    The most basic problem was that the kingdoms in Indonesia at that time cooperated with the Dutch to make profits without thinking about the fate of their people. If the kingdoms did not cooperate, of course the Dutch would not easily dominate the archipelago. That is why the kings, regents and officials at that time were employees of the Dutch kingdom. Indeed, the kingdoms in the archipelago were under the domination of western nations but not with their people. There have been rebellions everywhere led by various people who were later raised as heroes.

      @@martijnb5887 agree, the kings has force to coordinate together. For their ppl and their fate, ofc they will accept it. Netherlands use rivalry along the kingdoms including political opposition to get more influence and strengthen the position.
      The key is communication along the kingdoms, there's no person have enough caliber to unite the kingdoms to fight Netherlands.

      @a b It's mainly because the British had many more colonies compare to Dutch. Many of these countries where develop during colonial period and thanks massive British colonial empire their economy can be expanded. Every countries have its own role.
      Singapore is the good example. British develop Singapore from small fishing village to International trading hub, because the need to transport products from China. Modern Singapore just continue the tradition.
      Same goes to Malaya. The massive primary resources exporter. Tin and Rubber. Now the palm oil and petroleum.
      But also thanks to British colonialism, every ex colonies have a very good relationship with each other. Becoming the preferential economic partners.
      Compare to Dutch, they only have Indonesia. The only source of labour, resources and economy. When they rebel, Indonesia were on their own.

    The reason why the Dutch easily conquered the Southeast Asian kingdom was because the impact of mini World War in the Indian Ocean called "War of the League of Indies" prior to the Dutch arrival into the region. Its basically a War between Islamic Nation along the Indian Ocean as well as Ottoman Empire vs Spanish Empire as well as Portuguese. The war was so big, it made some indonesian sultanates became exhausted due to war financing etc. The war claimed many resources throughout Islamic World.
    League Of Indies :
    - Sultanate of Bijapur
    - Sultanate of Ahmadnagar
    - Sultanate of Aceh
    - Sultanate of Bantam (Banten)
    - Sultanate of Kalinyamat (Demak)
    - Sultanate of Ternate
    - Sultanate of Tidore
    - Zamorin of Calicut
    - Sultanate of Golkonda
    - Ottoman Empire
    Vs
    Spanish Empire and its Allies:
    - Portugal
    - Sultanate of Johor
    - Sunda Pajajaran Kingdom
    Ps: This war resulted the Fall of Malacca, Portuguese Annexation of Calicut as well as Goa, Weakened the Sultanate of Banten and Tidore due to war, Rise of Johor Riau Empire, Civil war in Java, Mughal Invasion of Southern Indian Muslim Sultanates, Lost of Portuguese influence in the Western part of Java and Sumatra, Christianization of Islands of Lesser Sunda and Southern Moluccas, Islamization of Former Hindu Sunda Pajajaran Kingdom in West Java as well as the lost of Ottoman influence in the region. The war occured in December 1570 - 1575

    The story in missing an important thing. The Portugese were bringing the spices to Europe from around the world and the Dutch were redistributing the spices to the rest of Europe. After the personal union of Spain and Portugal, Spain did not allow the Dutch to buy spices in Portugal. So they started to get the spices themselves. As many Dutch captains had worked for the Portugese it wasnt hard to find the lucrative Portugese colonies.

