      While the rest are all true, carrots being orange because of the royals is actually most likely a fake connection that just found its way into history books because reasons. Orange carrots because of Dutch royals is actually more likely to be one of the earliest meme's in "modern" day, there is actually zero record of Dutch people cultivating carrots to be orange (while we totally do log everything) and orange carrots have been discovered much further back in historic records etc 😂🤷‍♂

    I had an American pen pal in the late 1980's. It was set up by our teacher to improve our English skills. I got along with this kid fine, though he must have figured we were stuck in the Middle Ages, asking things like if we had a telephone or if I knew what McDonalds was. I dealt with it, until in one letter, he wrote he'd gotten a new CD player for his birthday. He then continued to explain,in great detail, exactly what a CD player was.
    I had enough. I wrote him a very short letter back. It only had two sentences: "The CD player was actually invented in my home town, idiot. I've had mine for four years."
    Funny, I never heard back from him.again.

    • @DenUitvreter
      @DenUitvreter 6 месяцев назад +3

      The first stock exchange actually came about because the VOC saw much more possibilites than anticipated and wanted to reinvest any profit instead of paying dividends. The initial shareholders were often very modest people who put some of their savings into shares to make a buck while helping to fight the enemy, Spain and Portugal. The VOC went primarily to Asia to take the independence war to the enemy there.
      These modest people, maids, carpenters for example, couldn't wait for the dividends but if they could sell their share they would have a handsome ROI anyway. So the shares were sold on the stock exchange mostly by modest people to the richest people who could wait it out. It would take the VOC up ot 1633, 31 years therefore to pay it's first dividend to the shareholders.

    By keeping the trees in water (sea at first, harbor next) in big floating packs, the sugary resin was dissolved, and after drying for a few weeks, entire tree trunks would go through the sawmill into evenly thick, straight, planks. The first industrial revolution!

    Jaap Haartsen was working for a Swedish company with a bunch of non-Dutch people, called Ericsson, which started the project for short-range radio communication for wireless headphones in 1989, which would become Bluetooth. So i wouldn't exactly regard Bluetooth as a Dutch invention. Yes one of the primary developers was Dutch, but the company he worked for and led part of the development for was Swedish, it's literally why it's called Bluetooth, ironically the name of a Danish king, but one that united modern southern Sweden, Norway and Denmark. The Bluetooth logo is Harald Blåtands bind rune (first letter of first and last name combined).

      One of the four scientific instruments on board is MIRI (the Mid InfraRed Instrument). Unlike the other scientific instruments aboard, MIRI has not been designed and built by space agencies NASA and ESA, but by an international consortium of institutes. (European institutes from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom).
      The Netherlands (Ewine van Dishoeck i.g.) developed and built the heart of the MIRI Spectrometer, a hall of mirrors that operates at an extremely low temperature of 6 Kelvin (-267 Celsius). The Optical Infrared Group of The Netherlands Research School for Astronomy (NOVA) was responsible for this, and there were contributions from TNO, ASTRON, SRON and dozens of Dutch companies.

Oh and smaller shout-out to Philips for standardized screwdrivers, flat screens (in cooperation with LG), the mentioned cassettes & discs (in cooperation with Sony), a f*ckton of medical equipment & more.
    Honestly the list goes on and on and (as a dutchie) i don't even know half of it, we're not very patriotic here tbh, to us it's just normal 😂
    You do hit the nail on the head about this being tied into the directness/openness, it does help a lot that there is very little "class separation" in companies, if i can just tell the boss "this thing i was told to make for you is honestly a sh*t idea, wtf bro?" then i'm going to actually do that if i have a better idea & the boss knows to at least consider my input because of our country's history & other dutch companies being extremely successful by simply listening to their employees 🤷‍♂
    And that's not just the case in only some of our best rated sectors like tech or greenhouse farming or whatever either, if i work at some road surfacing company and have some idea for a better road surface they are going to listen & consider it as well, thats why so many so wildly different things come from the Netherlands, if you have a good idea about ANYTHING then somebody will very happily fund it and 95% of those folks won't be a d*ck about sharing the profits with you because they're already crazy rich and taxed to hell for their riches anyway lol.

Then the founder (Meneer Philips) retired and the regular CEO types started one efficiency round after another, cutting out the very research center that had come up with all of those ideas that did turn out profitable.

    The Dutch also innovated many militairy naval and army tactics, most during their golden age, which coincided with the 80-years war. Land army tactics and formations were innovated by Maurice of Orange, the son of William the Silent, while admiral de Ruijter implemented efficient flag communication between ships. A not very known fact is that the British army that defeated Napoleon at Waterloo had a very sizeable Dutch contigent, of which Wellington spoke very highly. As always in these cases, history was rewritten by the victors, so some British field commanders later blamed all sorts of mishaps on the Dutch in their memoires, primarily to shift blame rom their own mistakes to another party.

    Many things blew my mind, for sure proud off my country. One side note, many things are copies from known products and renamed with a twist, so I don't know if the dutch can take all the credits. Shall we say, we all influence eachother and make good things together. It's sometimes like an unknown person who comes up with an idear (person or country) and somebody else runs with it, they did it together.... And some exceptions are there, true inventions ...
