— Holland came forth from the struggle flourishing and powerful. Navigation and commerce received a vast impulse, after the Hollanders (particularly the East India Company, established in 1 602) entered into direct commer- cial relations with India, and deprived the Portuguese of many of their colonies. Batavia, in the island of Java, was the centre of their lucra- tive traffic. The Constitution of the United States, which was mainly the work of the great statesman, Van Olden Barnveldt, was rep...ublican. The States General, which were formed by deputies from the seven provinces, possessed the power of legislation ; the High Council, with the stadtholder at its head, conducted the government ; the affairs of war, however, and the supreme command over the sea and land forces, belonged to the stadtholder alone. The arts and sciences at the same time flourished prosperously ; the study of antiquity, in particular, met with unusual attention in the Dutch universities. But even Protestant Holland did not remain free from the mischiev- ous wars of religion.