      Mahameru or Great Meru is just one of evidence of Hindu, wasn't religion as today but an Ancient region from Indonesia all the way to Europe. As India the significant remaining.
      I am not surprised in Bali 2012 I had a bizarre experience meeting one of my Ancestors from another realm, out of common people logic spiritual understanding. As surrounding of Bali's 4 mountains, is Gate 7 of Earth's Chakra 7th which is Mount Kailash Tibet.
      Called Hindia, Indus, Indo (also Indo Europe and Indo Persia), Indonesia means Indo Nesos, Indo Islands, exactly on center of Equator line. Richest nature on entire world.
      Most humid yet stable weather all year around, alway sunrise at 6 AM to sunset 6 PM.
      Sumatra means Sumer/Summer/Sun/Gold + Tera/Terre/Earth/Land = Mother of Sumeria.
      The highest humidity and with so many volcanoes than anywhere in the world made the things decaying easily, worldwide still don't know about our oldest ancient civilization before the massive eruption of Toba 74000 years ago resulted today world's larget crater lake, volcanic Toba lake with width around 100 kilometers. As our Ancestors were even much more advanced than us today and flee towards today Europe, Middle East, America escaped the eruption larger than Yellowstone USA.
      #Indonesia #Atlantis
      Minangkabau, Batak, Sumatra, Indonesia
      Minangkabau Sumatra = Minoan Europe
      Batak Sumatra = Batak Bulgaria
      Egypt isn't oldest civilization. But Indonesia.
      Bit by bit the veils are uplifted, limited knowledge of present world is incomplete and inaccurate. Including how they west and middle east has been drawing Indonesia too small on world map especially since Mercator 1569 while should be almost as wide as Russia.
      Majority of people don't even know that our Ancestors technology was much more advanced than us now.
      They don't know anything about human civilization before 74,000 years ago the massive eruption of supervolcano Toba on Sumatra shaped today world's largest crater lake on earth. Toba is bigger than Yellowstone USA.
      Again, present education worldwide has very limited knowledge, based on their limited nature.
      Our Ancestors knew about the eruption before it happened and migrated towards West; Middle East, Europe and America. The fact is Indonesia center of the world, richest nature in whole world on center of earth's Equator line, is the root not the other way round.
      Biblical/Alquran/Koran stories including about Adam and Eve are just metaphorical fairytales in fact all those religious stuff are just fairytales.
      Religion = Region rely on legion and legislation.
      Sumatra (Sumatera) = Sumer/Summer/Suma/Sun/Gold + Tera/Terra/Land = Mother of Sumeria

    Both on my fathers side and my mothers side my family is connected to the Dutch East Indies. A great-grandfather from mothers side served in the Dutch colonial army before and during World War 2. My Fathers family was originally German but had moved to the Dutch East Indies centuries ago. They had mixed with the Indonesian population.
    However my great grandfather and his family were kicked out after Independence. To me his son, my grandfather, looks Indonesian but i guess they weren't Indonesian enough. Probably didn't help they were catholic and had kept their German surname. Although i am somewhat sad technically the nation or institution that my family was so connected to doesn't exist any more, we are prabably better of. Now we are just Dutch people again, and my looks are Dutch enough only people with Indonesian roots themselves can still spot the difference.

    I would say the Dutch is able to colonize Indonesia because it is able to gain a foothold in Java. The island of Java at the time and is still today is the population center and rice supplier in the region, so the Dutch were able to secure manpower and political influence over the region.
    The javanese sultanate of Mataram is also the biggest local power that are able to threaten the Dutch. During its height, Mataram are able to siege Batavia twice. The Mataram Sultanate is also the most technological advanced around the area. Even during the Mataram intervention in late 17th century, the technological difference between the Dutch and the Mataram is not much.
    The Dutch ability to control Indonesia is also tied to its ability to control Java, as shown by Java war of 1825 where the rebellion is so costly that the dutch implemented reform to ensure the colonies still profitable, and Indonesian national revolution, which mainly happen in Java and Sumatra, and the Majority of Indonesian guillera militia is from the island of java. The moment the dutch unable to assert control in the island of Java, is the moment they lost control of Indonesia

      The act that shook the heart of local kingdoms who planned to oppose the Dutch was Jan Pieterzoon Coen' massacre of the entire population of Banda. It was so brutal that most kingdoms in the archipelago dared not raise their voice to protest Dutch unfair prices. The took over of Batavia was made easy because of it. It was chosen for VOC capital because it was a striking distance from Malacca.

This is not a case of french people just finding themselves in belgium, but more similar to Ireland, where people had their own language, but the language of the ruling classes then progressively popularized itself through the rest of society, until we get to today's situation, where only older folks speak walloon.

