* The alliances concluded by the States General with Henry IV of France and with Elizabeth of England against Philip II effected little for the advancement of Dutch interests. Shortly before his death, Philip again tried conciliation by erecting the provinces into a separate, but only nominally independent realm under the Archdukes Albert and Isabella, his daughter, who were united in marriage. The establishment of the new government at Brussels failed to conciliate the revolted provinces. Unde...r the new sovereigns, war was then vigorously pursued, with occasional brilliant victories on both sides, but finally this continuous warfare pro- duced a state of mutual exhaustion. In spite of the opposition of Maurice and his strict Calvinist adherents, * A very severe placard was issued by the provincial States of Groningen against Catholics and Anabaptists. A fine of ten Da- lers was inflicted on the persons giving their houses for a reunion of Catholics or Anabaptists. The same fine was placed on the preacher for the first offense; in the case of a repeated offense the U tter was subject to fifteen days' detention on bread and water, and for the third offense to banishment.
