- Presentation of the history and contribution of the Netherlands to Western defense and the Atlantic Community.
"Introducing The Netherlands" is part of a series originally designed as "Know your Allies", and finally titled "the Atlantic Community Series".
Its objectives were to familiarize public opinion in each of the member country with the other Alliance members and to emphasize the national contributions to Western culture and political traditions, economic reconstruction and allied defense in the framework of NATO.
The series was produced between 1954 and 1956 and financed by the US government in the context of the Marshall Plan with the cooperation of the Information Service of NATO, and distributed by NATO. The films in the Atlantic Community Series received large non-theatrical distribution and, in some cases, were shown in cinemas and on TV. Language versions were made and distributed with the help of the national governments.
"My country and NATO" tells the story of each one of NATO's members, using a selection of unique archival materials to take you back in time.

Leuk dat we nu Flevoland hebben, Maar Almere had niet gehoeven.
Wel toevallig dat ik je hier tegenkom
@Zymon
Kun je dat toelichten? Lelystad is Leuker?
Hahaha
Precies
Niet gehoeven? Waar moeten 250.000 mensen wonen? Amsterdam?
Funny how he talked about how the Dutch made their own country and later on talked about the 11 provinces. In current day there are 12. The latest province is actually a big chunk of land taken from the sea.
Yeah sure but the movie is from before that time and as thus correct as there being 11 provinces as the 12th one did not exist yet.
Twice the size of Hong kong:)
This documentary is from 1955 as stated in the title, Flevoland only became an official province in 1986.
The last minute or so is spent talking about the early efforts to construct Flevoland.
well we like to call that Flevoland, and it is moslty just farms and some small towns but there is an airfield on there as well
Wat een rust... wat een harde werkers.. Respect voor onze voorouders.
Wat ook alleen maar mogelijk was dankzij de Marshall hulp, iets wat heel vaak vergeten wordt.
This was way more interesting than i thought.
Clothing industries, strong trade unions, oh how the times have changed.
Now we have high literacy and a knowledge driven economy. Providing valuable services that don't need natural resources. It might not be so easy anymore to point at something and say: 'We made this', but we got higher wages and a more stable economy in return. A country built upon industry will eventually collapse when a developing country can do the same thing for less or you run out of natural resources.
Yeah, I thought: "man, back when there was still specialization and not all money flowed to China.. what times". But we have the internet and whatnot now; every period has its charms. Still, perhaps we could learn something from the past!
We still produce and export a lot of stuff, but we're not nearly half as entrepreneurial as we used to be.
Philips goed voor 10% van de export in 1955? Wow... dat is nogal wat.
vergeet niet dat Philips destijds het grootste elektrotechnisch bedrijf van Europa was.
Philips heeft nog steeds de meeste patenten van elk bedrijf ter wereld ook.
Doordat de consumenten elektronica van Philips ronduit bagger is geworden de laatste 15 jaar vergeten mensen dat.
Asml en asmi eyc. Nog steeds voor miljarden
Komt voornamelijk omdat het grootste deel van de landbouw export volgens mij uit Flevoland komt en dat werd toen nog niet zo gebruikt
Heel veel uit Drachten
10% van de export van gloeilampen, niet de hele NLse export.
Ooh, at 18:50 we see the vegetable auction building ('groenteveiling') in Poeldijk. My nan lived across the water.
I feel like Dutch subtitles would make a great addition to this video, as it has high educational value, also to Dutch youngsters who haven't mastered the English language. If so desired, I would gladly volunteer to write these subtitles.
most youngsters speak English...they all go to school. My Daughter learned to speak English at 3 years old.. Her German is very bad though...
Proud to be a Dutchman, altough it is more than Amsterdam, Rotterdam, the Hague and Dordrecht ❤️🇳🇱
Something always frightens me or sticks in my mind when I watch old videos. Most of these people are (long) gone.
Despite having a lower living standard, and shorter life expectancy (and no internet), I believe the people were much happier back then
A large amount of people would disagree.
I'd like to remind you that this is the 50s, racism was still the norm
@@TheB0sss the people who disagree did not live in that time and are ignorant
Thanks for posting this. To a modern Dutchman it's so familiar , yet so foreign.
Glad you enjoyed it
I waited for this one. Thank you for uploading.
