| Since the Early Modern Era, the '''Netherlands''' have been seeking prosperity at home by controlling trade overseas. Their ingenious merchants and shipbuilders drove innovation in different fields related to commerce: finances, credit, and colonization. This strategy led them to found great chartered companies that strove to establish colonial domains in America, Africa and Asia. After the Napoleonic Wars, the Dutch Government took full control of the colonies that once belonged to the VOC (Dutch East-Indies Company) and the GWIC (Dutch West-Indies Company).
| | 自近代早期以来，“尼德兰”就一直通过控制海外贸易来谋求国内繁荣。他们精明的的商人和造船者推动了与商业有关的不同领域的创新: 金融、信贷和殖民。这种策略导致他们建立了伟大的特许公司，并努力在美洲、非洲和亚洲建立殖民地。拿破仑战争之后，尼德兰政府完全控制了曾经属于 '''VOC''' ( 荷属东印度公司) 和 '''WIC''' ( 荷属西印度公司) 的殖民地。 |

|
| At the 1815 Vienna Convention, the former Austrian Netherlands (which more or less now makes up {{flag|Belgium}}) were annexed to the seven Northern Dutch provinces to make up the newly constituted Kingdom of the Netherlands. But by 1830, tensions had risen to such a point between the Protestant northern provinces and the Catholic southern provinces that a civil war lead to the secession of the Flemish and Walloon provinces and the recognition by the {{flag|United Kingdom}} and {{flag|France}} of the newly founded Kingdom of Belgium.
| | 在1815年的维也纳会议上，前奥属尼德兰( 现在或多或少构成了{{flag| 比利时}} 被并入尼德兰北部的七个省份，组成了新成立的尼德兰王国。但是到了1830年，北部新教省份和南部天主教省份之间的紧张局势达到了如此程度，以至于内战导致佛兰芒省和瓦隆省脱离，并使{{flag| 联合王国}} 和{{flag| 法国}} 承认新成立的比利时王国。 |
| | 尼德兰直到1839年的伦敦条约，才正式承认比利时的独立，所有大国都在条约中保证了他们的独立。1914年德国入侵比利时，无视普鲁士签署的”一纸空文”是英国卷入第一次世界大战的主要原因。 |
|
| |
|
| The Netherlands did not officially recognize Belgium's independence until the Treaty of London in 1839, in which all of the great powers guaranteed their independence. Germany's invasion of Belgium in 1914, ignoring the "scrap of paper" which Prussia had signed, was a major reason for the entry of the United Kingdom into World War I.
| | === 初始位置 === |
| | 在[[欧洲]], 尼德兰的领土与它的近邻相比无疑是小巫见大巫: {{flag|法国}} ，{{flag|普鲁士}} ，和{{flag|联合王国}}。在欧洲之外，荷兰的殖民地相当广阔: 加勒比地区的三个岛屿(库拉索、阿鲁巴岛和荷属西印度群岛的圣马丁) ，苏里南的两个省(圭亚那) ，以及[[非洲]的几个较小的沿海殖民地。其殖民帝国的大部分位于印度尼西亚，荷兰人控制着苏门答腊岛、苏拉威西岛、摩鹿加群岛、婆罗洲的南部和新几内亚的西半部以及一些小岛，除了自己的土地，它还是{{flag|卢森堡}}的领主。 |
| | 事实上，尼德兰最初的位置，在历史上是相当不准确的，因为荷兰在1836年时只控制了苏门答腊岛，爪哇岛和苏拉威西岛的海岸。这些领土的大部分在1860年以前都不是殖民地。 |
|
| |
|
| ==Initial Position==
| | 尼德兰的主要文化是尼德兰文化，但是佛兰德斯文化是被接受的。爪哇文化和摩鹿加文化融入了荷兰王国的人口结构，尽管它们代表了荷兰印尼众多的殖民人口，而这些人口并没有考虑到国内政治。整个1836年，荷兰作为一个[[次强]]，国际地位是在第8名到第11名之间波动。 |
|
| |
|
| In [[Europe]], the Dutch territory is by all means modest compared to its immediate neighbours : {{flag|France}}, {{flag|Prussia}}, and the [[United Kingdom]]. Outside of Europe, the Netherlands' colonial domain is, on the contrary, quite extensive: three islands in the Caribbean (Curaçao, Aruba within Dutch Zulia and Sint-Maarten in the Dutch Northern West-Indies), two provinces in Suriname (Guyana), and also several smaller coastal colonies in [[Africa]]. The bulk of its colonial empire, though, lies in Indonesia where the Dutch control the islands of {{flag|Java}}, most of Sumatra, Sulawesi, the Moluccas, the southern part of Borneo and the western half of New Guinea as well as an handful of smaller islands.
| | ===经济=== |
| In addition to its own lands, it is also the overlord of {{flag|Luxembourg}}.
| |
|
| |
|
| Actually, the Dutch initial position is quite historically inaccurate, as the Dutch only controlled small posts in the coast of Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi in 1836. most parts of these territories were not colonized before 1860.
