NETHERLANDS - HOLLAND

(1581-1795)

On January 23, 1579, the five provinces of Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Gelderland and Friesland United Provinces formed a federal state during the Union of Utrecht. The province of Overijssel joined the five provinces in the same year, that of Groningen in 1594. In July 1581, the deputies of the northern provinces declared Philip II deposed. In 1795, the French temporarily instituted the Batavian Republic which replaced the United Provinces..