Greetings to the people of The Netherlands from Greece! 🇳🇱🇬🇷
Een jaar of 5 geleden heb ik dit originele filmpje als bijbaan gedigitaliseerd vanaf een Betacam tape! :D
Klinkt leuk, maar dat was al niet de master. Gezien wanneer dit gemaakt is en wanneer Betacam ontwikkeld is.
2:15 the 'Lijnbaan' sign is still the same one in 2021
Weird to hear the 11 provinces cuz we got 12 now
That is because in the time this is made Flevoland doesn’t exist
That is not weird at all, Noordoostpolder was first part of Overijssel. Only after Flevoland was reclaimed from the IJsselmeer the province Flevoland was created and the Noordoostpolder reclaimed in 1942 (yes, during WWII) became part of Flevoland.
A very interesting piece of history. The coal and steel community, now the EU. De watersnoodramp, which led to the Deltawerken. The early greenhouses and the developing agricultural industry, which was ahead of its time back then, and still is now. This was the response to the Hongerwinter of '44-'45. Also mentions of the land reclaimation projects, which has sice led to the additon of a province in the 70's. A population of 10 million, which has since grown to 17 million. Quite an insane growth over the last 60 years. The urban area mentioned is probably what is now the Randstad, which goes east toward Utrecht, though it's not one large city - yet.
awesome peek into our history. thanks for sharing.
Movie of Ytzen Brusse (1920-2008); Bert Haanstra was influenced by the narrative style of Ytzen Brusse, when he was a young he worked as a cameraman on one of Brusse’s projects. This short NATO-movie tells you a bit of the development of the Dutch narrative styled documentary, within the boundaries of that genre. This movie comes with flashes from the Wederopbouwtijd and the economic boom. Scenes are filmed in 1953; in the scene with the Queen reading at the beginning of a new parliamentary year she reminds parliament of the Watersnoodramp.
14:40 for the ones who don't know the Dutch national anthem, here it is played by the background orchestra (woven into it of course)
leuk om te zien. Echt van genoten :)
Ik hou van Nederland❤️🇳🇱
By the way , Nederland is the only country in the world that let others change our Name into Netherlands ..it's Nederland ! Beautiful video Nato Thank You so much !!
In her speech at opening of Parliament, queen Juliana mentions the great flood of 1953.
Proud, we are small and modest but great in achieving ❤
Proud to come from here. Always!
"The Dutch spend almost 10% of their budget on defense..."
Man, I miss 1955...
(This is a half-serious joke. Just don't blow it up)
Ik ook mijn vader zit in het leger dus krijg well wat te horen er over
Great to see so many on bikes!
Its hard to believe that modern day industry isnt much diffrent than 66 years ago.
the more things change, the more they stay the same.
dit is een minder geindustrieerde versie van het huidige nederland.
maar het feit dat flevoland gebouwd is sinds de jaren 20, en pas officieel bestond in 1986, 9 jaar voordat ik werd geboren, wow.
ik heb in het begin van de 00's in almere gewoond. en het feit dat de eerste huizen daar pas in 1976 werden opgeleverd is best wel een mind blower
kind of amazing how little has changed!
10% of our budget went to defence back then.. Wish we could tell the NATO this right now
We still do, our biggest enemy (and controlled friend) is the North Sea.
Remeber we Dutch are the only country in the world that has the right for every citizen for good drinking water in the constitution!
And also the oldest still functioning democratic form of a part of goverment the waterschappen (regional water authorities)
we learned to live and coexist with water truh the ages.
Some even say we as a nation are maried with the sea.
Lots of foreign Nato troops like to be stationed here.
Even Nato mariages happen.
I’m learning dutch. May you please translate your comment into dutch for me?
With their own hands they created their country
Great piece of history.
love it
Bless the person who wrote the music at 17:24
Edit: Else van Epen-de Groot
Really enjoy these videos. Ps Did I miss any discussion about the oil industry there?
How fun to see what the Netherlands looked like so long ago
Great docu of a time gone by.
Geweldige docu.
This reminds me of my childhood
Beautiful
The intro looks like one of those sitcom intros where they introduce all main characters.
In die tijd was Nederland nog trots op de boeren en hun efficientie, nu hoor je daar niemand meer over.