| | 与{{flag|联合王国}}，{{flag|法国}} ，或者尼德兰南部(1836年，{{flag|比利时}})不同 ，尼德兰北部并没有早早开始工业化。经济是以农民、劳动者的产出以及更多的剥削为基础的，以及对亚洲更具异国情调和利润丰厚的资源的开发。预算是稳定的，如果需要的话，政府可以通过向荷兰国家银行(Dutch National Bank)借款来支持其第一批政策。因此，尼德兰不会从一群狂热的资本家开始，他们可能会掀起经济现代化所需的工业革命。要做到这一点，尼德兰政府将需要依靠(国家焦点)来培养最初几个本土的尼德兰资本家。 |
|
| |
|
| The Netherlands main culture is Dutch but Flemish is an accepted culture. Javanese and Moluccan cultures are blended into the Kingdom's demographics although they represent the much more numerous colonial populations of Dutch Indonesia which are not taken into account for domestic politics. Throughout 1836, the Netherlands' overall position as a [[secondary power]] should oscillate between the 8th and 11th position with minimal input.
| | 尼德兰经济增长面临的另一个挑战是，即使在尼德兰本土，识字率也相对较低。这种特性破坏了荷兰的技术研究，必须在最初几年内予以纠正，以便这个国家不落后于其强大的邻国。 |
|
| |
|
| ===Economy=== | | === 决议与任务=== |
|
| |
|
| Unlike the [[United Kingdom]], [[France]], or the southern Netherlands (in 1836, [[Belgium]]), the northern Netherlands did not get an early start at industrialization. The economy is based off the output of farmers, labourers as well as the exploitation of more exotic and very lucrative resources [[RGO]] in Asia. The budget is stable and there is leeway for the government to back its first policies by borrowing from the Dutch National Bank if need be. Thus, the Netherlands do not start with a class of avid {{icon|capitalists}} that could upstart the industrial revolution needed for the modernization of the economy. To do so, the Dutch government will need to rely on [[National Focus]] to nurture the first few homegrown Dutch capitalists.
| | 唯一可供玩家使用的尼德兰独特的[[ 决议]] 是签署[[ 伦敦条约]] ，放弃尼德兰在比利时的领土，以换取[[ 威望]] 和与8个[[ 列强]] 和比利时的[[ 关系]] 。 |
|
| |
|
| Another challenge to the growth of the Dutch economy is the relative low level of literacy even on home soil. This characteristic spoils the Dutch technological researches and must be corrected within the first few years so that the country doesn't lag behind its powerful neighbours.
| | ===发展战略=== |
|
| |
|
| ===Decisions and Missions===
| | 从1836年1月1日起，尼德兰王国有了两条主要发展道路: 重新合并{{flag|比利时}}，或者继续前进，在其他地方弥补损失，尽管这两种策略并不互相排斥。玩家可能希望避免签署伦敦条约(以免失去比利时的核心) ，但要打消任何迅速重新征服尼德兰南部的想法，以编织一个外交网络，使英国或法国干预的可能性降低。 |
|
| |
|
| The only uniquely Dutch [[decision]] available for the player is to sign the [[Treaty of London]] that relinquishes Dutch cores on Belgium in exchange of [[prestige]] and better [[relations]] with the 8 [[Great power]]s and Belgium.
| | ==== 策略 A 吞并比利时==== |
| | |
| ==Buildup Strategy== | |
| | |
| From January 1, 1836, two main paths are set up for the Kingdom of the Netherlands: reabsorb [[Belgium]] or move on and make up for the losses elsewhere although both strategies are not mutually exclusive. The player might want to avoid signing the Treaty of London (so as not to lose cores on Belgium), but eschew any idea of a rapid reconquest of the southern Netherlands in order to weave a diplomatic web that would make British or French interventions less likely.
| |
| | |
| ===Strategy A (Annexing Belgium)=== | |
| [[File:1836NetherlandsPOP.jpg|thumb|left|300px|The Dutch demographics as of January 1st 1836.]] | | [[File:1836NetherlandsPOP.jpg|thumb|left|300px|The Dutch demographics as of January 1st 1836.]] |
|
| |
|
| As the Netherlands start with a [[Casus belli]], but one has to be aware that the United Kingdom will intervene because it considers the rebelling state as part of its [[sphere of influence]]. In all probability, [[Prussia]] will offer the Dutch government an alliance in the first few days of January 1836, and in the interest of fending off a British and/or French intervention, it is best to accept it. It is also possible to seek an alliance with both the United Kingdom and/or France within the first few months, but, Netherlands have relatively bad relations with both countries.
| | 当荷兰开始宣战时，我们必须意识到，英国将会介入，因为它认为比利时是其势力范围的一部分。在1836年1月的头几天，[[ 普鲁士]] 很可能会向荷兰政府提出一个联盟要求，为了抵御英国和（或）法国的干预，最好是接受它。也有可能在最初几个月内，同时寻求与英国和（或）法国结盟，但荷兰与这两个国家的关系相对较差。 |
| | |
| Other alliances can easily be struck with {{flag|Austria}} or {{flag|Denmark}} but in any case, the player must make allies before declaring war on Belgium. Throughout the conflict, the Dutch government will need to borrow large sums of money in order to provide the army with enough supplies, the player will be able to deal with debt repayment once the conflict is over. Still, one has to keep track of loan interests so that they do not overtake the State's overall budget and push the Dutch government in to defaulting. Moreover, once the Belgian industries are (once again) apart of the Dutch Kingdom, Wallonian and Flemish capitalists will jumpstart the creation of factories in Holland, Gelderland and Friesland.
