijselmeer. The dutch people are very good educated and they working hard to make the little country better for the people living there. Nah politics is a different story but not for today. Go and see for your self. The people are very friendly when you ask or need some help.
She says she went 56 but in reality she drove 59.they cut of 3 km so she drove way to fast. These speed rules are for everyones safety not to bully people. If you drive normal you dont have tickets its as dimple as that.
It is silly really. There are many countries who have invented stuff BUT I am proud to be Dutch . 😉Dutchie living in the UK: I try to remember these sort of things and remind myself (and my children ) that there is a lot to be admired in being progressive!! It creates a different and more positive vibe I like to think. But it is not the easiest route. It comes with a lot of criticism for instance 'legalising soft drugs'. Every country has something to say about that. And you know what? It can only work in the Netherlands because we are progressive and not so conservative. Different mindset. Thank you.
Cassette tapes were not invented by the Dutch. The Dutch company Philips did however create the Compact Cassette, which became the defacto standard. But tapes in cassettes were a thing before it.
The Dutch inventor of Bluetooth indeed worked for Swedisch company Ericsson, so that makes the Viking connection somewhat make more sense In the Netherlands, we know the melody of the national anthem and sort of most or all of the first verse. Unfortunately the anthem has 15 versus that nobody knows or sings.
When you take the first letter of the Dutch national anthem you get the name of the writer (in Dutch of course). Most Dutch people know the 1 and the 6 verse. The 1 because it's the first one (bit of history and of course Willem van Nassau) the 6 is choosen because it has a nice christian vibe.
Beide heren werkten voor Ericsson in Emmen. Ericsson had een bedrijf in de Nederland om de Europese wetten te omzeilen omdat Zweden geen lid is van de EU.
aslm basically created the apple phone with out the chip they would not be able. The company was able to created a chip that could store millions of information. Dutch company. Steve Job would not there with the Dutch.
They are not. The cassette tape thing is wrong (in several ways), the anthem thing is wrong. The cassette tape existed long before Philips created the Compact Cassette. The CC was just very practical and successful. Also, created in a Belgian Philips location. So if Bluetooth is Dutch (Dutch location of a Swedish company) then the CC is Belgian.
Blue tooth is Dutch. 4:30 not Honiger but Groningen. Iran bought 7000-10.000 Daf , Dutch , Trucks with automatic gear in 1972 Thorbecke 1840 had the first democratic law. Music is too loud.1🤔🐹🐹
God created the world. The Dutch created Netherlands. .O.K. does not mean au quai but ok means oud Kinderdijk. From Stuyvesant. Gin is Jenever from a berry. Modern Potatoe and Tomato is developped in Holland. Tulip was made great divers in holland. Plastic was invented in Geleen. Underwater boat.
Well we dont learn the song at school and we dont have to sing it daily neither but i think thats on purpose as our national song is kinda crap? I mean the last part u heard her say is litterly i am from german blood.. well im not so i refuse to sing it.I dont aknowledge our coward king either as the only thing they do when war arrives is run of. and yeah the vid missed 2 huge ones stockmarket and ASML in todays world for example ASML gives us a very Unique position worldwide.
NOOOOO NOT just Wi-Fi (as in We Fee) It just does NOT stand for Wireless Fidelity either!!!!!!! That is something the English people made up to say Wi-Fi as you say it. It actually stand for....... NOTHING, really NOTHING at all!! It's like 67 but then worse
Talking about the first gay mariage , and johan Cruyff.... you have to be from Amsterdam.... but mentioning this useless inventions and forgetting how the netherlands is probably the only country in the world that tamed the sea with its delta works..... at least for now.... gay marriage and football.... 🤔 at the end of this vid we know what this vid is about..... alphabet commercial
Ericson is german / Deutsch not Nederlandic. Yes Nederlandic. Fed up that English talking call us getmand. Dutch comes from Deutsch. The Pensilvanian Dutch are named because if that coming from GERMANY / DEUTSCHLAND.
The first succesful car-without - gears was a DAF, a Dutch brand.
The book printing was almost simultaneously invented in the Netherlands and Germany.
Some other mentionable facts:
- We bred the carot orange in honour of the King of Orange
- We invented the stock market in 1602
- We are the first to legalize euthanasia
There was never a king of Orange. It is a principality in the south of France. That is why it is the "Prince of Orange".
It was a dutch engineer (the one named in the video) that invented bluetooth whilst working for the Swedish company Ericsson
Yes, Jaap Hartsen worked at Ericsson subsidiary in Emmen, the Netherlands. Ericsson had multiple offices/factories/research facilities in The Netherlands in Emmen, Rijen en Enschede.
I believe a large part of this Ericsson legacy is now with a much smaller company called ‘Dopple’, located in Assen (NL), that produces high quality custom hearing protection.
It's a Dutch invention .
Most important invention of the Dutch? The Netherlands.
A bit stupid to forget that the dit h invented the idea of shares and the stock exchange. The first company in the world to use shares was the VOC 1602.
Also Christiaan Huygens who invented the pendulum of a clock that makes it more accurate.
To name a few more.
Submarine as well.
We also build new york aka new amsterdam
And sold new amsterdam for suriname hahaha
@nielsvandriesten4386 They were forced to by England if I remember the history lesson correctly.
@timetraveler43 Not really. Back then, food was the most important "currency" and New Amsterdam could not provide it. Part of British Guyana seemed logical back then...
@nielsvandriesten4386 Dat klopt niet helemaal. Engeland pakte het af: defensie werkte toen ook al niet zo....
artificial kidney. Willem Kolff.
And artificial lung. same guy.
That little hole in the round rusk (beschuit) is also a Dutch invention to make it easier to get it out of the packaging. Very important invention.😂😂
the only chip machine manufacturer in the world.. ASML 😎
As a Dutchman: I'm not sure if it's the only one but it IS the most important and most innovative.
@LegoBaby4989 as a Dutchwoman.... kan ik zeggen... yep ! Het zijn toch weer die hollanders ;)
@AngeliqueCornelissen-s1xIs k ben geen Hollander, maar Nederlander.
@JohanDee ja joh.... het is een stukje songtekst ..😛 En ik ben een nederlandse....
okay.. dan ben jij geen Noord-Hollander of wel ? 😎😉😂