10 million people, the good old days.... the Statistics Bureau says we'll be 20 million by 2063.
As of 2021 we have 17,5 million people. Nolonger the 10 mentioned here with 8.5 million in the Randstad here 6 million
And fastest growing population in Europe in 1954! Both catholics as protestants were competing with large families, so 5 to 12 children were common in those days. 10 to 15 years later that was over, "thank god" ....
Cool. A little martial, but I guess that's to be expected from a NATO film.
I love dutch history.
Adorable...
Oceaan VII, that ship became Radio 270, a pirate off the UK coast.
6:22 Very special railroad transport
Интересно как люди жили...
I love to see how so many people commute by bike in the cities. Golden days. Now we're all stuck in car traffic jams.
People still commute by bike nowadays. I would say even more so because there is actual infrastructure for it.
😳😲whut !? i bet even the USA hasn't got such an awesome intro as "... created by God, but the (insert culture name) created the (name)lands"
10% of BNP spent on defence.... ? Wow we are now just over 1% ...
We have 12 provences now, we litererly built another one.
Ja leuk
The Telescope was invented in MIDDELBURG, Zealand, not in Delft or Leiden.
Uit welke jaren zou dit film materiaal zoal vandaan komen? Jaren 50?
1955, staat in de beschrijving.
Well 50s in Aruba must be great
10% of national GDP to defense in 1955, it's like 1.2% nowadays, what the hell happened? (It's the government's fault btw)
The city of holland???
11:10 die rook en schoorstenen...
microscopes made us see what the world us realy made of its one of the most important inventions ever
3:46 those are paintings? not pictures????
The originals are in color, and a bit larger then pictures. 😉
Behold true artisanship.
While god made the world the Dutch made the Netherlands them selfs I LOVE IT
Vergeet niet je helm op te zetten tijdens het tuinieren!
Toen zag Rotterdam er anders uit
de oorlog was pas 10 jaar afgelopen, de halve stad moest nog opgebouwd worden
Je weet wel dat dit na de Tweede Wereldoorlog is?
Voor 1940 nog veeeel anders.
Can we talk about iceland literally being called just "island" in icelandic
which makes sense because "is" means ice in Icelandic :)
There is Holland, and the rest of the world.
And there is the Netherlands, with it's dirty coastal strip called "Holland" ..
12:55 "This in the country that's already the most densely populated in Europe, and probably in the world."
Singapore was number 1, NL number 2 according to this video: th-cam.com/video/1LwWqI98LXA/w-d-xo.html
Interessant
That video isn't exactly accurate, because it leaves out Malta. Now Malta gained independence from the UK in 1964, and while this documentary is from somewhere between 1955 (West-Germany joining NATO) and 1982 (Spain joining NATO), it's probably from the 1950s. Malta has more or less four times the population density of the Netherlands, and that isn't something that you build up over a few decades.
Only Singapore wasn't an independent country until a decade after this documentary was made, in fact it was a crown colony of the UK until 1963! So if the video you linked is accurate then it would be the most densely populated country in the world
True. Although Singapore is a city that is recognized as a country while The Netherlands is a regular country.
Stadstaten worden vaak niet meegerekend, anders was (vroeger) Hong Kong altijd het dichtsbewoond.
De boeren hebben ons groot gemaakt en we moeten ze nu niet in de steek laten.
Epic anime opening
10% van het BBP in defensie.... right.
10% jaarlijks budget naar defensie? Damn.
Also, happy to see some footage of my hometown :D
Toen was 't nog gezellig..
Ja, als je geen cent te makken blijf je wel thuis, gezellig spelletjes spelen, en om 10 uur naar bed omdat verlichting en verwarming anders te duur wordt. 😣
Gezien de huidige energieprijzen misschien wel iets om weer in te voeren. 🤗
10 miljoen mensen? wtf
Turkiye?🥺
🇹🇷 th-cam.com/video/QyeLGnaaMpg/w-d-xo.html
Toen onze landmacht nog mocht oefenen met echte kogels...
10% voor Defensie , daar kun je nu van dromen
Most people seem still not to own a car back then, a rather poor country in compare to the USA.
Now a days you don't need a car, specially when you live in a city, you use a bike, faster, cheaper etc..