| |
| | |
| The Belgian forces are strong enough to match the Dutch army so mobilizing the Dutch reserve isn't a luxury the player can do without.
| |
|
| |
|
| The best tactic is to wait for the Belgian forces to attack. As months pass by, a British landing in Holland, Zeeland, or Bruges is very likely so stationing Dutch brigades on these coastal provinces isn't advisable although occupying Bruges should be one of the player's first concern. When the British try their hand at a seaborne invasion, the Prussian forces will most likely help in driving them back to the sea. As Belgium's occupation is complete, annexation of the rebelling provinces will be possible, but the war will most likely drag on for a few months if not years with the United Kingdom.
| | 其他联盟可以很容易地与{{flag|奥地利}}或{{flag|丹麦}}发生冲突，但在任何情况下，玩家必须在向比利时宣战之前结盟。在整个冲突过程中，荷兰政府需要借入大量的资金，以便为军队提供足够的补给，一旦冲突结束，玩家将能够处理债务偿还。尽管如此，我们还是必须关注贷款利息，这样它们就不会超过政府的总体预算，从而迫使荷兰政府违约。此外，一旦比利时工业(再次)超越尼德兰王国，瓦隆和佛兰德资本家将迅速开始在荷兰、盖尔德兰和弗里斯兰建立工厂。 |
|
| |
|
| Waging naval war on the British navy will only lead to annihilation of the Dutch squadrons, so it is best to leave them in port. Most likely, British forces will land and occupy some of the lesser Dutch colonies : Suriname in South America, the Western half of New Guinea, Bali, Sulawesi, or even Sumatra. Recruiting Indonesian troops in provinces where manpower allows it might also help Dutch colonials in defeating any tentative British invasion in Indonesia. Down the line, Prussia might be able to secure a White peace with the United Kingdom or, if the Dutch State need to pacify London in a quicker fashion, it may offer cession of Dutch Guyana (Suriname) or any other inconsequential colony in Africa, for example.
| | 比利时军队足够强大，可以与尼德兰军队抗衡，所以调动尼德兰后备人力对于玩家来说是不可或缺的。 |
|
| |
|
| Once order is restored in Belgium and peace has been reached with the United Kingdom, the Dutch government has to be wary of a French declaration of war. Paris will most likely seek to add Wallonia and/or Flanders to its territory (or force the Dutch State to release Belgium/Wallonia/Flanders) if the Franco-Dutch relationships are not warming up by then. Keeping up with the Prussian alliance might well be the solution to avoid losing back the southern provinces. On the other hand, a unified Germany could prove to be an even bigger threat than France so the Netherlands might want to play both alliances to maintain a continental equilibrium in Europe.
| | 最好的策略是等待比利时军队进攻。几个月后，英军很有可能在荷兰、西兰或布鲁日登陆，因此在这些沿海省份驻扎军队是不可取的，尽管占领布鲁日应该是玩家的首要考虑之一。当英国人试图海上入侵时，普鲁士军队很可能会把他们赶回大海。随着比利时的占领结束，兼并他们将成为可能，但与英国的战争很可能会拖延几个月，甚至几年。 |
| | 向英国海军发动海战，只会导致尼德兰海军的灭亡，所以最好把他们留在港口。最有可能的是，英国军队将登陆并占领一些较小的荷兰殖民地: 南美洲的苏里南，新几内亚的西半部，巴厘岛，苏拉威西，甚至苏门答腊岛。在人力允许的省份招募印度尼西亚军队，也可能有助于荷兰殖民者击败英国对印度尼西亚的试探性入侵。从长远来看，普鲁士或许能够与英国达成白和，或者，如果尼德兰政府想要更快地占领伦敦，它可能会提出割让荷属圭亚那(苏里南)或者非洲任何其他无关紧要的殖民地。 |
| | 一旦比利时恢复了秩序，与英国达成了和平协议，尼德兰政府必须警惕法国宣战。如果法尼关系到那时还没有升温，巴黎很可能会寻求将瓦隆尼亚和/ 或法兰德斯纳入其领土( 或迫使尼德兰政府释放比利时/ 瓦隆尼亚/ 法兰德斯) 。与普鲁士保持联盟，可能是避免失去南方省份的解决方案。另一方面，统一后的德国可能比法国更具威胁，因此尼德兰可能希望同时利用两个联盟，以维持欧洲大陆的平衡。 |

|
| ===Strategy B (Ratifying the Treaty of London)=== | | ====策略 B 批准伦敦条约==== |
| [[File:1866NetherlandsFactories.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The Dutch economy needs to target specific production domains that will enable to support itself even in global downturns.]] | | [[File:1866NetherlandsFactories.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The Dutch economy needs to target specific production domains that will enable to support itself even in global downturns.]] |
|
| |
|
| War at home might be too much for some players that want to follow a less risky and more historical path. In this case, up-starting the Dutch industrial revolution is the first challenge of the Dutch government. The Conservatives in power (''Conservatieven'') allow the player to assist in funding industrial projects crafted by the capitalists.
