    You forgot prague new town, wich was biggest mega project in medieval Europe.
    "Charles IV ... conceived here the largest urban planning project of the Middle Ages, and at the time, its equal could not be found in Europe. the mid fourteenth century in Europe there was no other city, in which an enclosed building project was organized and executed on such a scale, over two square kilometers. There is no other city, in which 18 to 27 meter-wide roads were created; where an arterial road was wide three-quarters of a kilometer long and over 60 meters wide and in the New Town alone was the central marketplace larger than most entire cities of this time including its walls."

    Angkor in Cambodia is also very impressive; it covered an area that was comparable in size to New York's 5 boroughs combined, it was the largest pre-industrial city on Earth. They also constructed Angkor Wat, which is the largest religious monument on the planet. And lastly, their water management system was very complex.
    I'm also very impressed by the Grand Canal in China.

      @ The modern country of the Netherlands was unexisting and the name was nothing more than a reference to the region made of seperate autonome provinces controlled by foreign empires or a personal union of nobility with the power & importance centered in the southern lands. The Dutch identity was unexisting before the split and simply grouped as Flamingi, after that Dutch a synonym for Germans was used in reference. The shift to Amsterdam with also the Golden age only started because of the willingness to accept the wealthy immigrants fleeing Catholic persecution, the other regions of the modern Dutch country weren’t given this privilege. The Flamingi traders of the Low Countries had been working for the Portuguese exploring & colonizing new lands relocated their operation to protect their business, Amsterdam became an international center for trade, the majority population of Amsterdam being foreign wealthy families also gave their culture of inovation, knowledge of science and entrepreneurship to the Dutch lands for at least a century until this dominant position changed again from outbreaking wars. Flemish today seem to allways be mad against their French speaking citizens while maybe if The Netherlands stopped claiming their history as their own and they Flamignant could stop playing the angry victim, also having so much pride based on others history is a bad look