Adding up the Y haplogroup R to 30 percents of Indonesian population also debts of East Netherlands ( Dutch East Indies government, now Indonesia, Since Republic Indonesia is literally a continuation of Dutch East Indies ) 130 billions US dollars. Indonesia literally paid it until 2004. Many people in the Netherlands thought it greedy of the Netherlands to ask for money after what they had done. This was not related to that damage however, but to the possessions of private people.

      Mahameru or Great Meru is just one of evidence of Hindu, wasn't religion as today but an Ancient region from Indonesia all the way to Europe. As India the significant remaining.
      I am not surprised in Bali 2012 I had a bizarre experience meeting one of my Ancestors from another realm, out of common people logic spiritual understanding. As surrounding of Bali's 4 mountains, is Gate 7 of Earth's Chakra 7th which is Mount Kailash Tibet.
      Called Hindia, Indus, Indo (also Indo Europe and Indo Persia), Indonesia means Indo Nesos, Indo Islands, exactly on center of Equator line. Richest nature on entire world.
      Most humid yet stable weather all year around, alway sunrise at 6 AM to sunset 6 PM.
      Sumatra means Sumer/Summer/Sun/Gold + Tera/Terre/Earth/Land = Mother of Sumeria.
      The highest humidity and with so many volcanoes than anywhere in the world made the things decaying easily, worldwide still don't know about our oldest ancient civilization before the massive eruption of Toba 74000 years ago resulted today world's larget crater lake, volcanic Toba lake with width around 100 kilometers. As our Ancestors were even much more advanced than us today and flee towards today Europe, Middle East, America escaped the eruption larger than Yellowstone USA.
      #Indonesia #Atlantis
      Minangkabau, Batak, Sumatra, Indonesia
      Minangkabau Sumatra = Minoan Europe
      Batak Sumatra = Batak Bulgaria
      Egypt isn't oldest civilization. But Indonesia.
      Bit by bit the veils are uplifted, limited knowledge of present world is incomplete and inaccurate. Including how they west and middle east has been drawing Indonesia too small on world map especially since Mercator 1569 while should be almost as wide as Russia.
      Majority of people don't even know that our Ancestors technology was much more advanced than us now.
      They don't know anything about human civilization before 74,000 years ago the massive eruption of supervolcano Toba on Sumatra shaped today world's largest crater lake on earth. Toba is bigger than Yellowstone USA.
      Again, present education worldwide has very limited knowledge, based on their limited nature.
      Our Ancestors knew about the eruption before it happened and migrated towards West; Middle East, Europe and America. The fact is Indonesia center of the world, richest nature in whole world on center of earth's Equator line, is the root not the other way round.
      Biblical/Alquran/Koran stories including about Adam and Eve are just metaphorical fairytales in fact all those religious stuff are just fairytales.
      Religion = Region rely on legion and legislation.

Despite the terrible things that the Dutch colonial government had done, we can’t deny that the Dutch helped unite different parts of the archipelago and eventually form the country of Indonesia.

    At 9:30 the location of 'Johor' on the map was incorrectly shown, occupying the approximate location of Melaka. The correct location of Johor is at the southernmost tip of the Malayan peninsula. Of course, that sultanate referred to was actually that of the Riau-Lingga Johor area, so the islands just south could be shaded as well. 😉

    It was a trade war that demonstrated extraordinary Dutch conquest, organization and tenacity. Even arriving late in these islands on the other side of the world, they defeated the three greatest powers that exploited local trade: Spain, Portugal and Great Britain. They subdued diverse native populations and even after the bankruptcy and dissolution of the VOC in 1799, they continued to dominate the current Indonesia only granting its independence in 1949!

      Exactly. They never ruled, owned or colonised anything in Asia apart from the Philippines. Spain was never the dominant power in Africa or Asia. Never. An inconvenient truth that the Spanish just simply can't accept.
      When they tried during the rule of Philip IV, the Portuguese repelled the Spanish. "A lie repeated 1000 times becomes the truth".
      Spain never had true power in Asia (and Africa). They conquered the Philippines, but that was it. During King Philip II's reign he was bankrupt 5 times. The true power there was always Portugal, and when Portugal's power crumbled there, it was the Dutch, never the Spanish, that took over. And after the English.
      But these American videos are fed Spanish propaganda and not real history, so what do you expect?