| | 对于一些希望走一条风险更小、更具历史意义的道路的玩家而言，国内战争可能过于沉重。在这种情况下，启动尼德兰工业革命，是荷兰政府的第一个挑战。当权的政党( “保守派”) 允许玩家协助资助资本家精心策划的工业项目。 |
| | |
| In order to have some of these projects off the ground, though, the Netherlands must use their National focus to promote a homegrown class of capitalists. The Holland Region or State, by being the most densely populated area of the Netherlands is a prime contender to be the target for such social experiments. Once construction of the first factory is underway, the National focus must be switched to encourage Holland's farmers and labourers to convert into craftsmen (and later on, clerks). In turn, these capitalist from Holland, Zeeland and Utrecht will fund the construction of railways across the country, and set up industries in Gelderland or Friesland.
| |
| | |
| Moreover, one of the urgent challenges that the Dutch government must tackle is the low literacy of its population compared with France, Scandinavian nations, or especially German minors (this is especially true if Belgium was brought back into the fold as both Flemish and Wallonian populations suffer from anemic levels of literacy). In order to put Dutch research on the fast track, the government will need to promote education by funding it properly (over 90% on the [[Budget]] screen), promote clergymen with the use of the National focus, and target specific cultural technologies like '''Idealism''' or '''Positivism'''. Once each European Dutch regions sports more than 2% clergymen, the National focus can be put to other uses.
| |
| | |
| Indonesia's RGOs will come off as very profitable early on. One might at to those, by taking {{flag|Johore}} with (precious metals) and colonizing Alor (tropical wood). Starting in the 1870s-1880s, some of the Indonesian provinces RGOs will switch to produce oil which won't be of much use before it can be converted into fuel and then bought for civilian and military motorized vehicles. In any case, the Netherlands are poised to become in the late 19th Century, a top producer of many novel industrial and consumers goods.
| |
| | |
| It is important to subsidize the continued existence of the first few Dutch industrial productions whilst researching industrial and commercial technologies to improve the efficiency of their production to keep the Dutch industrial complex within the top 8 industrial nations because prestige or military might be harder to get by. To this end, Conservatives need to be kept in place at least long enough until workers can switch easily between factories if one's production takes a temporary turn for the worse and avoid mass unemployment that, in turn, targets immigration out of the country. The Liberal parties (''Liberale Partij'', but also the ''Rooms-Katholieke Partij'' if you have annexed Flanders) and Anarcho Liberals will not tolerate the government mingling in the economy and subsidizing or funding industrial activities directly will not be possible. On the contrary, to remain solvent, the Dutch government must make sure that subsidies are employed only as a temporary measure and are not putting the State's finances in shambles for too long (more than 12–24 months).
| |
| | |
| === Strategy C (Remove the british influence in Belgium before the attack) ===
| |
| If one wants to annex [[Belgium]], but sees the British's armies as a too big challenge, one can try to raise to [[Great power]] and raise to friendly status in Belgium, without signing the treaty. This way one can remove [[Great Britain]] as sphere leader and then attack Belgium.
| |
| Belgiums armies alone is quite easy to defeat without British intervention.
| |
| If one is lucky, [[Belgium]] will raise to Great power itself or fall to a revolution, which will result in that the British influence is lost and Belgium will be open for an assault.
| |
| Be wary that even after [[UK]] has lost influence in Belgium they can still share an ordinary alliance.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Strategy D (Annexing a part of Belgium and ratifying the Treaty of London)===
| | 为了让这些项目得以启动，尼德兰必须利用他们的国家关注点，来推动一个本土资本家阶层。荷兰地区，因为是尼德兰人口最密集的地区，是这种社会实验的首要目标。一旦第一家工厂开始建设，全国的焦点必须转移到鼓励尼德兰的农民和劳工转变为工匠( 以及后来的职员) 。反过来，这些来自荷兰，西兰和乌得勒支的资本家，将资助全国的铁路建设，并在盖尔德兰或弗里斯兰建立工业。 |
| | 此外，荷兰政府必须应对的一个紧迫挑战是，与法国、斯堪的纳维亚国家，尤其是德国的未成年人相比，荷兰人口的识字率较低(如果比利时重新回到荷兰，因为佛兰德和瓦隆人的识字率都很低，情况尤其如此)。为了使荷兰的研究走上快车道，政府需要通过适当的资助来促进教育([[预算]]屏幕上超过90% 的资金) ，利用国家焦点来促进神职人员的工作，并针对特定的文化技术，如“‘理想主义’或‘实证主义’。一旦每个欧洲荷兰省份都有2% 以上的神职人员，国家的重心就可以转移到其他用途。 |
| | 印度尼西亚的公司在早期会非常有利可图。开采{{flag|柔佛}}(贵金属)与和殖民阿洛(热带木材)。从19世纪70-80年代开始，印度尼西亚的一些省份将转向生产石油，这些石油在转化为燃料，然后购买民用和军用机动车辆之前用处不大。无论如何，荷兰在19世纪末，已经准备好成为许多新奇工业品和消费品的顶级生产国。 |
|
| |
|
| Annexing [[Belgium]] will certainly guarantee the Netherlands to become a great power; however, many other great powers such as France and Britain will likely to be hostile toward Netherlands. Ratifying the Treaty of London will surely demote the Netherlands from being a great power statues and get influenced by the other great powers. Thus, it is a common dilemma for neophyte and many players. Yet, there is a secure way for the Netherlands to become a great power and maintain good relationships with other powerful nations: Annexing a part of Belgium and ratifying the treaty of London.