@JohanDee ps.... alexander curly 🎶🎶 dat is lang geleden... weer eens effe luisteren....
No Anthem in schools in The Netherlands. The hoses have been invented to fight protesters. Jenever is still going strong, hence the bar fights , devorces and other great stuff.
Aviobrug (airplane trunk) is a Dutch invetio, by aircraft factory Aviolanda.
Don't forget the first stock-excange and The first Republic.
And the modern condom for birth control
Small country, Smart People.
3:49 The person who invented Bluetooth was Dutch, but he was working for Ericson at the time, which is indeed Swedish.
What a great quote: Let people do whatever they want if they don't hurt anyone.
I have another one: don't do to others what you wouldn't want done to you.

Luke 6:31 ("And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them in like manner")
The Dutch also were the first ones who invented the microscope and discovered viruses and bacteria
It is literally in the video, guess you didnt watch it.
@Sarge80 I did all i saw is that they were talking about a telescope not a microscope.. there is a difference y'know?
@Ramon609 The microscope is mentioned at #10, right before the telescope.
@MsHeaven94 Then i must have missed it because i did not hear the person say microscope
Not true, the microscope is true, but viruses and bacteria not.
I've worked for
Nira Emmen Netherlands, "Dutch import radio articles". This company made call systems for hospital staff. They were acquired by Erricson in the 1990s. With the knowledge they had in-house, a Dutch engineer invented blue tooth.
Peter Stuyvesant, first governor of New Amsterdam/New york, living together as different peoples
He introduced OK
Oud Kinderdijk
Did'nt we also devellope the "Goalkeeper Defense System"?
Yes, but the Goalkeeper system is not world wide known, nor widely used. At this present time only 7 navies in the world use it among them the Netherlands and Belgium and South Korea, in the past also the UK and Germany used it on their naval ships.
@MrFinzzz the problem is that there is a US system that is basically a reinvention of the Goalkeeper but with a other name.
@terabbs What does that have to do with great inventions know all over the world and their major impact on our civilisation?
U are talking about an invention of a system only used by navies, this has no major impact on civilisation unlike WIFI or Cassetteplayer etc. etc.
Besides the GoalKeeper actually was later developed then it's Russian counterpart the AK-630 which started in the early 60's while the GoalKeeper started development in the late 70''s.