      @@Omerath9 well i dont think its spanish propaganda. I think when looking at colonial history, in its different stages, its more easy to fit politics and history being part of empire building, and not smaller players like Portugal. Which was an empire sure, but not one comparable to the british or the mughal. Til the end of the VOC the dutch republic had little saying in the companies policies. VOC operated independently and had its own ideas and goals, which changed as voc leaders changed too. However it is easy to say the Dutch this the Dutch that, instead of saying the Voc pursued this or waged war, or signed treaties that had 2 different versions. The problem with short summary videos is that they tend to overlook the actors of history and gives rise to the BigHistory interpretation. As if the Dutch werent waging their own wars of independece and against the brits as *the VOC was operating in the Indic. For last i'll say that the Dutch didnt wage war on Portugal because of their union with the castillian crown, but because the portuguese had the strategic points and were very weak. It was an easy target. Ultimately portugal won the atlantic war but lost the asian one

      @@pinhass97 Mate, the Portuguese empire was the first global empire in History, and the wealthiest and most prestigious empire in the world from 1480 - 1578. It was the empire everyone in Europe wanted to replicate, not the Spanish empire, which was primarily an American empire built in a more classical, medieval form, highly dependent on natural resources found deep inland, unlike the Portuguese empire which was based on a strategic control of the maritime trade between South America, Africa, the Middle East, India and China, and was considered the true Renaissance empire of the world. Portugal at its peak had colonies in 53 countries, Spain, despite being bigger in territory, only had colonies in 28. Even the Spanish Kings admitted so, and King Charles I tried desperately to increase his power where Portugal was the key player. "If I was King of Lisbon, I would be King of the world", he said. And this was coming from the King of Europe with the mightiest army at one point. Portugal also had a more powerful navy for a long time.
      Calling Portugal a "smaller player", when in many ways Portugal was the BIGGEST player up til the Iberian Union, is reflective of the kind of ignorance that these videos have of Portuguese history. Spain never had an empire in Asia apart from the Philippines, and to call the Portuguese empire in Asia as the "Spanish empire", is reflective of this deep lack of understanding, as it never was. Spain never took control of Portugal's empire. They couldn't even if they tried, as they got bankrupt endless times.
      The reason why Portugal got weaker was due to King Sebastian's demise in Alcácer Quibir. Portugal lost its King, army and nobility overnight, and during the Iberian Union lost its ability to keep sending anual armadas of 15 - 20 ships, as it did during the reign of King Manuel I for instance. That's why Portugal's colonies in the far east became weaker.
      Also, Portugal did not become part of Castille. The Spanish always exaggerate their power during the Iberian Union. They became the most powerful military in Europe for a brief period of time, sure, but in mainland Africa and Asia they were practically non-existent, unlike Portugal who controlled at one point most of the seas between Morocco to Japan, and continued to do so until the Dutch and the English replaced them there. It was only when King Philip IV tried to annex Portugal's now crumbling Asian empire that Portugal risked losing its imperial independence which led to the revolt of the nobles. The deal with Philip II was that Portugal would have a Union of crowns with Spain in the CONDITION that it would continue to rule its own empire. A condition which its successors wanted to change. This fact is ALWAYS ignored. That's why the revolt broke out, which led to a 28 year long war which the Portuguese were able to defeat the Spanish, and get back control of their colonies in Brazil and Angola from the Dutch.

      Portugal during the reign of King Manuel I probably had the most powerful navy in the world, and outnumbered in many wars managed to achieve the impossible. Have you ever heard of Afonso de Albuquerque and how he managed to conquer the Indian Ocean and most of its important outposts? Have you ever heard of the war of the league of the Indies? No navy in Asia could match the Portuguese for 100 years, and even in Europe, only the Spanish navy could just barely match it, no-one else.
      You seriously undermine the power that Portugal had in the 16th century. Portugal was the most powerful naval and commercial empire in the world at one point, let alone in Asia, with some of the most skillful warriors and commanders. I suggest you read more.