| | 在研究工业和商业技术以提高其生产效率的同时，补贴最初几个荷兰工业生产的继续存在是很重要的，这样可以使荷兰工业保持在前8个工业国家之内，因为声望或军事可能更难以维持。为此目的，保守派需要至少保持足够长的时间，直到工人可以轻松地在工厂之间转换，如果一个工厂的生产暂时恶化，为避免大规模失业，要反过来，移民出国。自由党(“自由党” ，还有“房间-卡索里克党” 如果你已经吞并了法兰德斯，还有“房间-卡索里克党” )和无政府自由党不会容忍政府混入经济，补贴或直接资助工业活动将是不可能的。相反，为了保持偿付能力，荷兰政府必须确保补贴仅作为临时措施使用，并且不会让国家财政长期(超过12至24个月)处于混乱状态。 |
|
| |
|
| Annexing a part of Belgium: Right from the start, it is crucial for the Netherland to ally with Prussia. Then, wait until France declares war on Britain and wipes out the Belgium army or just declare war on Belgium with Prussia by using the restore order casus belli(Do not use any other casus bellis). After short and intense battles with Belgium, it will eventually surrender itself toward Netherlands. Accept Belgium’s surrender, wait for few months, and give up a part of Belgium (whether Wallonie or Flanders) toward Britain. By giving up just one Belgium territory toward Britain, the Netherlands will be able to end the war quickly with Great Britain and retain or maintain the great power statues.
| | ==== 策略 C 在战争前消除英国在比利时的影响 ==== |
| | 如果想兼并[比利时] ，但又认为英国的军队是一个太大的挑战，他可以在不签署条约的情况下，努力提升为[[次强]]并在在比利时取得友好地位。这样就可以除去[大不列颠]的主导地位，然后进攻比利时。 |
| | 没有英国的干涉，光是比利时军队就很容易被打败。 |
| | 如果幸运的话，[比利时]将会崛起成为一个强大的国家，或者陷入一场革命，这将导致英国的影响力丧失，玩家就可以进攻比利时。 |
| | 要小心，即使[英国]在比利时失去了影响力，他们仍然可以结成普通的联盟。 |
|
| |
|
| Ratifying the treaty of London: After the Netherlands has gained a part of Belgium, it is time to promote neutrality and harmony with other great nations. Quickly restore relationships with Great Britain and sign the treaty of London. By accepting the treaty, the Netherlands will be able to maintain good relationships with neighboring great nations
| | ====策略 D 吞并部分比利时，并批准伦敦条约==== |
|
| |
|
| == So, what happens next? ==
| | 吞并{{flag|比利时}}肯定会保证尼德兰成为一个大国，然而，许多其他大国，如法国和英国，可能会对尼德兰怀有敌意。批准《伦敦条约》肯定会贬低尼德兰作为大国的地位，并受到其他大国的影响。因此，对于新手和许多参与者，这是一个共同的困境。然而，尼德兰要成为一个强大的国家并与其他强大的国家保持良好的关系，有一个安全的途径: 兼并比利时的一部分，批准伦敦条约。 |
|
| |
|
| The Netherlands must seek to expand her colonies in Asia and Africa, in order to maintain its status as a powerful nation. Demand concessions from Morocco and other African countries and later, annex as many African countries as possible. Establish protectorates in Asia by invading {{flag|Atjeh}}, Dai Nam, {{flag|Siam}}, {{flag|Brunei}}, and other southeast Asian countries.
| | 吞并比利时的一部分。从一开始，尼德兰就必须与普鲁士结盟。然后，等到法国向英国宣战，消灭比利时军队，或者用恢复秩序宣战借口向比利时宣战(不要使用任何其他宣战借口)。在与比利时短暂激烈的战斗之后，它最终会向尼德兰投降。接受比利时的投降，等待几个月，并放弃比利时的一部分(不管是瓦隆尼还是法兰德斯) ，向英国投降。只要把比利时的一块领土交给英国，荷兰就能迅速结束与大不列颠的战争，并维持大国的地位。 |
| [[File:Dutch Indonesia.jpg|thumb|The Dutch holdings in South East Asia]]
| | 批准《伦敦条约》。在荷兰得到比利时的一部分后，是时候与其他大国保持中立与和谐了。迅速恢复与英国的关系，并签署伦敦条约。通过接受条约，尼德兰将能够与邻国保持良好的关系 |
|
| |
|
| During the expansion process, many neighboring countries will often request military access. It is crucial for the Netherlands to accept every military access request as they increase relationships with other countries. In this way, great powers like Austria and France will be likely to offer alliances.
| | === 所以接下来呢? === |
|
| |
|
| Don’t be reluctant to rely on your allies, because the Netherlands(even if all of Belgium is annexed) is a small country. Even if the Netherlands manages to colonize the majority of Africa, it will still require much assistance from other nations. A possible next step is annihilating Russia with France and Austria, as they are powerful allies. An alliance with Sweden could help start a war with Russia, as Russia declares war on Sweden regularly. Because defeating Russia will prove difficult, the Netherlands should call Austria and France into the war. As result, the Netherlands would have two strong allies, Austria and France, against Russia.
