Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The area that is now known as the Netherlands has a rich history that extends back two millennia. Much of the area (then geographically very different from today) fell to Roman rule. It was converted to Christianity before 1000 AD. In the 16th Century it firstly embraced Calvinism, then threw off their Spanish rules during the Eighty Years War. Upon independence the Netherlands was prosperous and imperialistic, expanding economically and demographically, and the country was a major power on the global stage. |
