no more half measures walter
Which one was that? Johan de Witt?
That’s the one
Okay, I take back all the times I’ve made fun of the Dutch
No, they still suck ass. Imagine having a monarch and (only) eating the prime minister.
Plenty of places still have both and haven’t eaten a single PM
funny thing is, it was monarchists who did it
like officially we were a republic at the time, though there was still some monarchical stuff happening around the title of stadhouder.
long story short, the stadhouder position is abolished under Johan de Witt, Orangists mad, a little fucky wucky (the Rampjaar, Dutch for slight oopsie) happens, Orangists still mad, decide to murder and eat the brothers De Witt
Idk… the PMs have been proven to be more annoying at least in modern times.
they did stop the Stuarts being in charge that one time and I’m willing to forgive a lot for anti-jacobites
They talked about this guy in Hell on Earth
“They ate their own guys!”
hungy for revolution and also the liver of the prime minister
I’m convinced this is why Rutte resigned, didn’t want to end up like the brothers de Witt
tarrare with a time machine
Why?
Presumably he was rich.
The Dutch actually did what we always talk about and ate the fucking rich