| | 荷兰必须寻求扩大在亚洲和非洲的殖民地，以保持其强大国家的地位。要求摩洛哥和其他非洲国家让步，然后尽可能多地吞并非洲国家。通过侵略{{flag|亚齐}} ，{{flag|大南}}，{{flag|暹罗}} ,{{flag|文莱}}和其他东南亚国家来建立亚洲的保护国。[文件: 荷兰印尼，东南亚荷兰控股公司]ei |
|
| |
|
| ==Colonization of Africa==
| | 在扩张过程中，许多邻国经常要求军队进入。在荷兰与其他国家加强关系的同时，接受每一个军事准入请求是至关重要的。通过这种方式，像奥地利和法国这样的大国，很可能会结盟。 |
| The Netherlands starts with a big deficit of colonial points, meaning that it must either expand its coastal Regions in Europe (most easily by annexing Belgium) or release Asian holdings to gain enough colonial points to expand much more.
| |
|
| |
|
| The player may decide to release [[Java]] to free up colonial power. If this is done while the Netherlands is a [[great power]], Java will enter the Netherlands' [[sphere of influence]]. One can also invade a minor European nation like [[Denmark]] for its shores.
| | 不要不情愿依靠你的盟友，因为尼德兰(即使整个比利时被吞并)仍是一个小国。即使荷兰成功殖民了非洲大部分地区，它仍然需要其他国家的大量援助。下一步可能是与法国和奥地利一起歼灭俄罗斯，因为他们是强大的盟友。与瑞典结盟可能有助于与俄罗斯开战，因为俄罗斯定期向瑞典宣战。因为打败俄国很困难，尼德兰应该让奥地利和法国加入战争。因此，尼德兰会有两个强大的盟友，奥地利和法国，来对抗俄国。 |
|
| |
|
| | =非洲殖民= |
| | 尼德兰一开始在殖民点方面存在巨大的不足，这意味着它要么扩大欧洲沿海地区(最容易的方法是吞并比利时) ，要么释放亚洲殖民，以获得足够的殖民点，进一步扩张。 |
| | 玩家可以决定释放[[爪哇]]来释放殖民势力。如果在尼德兰成为[[列强]]的时候做到这一点，爪哇将进入荷兰的[[势力范围]]。玩家也可以侵略像[丹麦]这样的小欧洲国家的海岸。 |

The Netherlands territorial and military situation on January 1st 1836 in
Victoria II自近代早期以来，“尼德兰”就一直通过控制海外贸易来谋求国内繁荣。他们精明的的商人和造船者推动了与商业有关的不同领域的创新: 金融、信贷和殖民。这种策略导致他们建立了伟大的特许公司，并努力在美洲、非洲和亚洲建立殖民地。拿破仑战争之后，尼德兰政府完全控制了曾经属于 VOC (荷属东印度公司)和 WIC (荷属西印度公司)的殖民地。
在1815年的维也纳会议上，前奥属尼德兰(现在或多或少构成了
比利时被并入尼德兰北部的七个省份，组成了新成立的尼德兰王国。但是到了1830年，北部新教省份和南部天主教省份之间的紧张局势达到了如此程度，以至于内战导致佛兰芒省和瓦隆省脱离，并使
联合王国和
法国承认新成立的比利时王国。
尼德兰直到1839年的伦敦条约，才正式承认比利时的独立，所有大国都在条约中保证了他们的独立。1914年德国入侵比利时，无视普鲁士签署的”一纸空文”是英国卷入第一次世界大战的主要原因。
初始位置
在欧洲, 尼德兰的领土与它的近邻相比无疑是小巫见大巫: 法国 ，
普鲁士 ，和 联合王国。在欧洲之外，荷兰的殖民地相当广阔: 加勒比地区的三个岛屿(库拉索、阿鲁巴岛和荷属西印度群岛的圣马丁) ，苏里南的两个省(圭亚那) ，以及[[非洲]的几个较小的沿海殖民地。其殖民帝国的大部分位于印度尼西亚，荷兰人控制着苏门答腊岛、苏拉威西岛、摩鹿加群岛、婆罗洲的南部和新几内亚的西半部以及一些小岛，除了自己的土地，它还是
卢森堡的领主。
事实上，尼德兰最初的位置，在历史上是相当不准确的，因为荷兰在1836年时只控制了苏门答腊岛，爪哇岛和苏拉威西岛的海岸。这些领土的大部分在1860年以前都不是殖民地。
尼德兰的主要文化是尼德兰文化，但是佛兰德斯文化是被接受的。爪哇文化和摩鹿加文化融入了荷兰王国的人口结构，尽管它们代表了荷兰印尼众多的殖民人口，而这些人口并没有考虑到国内政治。整个1836年，荷兰作为一个次强，国际地位是在第8名到第11名之间波动。
经济
与 联合王国， 法国 ，或者尼德兰南部(1836年， 比利时)不同 ，尼德兰北部并没有早早开始工业化。经济是以农民、劳动者的产出以及更多的剥削为基础的，以及对亚洲更具异国情调和利润丰厚的资源的开发。预算是稳定的，如果需要的话，政府可以通过向荷兰国家银行(Dutch National Bank)借款来支持其第一批政策。因此，尼德兰不会从一群狂热的资本家开始，他们可能会掀起经济现代化所需的工业革命。要做到这一点，尼德兰政府将需要依靠(国家焦点)来培养最初几个本土的尼德兰资本家。
尼德兰经济增长面临的另一个挑战是，即使在尼德兰本土，识字率也相对较低。这种特性破坏了荷兰的技术研究，必须在最初几年内予以纠正，以便这个国家不落后于其强大的邻国。
决议与任务
唯一可供玩家使用的尼德兰独特的决议是签署伦敦条约 ，放弃尼德兰在比利时的领土，以换取威望和与8个列强和比利时的关系。
发展战略
从1836年1月1日起，尼德兰王国有了两条主要发展道路: 重新合并 比利时，或者继续前进，在其他地方弥补损失，尽管这两种策略并不互相排斥。玩家可能希望避免签署伦敦条约(以免失去比利时的核心) ，但要打消任何迅速重新征服尼德兰南部的想法，以编织一个外交网络，使英国或法国干预的可能性降低。
策略 A 吞并比利时
The Dutch demographics as of January 1st 1836.