The dutch person who invented bluetooth worked for ericsson in emmen (drenthe the netherlands).
2027: I will invent the wind-up car.
Yes i Got on school the Dutch anthem as Song, we had to learn 14 parts of it 🤣 i just remember only 2 in that time, my school Time was 1984 to -1994
Dutch here. No anthems at school. En mostly only the 1st couplet from the 15 at sporting events.
The lyrics of our anthem are completely moronic. That we pledge allegiance to king of Spain. And we are from German descent. I don't know any fellow countryman that actually knows the lyrics. Sure we are somewhat patriotic but not very fond of the empty symbolic rhetoric. Most Dutch are pretty 'nuchter', sober in a mental way. It was only when I got drafted that I learned there are rules on how and when raising our flag lol. a Dutchie
@Edwin-pq6dg we use it a lot, nearly every F1 weekend 😂
@jetzekoole9187 The words of the Wilhelmus are the words of William of Orange, not ours. He was of German descent, he honnered the Spanish king Charles V, because he was in his service.

@jetzekoole9187Het is een heel oud volkslied en iedereen die ik ken kent het volkslied.
I don't know if it's still the case but when I went to school as a kid we did get taught the 1st couplet of the anthem but we'd never needed to sing it reguarly. We just got thought it enough to be able to mumble along whenever the occasion arises such as with queens/kings day and some sports events.
I think most people would know some 50% to 80% of the text and know enough of the melody to be able to fill in the words to sing along whenever they hear others in a group sing the actual text. I belong to this group.

I only know the first verse of the Dutch national anthem, but i never sing it.. Yes we have old jenever and jenever . Schiedam is the city of Jenever
Oldest Tricolor national flag. Inspiring flags around the world (France, Russia to name a few)
Anthem thing: also not quite true. The Wilhelmus is however the oldest national anthem still in use, that was specifically written to galvanise the feeling of "nationality". One could also say that the Dutch Republic was the first modern nation state.

The Wilhelmus (Dutch national anthem) has 24 verses, hardly anyone knows all the verses by heart.
Heb je die extra 9 zelf geschreven? Het zijn er 15
@dijkb Je hebt helemaal gelijk.
Die 24 stond me nog bij omdat een leraar op de HBS (ja zo oud ben ik al) me ooit verteld heeft dat er 24 waren, nooit bedacht om dat te controleren.
The first letters of the original old text of verses are "Willem van Nassov": Wilhelmus van Nassau but then the informal version of his name.
@dijkb 🤣🤣🤣
But the most important thing what the dutch people handle very good is the water handling. Flooding systems, you have to see. The most public system is the Port of Rotterdam.

We dont sing it in school
Well, the current Dutch National Anthem isn't the oldest. It was made our National Anthem in 1932. Before that it was "Wien Neerlands Bloed"
But the song itself was way older
WWe also discovered the stock market, shares make the whole world run on things that are not so important, windmills, etc.
We did not invent windmills. We did (possibly) invent the windmill powered sawmill. We did put it to good use that's for certain)
Cassette tapes were not invented by the Dutch. The Dutch company Philips did however create the Compact Cassette, which became the defacto standard. But tapes in cassettes were a thing before it.
@robertx8020 How does this in any way relate to my comment? Why do you bring up CDs?
@rmyikzelf5604 missread
my bad
The Dutch inventor of Bluetooth indeed worked for Swedisch company Ericsson, so that makes the Viking connection somewhat make more sense
In the Netherlands, we know the melody of the national anthem and sort of most or all of the first verse. Unfortunately the anthem has 15 versus that nobody knows or sings.
When you take the first letter of the Dutch national anthem you get the name of the writer (in Dutch of course). Most Dutch people know the 1 and the 6 verse. The 1 because it's the first one (bit of history and of course Willem van Nassau) the 6 is choosen because it has a nice christian vibe.
Beide heren werkten voor Ericsson in Emmen. Ericsson had een bedrijf in de Nederland om de Europese wetten te omzeilen omdat Zweden geen lid is van de EU.
Sometimes we sing the 6th verse. Its about William of Oranjes belief in God.

They are not. The cassette tape thing is wrong (in several ways), the anthem thing is wrong. The cassette tape existed long before Philips created the Compact Cassette. The CC was just very practical and successful. Also, created in a Belgian Philips location. So if Bluetooth is Dutch (Dutch location of a Swedish company) then the CC is Belgian.
@rmyikzelf5604Philips is Dutch.
@pim1234read it again. Hint: Ericsson (Bluetooth) is Swedish.
