Anglo-Dutch War, Second

Years: 1665 - 1667

The Second Anglo-Dutch War is fought between England and the United Provinces from March 4, 1665 until July 31, 1667.

England tries to end the Dutch domination of world trade.

After initial English successes, the war ends in a Dutch victory.

English and French resentment, however, will soon lead to renewed warfare.

"We cannot be certain of being right about the future; but we can be almost certain of being wrong about the future, if we are wrong about the past."

—G. K. Chesterton, What I Saw in America (1922)