当荷兰开始宣战时，我们必须意识到，英国将会介入，因为它认为比利时是其势力范围的一部分。在1836年1月的头几天，普鲁士很可能会向荷兰政府提出一个联盟要求，为了抵御英国和（或）法国的干预，最好是接受它。也有可能在最初几个月内，同时寻求与英国和（或）法国结盟，但荷兰与这两个国家的关系相对较差。
其他联盟可以很容易地与
奥地利或
丹麦发生冲突，但在任何情况下，玩家必须在向比利时宣战之前结盟。在整个冲突过程中，荷兰政府需要借入大量的资金，以便为军队提供足够的补给，一旦冲突结束，玩家将能够处理债务偿还。尽管如此，我们还是必须关注贷款利息，这样它们就不会超过政府的总体预算，从而迫使荷兰政府违约。此外，一旦比利时工业(再次)超越尼德兰王国，瓦隆和佛兰德资本家将迅速开始在荷兰、盖尔德兰和弗里斯兰建立工厂。
比利时军队足够强大，可以与尼德兰军队抗衡，所以调动尼德兰后备人力对于玩家来说是不可或缺的。
最好的策略是等待比利时军队进攻。几个月后，英军很有可能在荷兰、西兰或布鲁日登陆，因此在这些沿海省份驻扎军队是不可取的，尽管占领布鲁日应该是玩家的首要考虑之一。当英国人试图海上入侵时，普鲁士军队很可能会把他们赶回大海。随着比利时的占领结束，兼并他们将成为可能，但与英国的战争很可能会拖延几个月，甚至几年。
向英国海军发动海战，只会导致尼德兰海军的灭亡，所以最好把他们留在港口。最有可能的是，英国军队将登陆并占领一些较小的荷兰殖民地: 南美洲的苏里南，新几内亚的西半部，巴厘岛，苏拉威西，甚至苏门答腊岛。在人力允许的省份招募印度尼西亚军队，也可能有助于荷兰殖民者击败英国对印度尼西亚的试探性入侵。从长远来看，普鲁士或许能够与英国达成白和，或者，如果尼德兰政府想要更快地占领伦敦，它可能会提出割让荷属圭亚那(苏里南)或者非洲任何其他无关紧要的殖民地。
一旦比利时恢复了秩序，与英国达成了和平协议，尼德兰政府必须警惕法国宣战。如果法尼关系到那时还没有升温，巴黎很可能会寻求将瓦隆尼亚和/或法兰德斯纳入其领土(或迫使尼德兰政府释放比利时/瓦隆尼亚/法兰德斯)。与普鲁士保持联盟，可能是避免失去南方省份的解决方案。另一方面，统一后的德国可能比法国更具威胁，因此尼德兰可能希望同时利用两个联盟，以维持欧洲大陆的平衡。
策略 B 批准伦敦条约
The Dutch economy needs to target specific production domains that will enable to support itself even in global downturns.
对于一些希望走一条风险更小、更具历史意义的道路的玩家而言，国内战争可能过于沉重。在这种情况下，启动尼德兰工业革命，是荷兰政府的第一个挑战。当权的政党(“保守派”)允许玩家协助资助资本家精心策划的工业项目。
为了让这些项目得以启动，尼德兰必须利用他们的国家关注点，来推动一个本土资本家阶层。荷兰地区，因为是尼德兰人口最密集的地区，是这种社会实验的首要目标。一旦第一家工厂开始建设，全国的焦点必须转移到鼓励尼德兰的农民和劳工转变为工匠(以及后来的职员)。反过来，这些来自荷兰，西兰和乌得勒支的资本家，将资助全国的铁路建设，并在盖尔德兰或弗里斯兰建立工业。
此外，荷兰政府必须应对的一个紧迫挑战是，与法国、斯堪的纳维亚国家，尤其是德国的未成年人相比，荷兰人口的识字率较低(如果比利时重新回到荷兰，因为佛兰德和瓦隆人的识字率都很低，情况尤其如此)。为了使荷兰的研究走上快车道，政府需要通过适当的资助来促进教育(预算屏幕上超过90% 的资金) ，利用国家焦点来促进神职人员的工作，并针对特定的文化技术，如“‘理想主义’或‘实证主义’。一旦每个欧洲荷兰省份都有2% 以上的神职人员，国家的重心就可以转移到其他用途。
印度尼西亚的公司在早期会非常有利可图。开采
柔佛(贵金属)与和殖民阿洛(热带木材)。从19世纪70-80年代开始，印度尼西亚的一些省份将转向生产石油，这些石油在转化为燃料，然后购买民用和军用机动车辆之前用处不大。无论如何，荷兰在19世纪末，已经准备好成为许多新奇工业品和消费品的顶级生产国。
在研究工业和商业技术以提高其生产效率的同时，补贴最初几个荷兰工业生产的继续存在是很重要的，这样可以使荷兰工业保持在前8个工业国家之内，因为声望或军事可能更难以维持。为此目的，保守派需要至少保持足够长的时间，直到工人可以轻松地在工厂之间转换，如果一个工厂的生产暂时恶化，为避免大规模失业，要反过来，移民出国。自由党(“自由党” ，还有“房间-卡索里克党” 如果你已经吞并了法兰德斯，还有“房间-卡索里克党” )和无政府自由党不会容忍政府混入经济，补贴或直接资助工业活动将是不可能的。相反，为了保持偿付能力，荷兰政府必须确保补贴仅作为临时措施使用，并且不会让国家财政长期(超过12至24个月)处于混乱状态。
策略 C 在战争前消除英国在比利时的影响
如果想兼并[比利时] ，但又认为英国的军队是一个太大的挑战，他可以在不签署条约的情况下，努力提升为次强并在在比利时取得友好地位。这样就可以除去[大不列颠]的主导地位，然后进攻比利时。
没有英国的干涉，光是比利时军队就很容易被打败。
如果幸运的话，[比利时]将会崛起成为一个强大的国家，或者陷入一场革命，这将导致英国的影响力丧失，玩家就可以进攻比利时。
要小心，即使[英国]在比利时失去了影响力，他们仍然可以结成普通的联盟。
策略 D 吞并部分比利时，并批准伦敦条约
吞并 比利时肯定会保证尼德兰成为一个大国，然而，许多其他大国，如法国和英国，可能会对尼德兰怀有敌意。批准《伦敦条约》肯定会贬低尼德兰作为大国的地位，并受到其他大国的影响。因此，对于新手和许多参与者，这是一个共同的困境。然而，尼德兰要成为一个强大的国家并与其他强大的国家保持良好的关系，有一个安全的途径: 兼并比利时的一部分，批准伦敦条约。
吞并比利时的一部分。从一开始，尼德兰就必须与普鲁士结盟。然后，等到法国向英国宣战，消灭比利时军队，或者用恢复秩序宣战借口向比利时宣战(不要使用任何其他宣战借口)。在与比利时短暂激烈的战斗之后，它最终会向尼德兰投降。接受比利时的投降，等待几个月，并放弃比利时的一部分(不管是瓦隆尼还是法兰德斯) ，向英国投降。只要把比利时的一块领土交给英国，荷兰就能迅速结束与大不列颠的战争，并维持大国的地位。
批准《伦敦条约》。在荷兰得到比利时的一部分后，是时候与其他大国保持中立与和谐了。迅速恢复与英国的关系，并签署伦敦条约。通过接受条约，尼德兰将能够与邻国保持良好的关系
所以接下来呢?
荷兰必须寻求扩大在亚洲和非洲的殖民地，以保持其强大国家的地位。要求摩洛哥和其他非洲国家让步，然后尽可能多地吞并非洲国家。通过侵略

文莱和其他东南亚国家来建立亚洲的保护国。[文件: 荷兰印尼，东南亚荷兰控股公司]ei
在扩张过程中，许多邻国经常要求军队进入。在荷兰与其他国家加强关系的同时，接受每一个军事准入请求是至关重要的。通过这种方式，像奥地利和法国这样的大国，很可能会结盟。
不要不情愿依靠你的盟友，因为尼德兰(即使整个比利时被吞并)仍是一个小国。即使荷兰成功殖民了非洲大部分地区，它仍然需要其他国家的大量援助。下一步可能是与法国和奥地利一起歼灭俄罗斯，因为他们是强大的盟友。与瑞典结盟可能有助于与俄罗斯开战，因为俄罗斯定期向瑞典宣战。因为打败俄国很困难，尼德兰应该让奥地利和法国加入战争。因此，尼德兰会有两个强大的盟友，奥地利和法国，来对抗俄国。
非洲殖民
尼德兰一开始在殖民点方面存在巨大的不足，这意味着它要么扩大欧洲沿海地区(最容易的方法是吞并比利时) ，要么释放亚洲殖民，以获得足够的殖民点，进一步扩张。
玩家可以决定释放爪哇来释放殖民势力。如果在尼德兰成为列强的时候做到这一点，爪哇将进入荷兰的势力范围。玩家也可以侵略像[丹麦]这样的小欧洲国家的海岸。
